can't believe no one has mentioned the selloffvacations.com ad with that ######ed jingle. I'm usually indifferent when it comes to crappy ads but that one makes my blood boil for some reason.

That CIBC commercial, where the wife is holding up signs as her husband is blabbing about retirement. The stupid look on her face drives me nuts. I think I had a bad experience with that stupid look on her face from someone, earlier in life.

Ha ha...

Me too. That's one of the reasons I hate it. All the way from Ft Lauderdale to Calgary, every 23 minutes "Hola Maria. How's Canada?".

I know it’s not a commercial but the guy who does all the promotions for the Fan 960

His voice very over the top way too deep, and it sounds like he has something stuck up his noise after every word he says

What about the Toyota ads with the Book of Truck guy? Those ads make no sense and are quite lame. The only good thing is that they are only 10 seconds long.

I hate all those bank commercials that make investing seem so much more confusing than it actually is.

Agreed. Come to think of it, the reason I hate the Toyota Echo was the way they were advertising it when it came out. I don't remember what it was that annoyed me, but I always have and always will hate the Echo.

Exactly. Toyota should fire their advertising agency. Whose idea was it to take just about the worst song possible and make it worse?
