Commercials you can't stand!

[GirlySports]

Bell commercials are the worst (yes worse than Telus), especially that ugly girl breaking up with the guy because he doesn't have Bell.

[TurnedTheCorner]

Bell changes their commercials up much more frequently, thankfully.

[Hemi-Cuda]

the new Molson one featuring people from around the world describing the crazy antics from that wacky Canadian. makes it seem like people from Canada are desperate for some kind of identity

[TurnedTheCorner]

Aren't Canadians desperate for some kind of identity?

You can spot an InVigor farmer by the way they bitch about the weather 24/7 and complain about how hard things are for them. Wait, that's every farmer. Nevermind.

Spence Diamonds new one. Their ads are typically crap and annoying, but the new one takes the cake. There is a guy and woman discussing the award they won for some BS and she says HE won the award, he says THE STAFF won the award, then she says the CUSTOMERS won the award and then they are both thanking CANADA?!? The tone of the voices they use sound like they're doing one those ads to feed the hungry in Biafra or some such nonsense. So terrible.


"whooo!!!" (supposed to be the Spence Diamonds sound at the end of their commercials)

[Table 5]

Yeah, Spence just keeps finding new and worse ways to annoy us. That's not an easy task.

The other one I am really tired of listening to on the FAN is the Cal Tire one where the guy calls in asking about how to get winter tires installed. Spring is just around the corner, yet they are still playing that add every 10 minutes.

Anyone heard that commercial for that new go karting place in Calgary? Speeders or whatever. It was cringe worthy bad. They run two commercials in a row, ones a typical low budget commercial saying how great it is and to bring your office groups and what not there.

Then there's a seperate commercial right after, with some girl and guy with terrible voice acting going "Did you just hear that commercial for speeders? Wow, we should bring our whole office there next week" "Good idea, that's sound likes a great way to strengthen team building in our company!" Or some such jumble. It sounds straight out of grade 7 drama class.

I thought I might be the only person in the viewing area that hated that commercial, LOL.

The Dormisoft Pajama Jeans commercial. Those things are fecking heinous. Who cares if they fit any size from petite to plus size? No one should be wearing that #####. And ooooo, you get a $2.00 t-shirt with them if you order.

There is one tunnel connecting two subway lines here in Shanghai that provides a total advertising experience. The walls on both sides are huge video screens and they play the audio of the commercials too. It is essentially like walking down a long, double-sided movie theatre. Over the last 2 days they have been showing Nescafe ads along with playing very soothing music and the whole tunnel has been infused with the scent of Nescafe. I've never encountered this before. I can't say I hate it, but it's getting to be a little much for me to have advertising simultaneously stimulating so many of my senses in a public environment.

The Samsung note 2 commercial about the game launch.

I can't stand any of em but the doofus with glasses needs to meet the blunt end of a shovel

[troutman]

LOL - Mike Richards in the Morning on TSN. Sure, all the hot women in the office are stopping to check out a short old man with a huge head!

[DuffMan]

The whole Ford one where the guys sits in his garage giving out answers is completely ######ed, but the end is beyond ######ed when he and his wife pack a truck in a trailer and go somewhere where they can both drive different trucks.

Really starting to tire of that Cat and Fiddle at on Fan960 where the guy is trying really hard to make it seem like the place is straight out of Dublin, and everyone knows everyone, and man are they having a great old time. I've been to that place....it's pretty much like every other pub in town.

Plus it used to be a funeral home!

I really hate yet another Keg commercial.

The hipster chick goes to the Keg, takes a picture of some food she orders and posts it to I would guess, some social media, where her hipster friends who are out doing some hip stuff, are immediately updated on her status and her food at the Keg. They all come join her for a hip good time at the Keg. People who take pictures of their food and post to the internet for their friends really bug me, so I can't stand this commercial.

edit - just saw a Wendys commercial where a guy takes a picture of the redheads grilled sandwich and is going to put it on Twitter. so stupid

[redforever]

The one about class size in schools where the photographer is trying to take a class picture and can't because there are too many students in the class.
