Those ones just make me feel sorry for the guy, he spends the whole commercial talking to himself or his imaginary friends.

Or where he's trying to pick up the waitress who's obviously 'EFF off creep, I'm not going to marry you!'

Can't stand the Subway commercials the way the guy annunciates his "S"'s. Deliciiou(s) (s)ubway (s)ub on (s)ale. The announcer has got that lisp thing going on. Drives me crazy.



his "S's"

Holy crap, I came in to post this as well. "Hey, listen to this totally spontaneous stuff going on as I walk around this pub! Isn't it totally sponataneously spontaneous?! Hey look theres Nancy straddling a bar stool next to the VLT like a truckstop hooker! Oh, Nancy... Oh you!"

Sadly, there is someone out there. that listens to this add going "It's so true! My life at my local hangout is totally like this! What an amazing place, I must go there now!"

That reminds me. In that Telus commercial where they do vampire guys who get hit by the Hockey guy, When the hockey guy is in the living room, what does that girl say, to the other guy? Troy I'm, sholidshs for you? I listened to just that part a few times and just don't understand it.

I can't stand the current Tim Horton's ad. It is full of sweeping generalizations about how great Canadians are. As much as I like being a Canadian, it really shows an insecurity within the Canadian mentality to constantly brag about ourselves.

Also - if these people are at the Cat every day after work, they are alcoholics.

I will say the Cat & Fiddle has been around for a long time, well before all these other pubs popped up.

There's a horribly annoying car commercial (I have no idea for what car since I mute and ignore it as soon as it comes on) that has a couple going through different scenarios of life without saying anything but "ah".
Makes. Me. Stabby.

Oh, and those new milk commercial where instead of just calling it milk or yogurt, they spew the ingredient list.

Crawl in a hole and die.

I have a fantasy where I drive into the Spence parking lot with a truck and some massive speakers and play their commercials on repeat at full blast. I then leave.

"woooooo!"

"woooooo!"

"woooooo!"

Oh- and that Tim Hortons commercial on the radio where they apologize for being Canadian. "Sorry for being so good at hockey!" Who are "we" apologizing to? Countries that don't like hockey?

Any Rav4 commercial lately. I either change the channel or mute my tv as soon as they come on. Terrible.
