I am more than confident that Trivago has been mentioned somewhere in here already, but the one where he says “you have 10 seconds to book a room.” Why would anyone only have 10 seconds to book a room?

Or the Auto Value commercial where the guy is fixing his vehicle himself and needs a part but cant figure out the steps to get it so has to call in and ask the expert... and the reply is “go to a store and buy it” which I guess they’re suggesting is expert advise.

“The Source” “hey google” commercials keep setting off my google home. First it was playing some stupid dance music and now they have a new one that’s shutting off the lights. The CRTC needs to update their regulations and start getting rid of this kinda crap. I don’t understand how deliberately pissing people off is going to make me want to shop at The Source. “But you’ll remember the name” yes, I’ll remember it to boycott it for the rest of my life.

That Hyundai commercial with the dorky f-ing loser taking his wife to the hospital for child birth needs to die faster than the OK tires commercial. What the hell is with every hockey season being riddled with the same crap commercials being replayed over and over? I want to punch a marketer's throat.

You remembered it was a Hyundai commercial. I would say Mission Accomplished for them.

Remembering a brand for all the wrong reasons isn’t a good business model. This poster if anything now feels negativity towards Hyundai, which is a step back in the purpose of marketing.

Nothing worse than the pansy in the Old Spice commercials. Grow a set, son.

I also like how that whole ad revolves around country living and then ends with "subway now delivers"

Not to the country they don't.

I believe she is eating a wrap and not a sub. A wrap would be slightly easier to eat while riding.

There was just a Ricky's Grill commercial during the hockey game advertising some burger that they serve. I'm bothered by the fact that they put the cheese under the burger patty. This just seems to wrong. I don't think I have ever seen a burger with cheese under the meat.

I hope the neighbours of that stupid teenage girl and her mother called the cops for a noise complaint. It’s also amazing to me that people think having to ask a machine what time it is, is somehow more convenient that just looking at a bedside clock. It’s neither quicker nor easier.

That Edo commercial about don't be a Ryan looks like the girl doing one of those revenge clips against her boyfriend Ryan and sleeping with that dude. Totally has that vibe going for it.

Well I tried mini wheats with hot milk, they just turned to complete mush. Why didn't the guy in the commercials that looks like he wants to rape me tell me that would happen?

The fireman with sensitive skin who sounds like a young Rocky is starting to grind my gears. You're not only man on Earth who has to shave everyday for work.

They have been getting bad. I watch most hockey games on Center Ice and they play the same commercials every break. The one that annoys me the most is the one where a kid gets a bike and trains his whole life. Then he goes by a car and is saved because the car had child safety locks. This has been in cars since the 70s and this is what you push? The only difference is that it now shows on the dash that your kid tried to jump into traffic.

Also just in general, showing your commercial on every commercial break is not going to make me like your product more, it is going to be the opposite.

point being, why would anyone need to eat anything while riding a horse?

Not sure if mentioned earlier in thread, but that Huawei phone commercial - aside from the fake "cool", they seem to be suggesting this is the phone for stalkers? Good for spying on people? Well, I guess we already knew that was a Huawei issue...

Came here looking for this to be mentioned.
The triumphant music for when he mentions finding Gilette, lol.
Such an overly emo commercial for shaving.
