You know, that one where the guy starts taking Viagra and at work everyone keeps asking him all these questions...did he shave his moustache, cut his hair, got a promotion, etc...

If I were walking around with my first stiffy in awhile, though chemically enhanced, I don't think I would want alot of people asking me unrelated, stupid questions. Or even related question, just my buddy amd me giving each other the thumbs up from across the room....

I get sick of the body humor routines. One is an obese little boy shoving Bar-B-Q chicken or some such into his face and getting sloppily messy. I don't know what they are selling, as I change the channel when I see it and I usually don't come back. Then there are other gross ones that shouldn't even be on TV, but, "Tee Hee", the company thinks its soooo cute! Makes me want to barf.

I liked that old ebay commercial they used to have about the wife selling her husband's old thing and he buying it back; but I agree, the recent one is due to be dropped into the toilet, IMO.

I hate that commercial with that little boy running around the house with his goldfish in his mouth while his mom chases him and finally gets him to spit the fish out of his mouth into some water.- OH GEEZ IT IS SO GROSS!

The only way the new ebay vomitorial could be worse would be if Carrot Top was in it. My husband pulled me over, saying "you have to see this". No, I didn't.

EXACTLY, nharmon! That's one of those GROSS advertisments that I was referring too! The sponsors must think it's so very cute to have that, but most of America only wants to regurgitate.

BTW: does anyone else here hold a grudge against commercial products because the ads offend you? I sure do!

The commercials that I hated the very most were the political messages that were played over and over and over again 3 days prior to the last election. It was so bad that I wouldn't watch TV during that time. THEY MADE ME SICK! It was a whole bunch of liars trying to out lie the other liars. Get me a barf bag!!

Now, the most sickening commercial is the ones from Geico Insurance Company. Stupid and very repetative. Call and you may save 15 percent in 15 minutes. NOT ON YOUR LIFE. With that big advertising budget, guess who pay the bill for it? Their policy holders. They advertise more than the manufacturers of medicine.
