I saw a thread on Reddit where people are commenting on the most annoying commercials. I’ll start with the one for Sling where people are spitting out water. Gross…

Ozempic with the dancing people and the St. Jude's ones with the two boys. I know that probably makes me a horrible person and I admire what St Judes does, I just hate those commercials.

The slurping
This is not okay! I can't imagine having to see that over and over. As well as how the fuck was she slurping freaking steaming hot cup o' noodles. |

Any commercial advertising a solution for 'bathroom odors' and the toilet seat is always left up. For heaven's sake, people, close the lid! It's there for a reason!

Carrying on the toilet theme. I saw on advert that showed a woman entering an office bathroom, put down a bottle and sit down. I had headphones on so I wasn't sure what was being promoted. I thought it was an air fresher. No, it was a new water bottle that adds scent to the experience of water, meaning you drink more, then need the loo more. They put the bottle on the floor beside the toilet...ugh Found it on YouTube m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pnvtyw3MDto&pp=ygUNQWlyIHVwIGFkdmVydA |

I don't see many ads, but I feel as though I see ads where I don't know what's being advertised fairly regularly, and I can't figure out how these make it to the air. I can't be the only person who watches them and says "What the heck was that ad for??"  And of course, the medication ads---I get that they are required to list the side effects, but the 2 specific things that get me are the ones where the side effect is essentially the problem you're trying to correct, AND the ones who say "Ask your doctor to try Bestlifezol: Don't take if you are allergic to Bestlifezol." Wait, what? If I'm asking my doctor to try it, doesn't that imply I've never had it before? And if I've never had it before...then how I am supposed to know if I am allergic to it??  |

Don't take if you are allergic to Bestlifezol." Oh my gosh, I say that all the time. Like how do you know your are allergic unless you take it first...then I say, don't people have enough sense to not take a drug if they find out they ARE allergic...I mean do you have to tell them to stop taking it? Apparently so. All current Burger King commercials annoying me because that guy singing " At BK, have your way" has a terrible singing voice. I think he's a rapper in real life. He may can rap, but he sure can't sing. His voice is so terrible and annoying (at least to me). I quickly grab the remote and mute it the second one of their commercials come on. I guess he is better though than the creepy Burger King dude that you to stare at you through the window. Glad they retired him. I saw a McDonald's ad this morning for the Quarter Pounder saying you need more than one napkin to eat it and ketchup and mustard was squirting out of the sandwich and onto their hands, faces and clothes and it was disgusting. Why would they think that looks appetizing - gross! |

Ozempic with the dancing people and the St. Jude's ones with the two boys. I know that probably makes me a horrible person and I admire what St Judes does, I just hate those commercials. Along those same lines, anytime I hear the Sarah McLachlan song I immediately turn the channel. I just hate those ASCPA commercials. |

The Charmin ads with the bears--really stupid IMO. I was just coming back to this thread to see if someone mentioned these. I do not get how these bears have been part of their advertising for so long. The last one I saw the dad comes out of the bathroom to waggle his bare (or bear ) a$$ at his entire family to show them how fresh & clean it is. Um, no thank you. I'd much rather they find a new Mr. Whipple to yell at us not to squeeze the Charmin at this point. |

Also, every single political ad sucks. I don't care who it's for, or what party, I hate almost all of them. And if by chance I don't hate one upon initially hearing it, I do by the 795th time for sure. Even people I want to win just tend to sound less than stellar in these ads, and the "mud-slinging" ads are all just awful. The overly dramatic fear-mongering makes me roll my eyes so much I'm surprised I haven't strained something by now. |

Any toilet/making going to the bathroom a better experience.
Ozempic
Any homemade commercial…usually a plumber…awful.
Any lawyer commercial. I can guarantee I’ll never use them.
Any about feminine hygiene, shaving.
Anything that focuses on a man’s junk.
Most of those aren’t necessarily a bad thing, they are just starting to get way to detailed and personal. It’s a little much.
Any political ads. I don’t care who you support, all of them are annoying.
All BK commercials are awful. Especially with the king guy. Totally creeps me out.

The singing is so awful in these and they play all the time! I try to mute it every time!
I hate the Kars for Kids commercial with the kids singing. Ugh. It's trying too hard to be cute. It's not.
Most of the commercials that are trying to be funny had to have been written by 12 year old boys. That's the only demographic that would think that that crap is funny.

Dancing and singing about A1C I told DH that I was glad he didn't take __ because otherwise, he would have to take up singing and dancing.
Seriously, who on this planet is dancing about a medication? If it saved my life, I'd be happy but I would not break into song and dance.

not tv but radio----the LUME commercials. the inventor and start of the commercial is so annoying. i've seen posts that complain that the product itself has a bad smell.

unfortunately I can sing the song, along with the other ear worms..BK, K4K....I guess that is what marketing is about. Kill me silently |
