Whaaaaaaaat.

The Spongmonkeys are awesome. And yes, it's Spongmonkeys, not Spongemonkeys.

The very first Spongmonkeys video:

Oh, I guess my meaning was unclear. Let me try again.

If you think all commercials are annoying, then it is clear that you haven't seen this one, because it proves that thought wrong.

Was that clearer?

I hated the Quiznos Spongmonkeys ads so much that I never step foot into another Quiznos again.

I thought the ad was annoying and I really didn't want to think about something that kind of look like a rat or a mouse, when I'm eating a sandwich.


Then again, I can also thank those ads as well. After I stop eating there and had my health scare in 2007, I learn that Quiznos wasn't a very healthy place to eat a sandwich and now that is why I never been back after they ended those ads.


So in a way, I hated those ads but they also help me in the long run as well.

It's just their voices that I find annoying. They are at just the right pitch and level to really get to me.

The commercials themselves are funny and enjoyable. It's just the voices that make them annoying.
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

I find ads for shows I don't watch annoying.

Call me weird.

Beyond that, though, I don't watch enough TV to know any truly annoying commercials.

I find any commercial annoying when they interrupt a movie's credits song that I like so much. I could care less what will be next or what is going to air during the week. I can watch that during the commercial breaks of a show.

ARG! Meant the progressive lady. yikes.

also the "Lots and Lots of Trains!" Informercials. Actually all informercials actually.


Other hate: the T-mobile ones with the lady who wants a line for her dog Foxy. Throughout my legal Youtube-viewing of Code Geass she WOULDNT LEAVE ME ALONE. i was hoping Kallen and the Guren Mk II would show up and smash the window and end the commercials for GOOD.

Finally remembered a specific commercial that irks me. That Bud Light ad with the guy and the women's book club. He's about to leave the house, sees the beer, and pretends to have read/liked the book, just to get the beer. The women are complete ditzes, and aren't at all suspicious as to why a guy wants to discuss relationships in the book Little Women with a bunch of real women. And then he delivers this little gem:
Woman: "So...You like Little Women?"
Guy: "Yeah, I'm not picky."

Would it be too much to ask for just one of the women to say, "Oh I see what you're up to"? Apparently.
Naturally, my mother finds the ad absolutely hilarious.

Here are mine:
That Staples one where the idiot is screaming "WOW! THAT'S A LOW PRICE!"
The Smiling Bob commercials (shivers)
Just the Burger King in general


The Staples one is very annoying. There's also this commercial about RaisinBran (or some other cereal) that comes on a lot on the radio station I like. They're talking about what they put in the cereal, etc., etc., and then they say "and we add some RAISIN juice." The "RAISIN" part is spoken like it's the most amazing thing in the universe! It's pretty annoying.

Oh, I have new commercials to add to this. XD

The Keystone beer commercials. I can't stand them. I think they are the stupidest things since:

the most recent Axe commercial I've seen, where this guy and girl are on a date. These machines keep swooping in to give the guy a makeover or something as the date progresses, and the girl remains interested in him because of those. At the end of the commercial, it says "Women get bored easily." What? What.

Anyways. So ridiculous. XD I can't stand them. XD

RD, you reminded me of those stupid Twix ads. (Not sure if they're still running them, though.)

The one I remember the most has the guy and his wife and baby getting into their car, about to go shop for Mother's day or something. (It was going to be her first one as a mom, I think.) Anyway, the guy spots these three giggling teenage girls on the sidewalk swatting each other with pillows, and he stares. His wife notices, and she starts going, "Honey? Honey?" Until he turns to her and she says, "Whatcha lookin' at, sweetie?" Then you hear, Need a moment? and the guy takes out a twix, eats it, and cleverly says, "Why, I'm looking at potential babysitters, honey!" The ditz says, "Aw, you're so thoughtful!"

Argh, argh, argh!

I also hate all those commercials where they show someone doing some mediocre task the normal way, and the normal way is so terrible, and the person gets all frustrated and annoyed, totally overacting. Then, they show the person using the magical new product, and BAM! the person is all smiles!!
I wish I wasn't so observant: before I noticed they were doing the above, those kinds of ads didn't bother me. XD

I hadn't seen the one you described, so I looked it up on youtube and I have to say that was a hilariously funny commercial. I will now go buy three packs of Twix in its honor.

Dude, those kinds of commercials make me laugh SO HARD. XD I saw one once for some kind of portable fan or something. There was a black & white scene with this woman holding the hose to a bicycle pump, and pumping it into her face to cool off. XDD It was the funniest thing ever. XD

But wait! It gets [s]worse[/s]better! Ladies and gentlemen of CAA, I give you... the Jump Snap, the ropeless jump rope! It's like a jump rope, but without any rope! The aforementioned black and white "too incompetent to use the normal product" shots are, well, see for yourself. For $50, you too can jump around and flail your arms like an idiot!
