Have you ever seen a comerical that you hate so much that you refuse to buy what they are trying to sell or you refuse to go to that restaurant? I have. My latest two ads are for Subway and Dominos.Subway is trying to scare you into going to their restaurants.A couple pulls up to the drive thru and instead of asking for food ,they are asking for "Thunder Thighs".So if I am watching the calories or want to eat healthy I can Only go to Subway?If I want to go to a fast food restaurant I will automantically become fat. Just by one visit? Subway does have a healthy altenative to fast food but to bully people won't help.Now I will get fat because every time I see a Subway comerical, I get the urge to go to Wendy's or McDonalds.The other comerical was meant to be funny but it makes me loose my appetite and change the channel.it is the new Dominos oreo pizza.a father and son are eating a oreos pizza ans the father has a oreo mustache that grows into a oreo beard.Thak G-d Pizza Hut has the 5-5-5 deal. I won't try the new oreo pizza and I won't call for Dominos until the comerical is over. How about you, is there a comerical that you hate? Or a company that you boycott?

Herre in the UK therre is one television advert that drives me absolute nuts. Barry Scott and his shouting about Cillit Bang, some kind of miracle cleaner. The guy shouts the whole time and it really bugs me. I wouldn't want the stuff now, even if it was the most wonderful cleaner in the world

Sounds like he went to the U.S. school of comerical "talking". All of our new products salesmen shout.

I know what you mean. If a comerical would just show the food that they are offering, that is the best comerical.

BOB and his male inhancment commercials drive me crazy
Head on apply directly to the forehead over and over
I think that if someone wants me to buy there product they should at least make a decent commercial that would make me want to buy the product.

There is a local furniture store company that has the most abbrasive salesman announcer on their commericals that I've ever heard. His voice and his constant yelling just drives me crazy. There is no way I would ever purchase anything from that company. Several years ago I made a personal vow that if I ever meet that guys, I'm going to have to cause him great bodily harm. When and if that ever happens, and I end up in jail for a couple of days, it will have been worth it. I'm sure however the judge will let me off, when I make him/her listen to the commericals for about an hour straight.
