    "ING US is now Voya"

    Who comes up with these vacuous meaningless nonsense-syllable corporate names? Do they use some kind of random Corporate Name Generator?

    When they rapidly edit back and forth as if parlaying to the most ADHD of people.
     
  3. The people who do the voiceover work for the current IPhone and the Samsung Galaxy note commercials make me want to start breaking things. The content is equally bad.

    Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake?

    Update, my wife's doctor didn't used the bad stuff, and the problems she had were unrelated except to the extend fibromyalgia is related to too many surgeries.

    Any and all commercials depicting men as these mindless, incompetent, stupid, useless, less then human creature, come on folks. No wonder men are reverting back to cave man behavior.

    I passionately HATE creepy "Allen" in the Dairy Queen commercial where he proclaims the chicken strips to be "hashtag delicious" and "Blizzard good". Die, idiot hipster *****.

    Love all commercials. I watch them with my eyes averted and the mute engaged. So...they're all fabulous.

    I really really hate the fact that now whenever I hear Smokestack Lightning I think of ED.

    all the progressive commercials with Flo are wearing thin for me.

    on the plus side is the cars.com commercial where the girl in the red dress and black frame glasses is on a first date and the guy breaks out a puppet of her and starts to kiss it and she says "i think we're done here..." :laugh: cracks me up everytime.
     
  13. ALL JEWELRY COMMERCIALS.

    Especially the one where the guy gets her a WATCH.

    IRL, if a guy gives a woman a jewelry box, it better not have a watch inside.

    That damn Nissan Sentra commercial with Billy Idol's version of "Mony Mony" is about to make me lose my mind. It's been in heavy rotation for a while anyway, but now it's just inescapable as if they just keep buying more and more timeslots. Doesn't matter what channel, what time, what show, you'll probably see it about six times in any given hour.

    History Channel's "Curse Of Oak Island" - constantly. 'Something from Solomon's temple may be buried on Oak Island'-Yet another reason for me to hate reality shows.

    Every commercial is a music video now.
    Why can't they tell me anything about the product.

    My mute button is worn.
     
  23. I really cannot stand the AT&T commercials with the girl who is passively forced awkward = funny. It assumes that people are actually interested in their problem they created. Another "need a little help" awkward moment that was sort of funny once a few years ago, repeated over and over again.

    Must be generational thing.

    There's a series of direct TV ads with rob Lowe that are pretty bad.

  25. Hey, up here ING became Tangerine. At least that's a real word and doesn't sound like a Soviet rocket or female Russian singer, although what the connection to banking and investment services is I knoweth not.
