    I think the implication you are making is that there is a mystical time ("Dinnertime") which is universal and, during which, your mind experiences heightened sensitivity to what you feel disgusting. Ignoring the (sadly all-too-common) idea that sexual matters are things which have any connection to disgust, one really wonders how disgust is related to "dinnertime".

    Dinnertime: between 5PM-7:30PM around these parts...not a time for those kind of commercials.

    Any fragrance commercial with a heavily accented french girl whispering the dialog.

    Sonic's "Chicken Judge" commercial. Irritating as hell.

    For Canadian audiences .... there's a series of commercials for a cable TV hockey package starring Mark Messier. He's always wearing this stupid, demented smile - it's kinda creepy especially when he intrudes into someone's home and plocks down on the couch with a family or between a couple watching a hockey game.

    Any auto ads with hanging light bulbs:

    I've seen the exact same motif in GMC, Buick, and Ford Fusion ads. I don't know why ad execs seem to be in love with that particular image.

  12. Pretty much all McDonalds commercials...especially the newest holiday one with the kids wrapping presents and the dad comes in with NUGGETS. Awwww, how sweet.

    1991-2004. If Bob had been destitute, flat broke and busted, that one song would've set him up for life :)

    Any "local" car dealership ad on radio or tv. It seems the louder and more obnoxious they are the more you're gonna get screwed by them.

    You don't like seeing sluts shake their swollen distended bellies to celebrate the coming of Jesus? I truly believe that KMart execs hate Christmas and want to make everyone miserable this time of year with their unfunny, stupid, unclassy crap ads. I stopped shopping there after last year's ad where guys were shaking their junk to the tune of a Christmas carol.
     
  17. Went through the last few pages and saw no mention of this one, so it must just be me, but geesh it's annoying.

    The Geico series featuring Salt n' Pepa "Push It". If I were in the market, I'd refuse to buy this based entirely on this ad campaign.

    I agree this one really sucks. I saw it last night but just never got around to posting it here.

    Are these those commercials where they two duffuses are in a car talking back and forth about nothing? Yeah, I dislike those too (or as well, if that be the case). Wish they had had a MVA on the way to the Sonic and never arrived . . . .sheeeeesh

    Intel commercials with that Big Bang Theory guy.

    If you're on Charters cable system they've been running a couple of commercials for their service for the last few months that I can't stand! Its a long, weird musical-type commercial that they play incessantly that includes a "jingle" with their telephone number. Everytime it starts I hit the mute button!

    I saw this one multiple times over the past week and I hate it.

    I got buns. Who wants to see my buns?

    Uh, no thanks.
