Anything with a stoner panda (Snapple Green Tea, Wanchai Ferry) is a guarantee that I'm not going to buy it.

I hate the mom in the Windows 7 ad who is photoshopping the perfect family greeting card from various pictures -- at the end, she says something like "Windows 7 gives me the perfect family that nature never could!" and her husband seriously looks so hurt that he's about to cry. I know they're a fictional ad couple but I hope he leaves her bitch-ass and runs off with a Mac user. I always watch thinking the mom needs to photoshop some better outfits into that family picture while she's at it. |

Has anybody seen the Temptations kitty treats ad with the cat rolling around in the basket of warm clean laundry? Adorable. But don't watch it if you hate cats.

I'll join you in the gutter because I was thinking the same thing. I thought, "Um, is J-Lo trying to tell me to use that razor on my flower? Er, I mean, 'goddess'?"
Commercials currently driving me up the wall:
- The Katy Perry ProActiv commercial. It's all, "Look how quirky I am! Bubbles! Look at me hold this lavender pump up to my ear like its a phone! I'm kooky!"
- The commercial where the mom uses all her wonderful free minutes/texts/emails to tell her family that their grandparents are moving in. At the end she asks her daughter if she wants help composing a tweet, and she is just really, really creepy about it.

I assume the mom is being kind of weird about it on purpose--it reminds me of awkward moments where I have to relate to first year college students. But if she's just creepy, then...I could see how that's annoying. |

Cadbury bunny ads have returned. This makes me happy.
Also, the GE "ecoimagination" ads with the dancing baby elephant are delightful. I realize that GE is probably one of the top polluters in the world (actually, I have no idea what their polluting record is) but when the dancing baby elephant is on my screen, I kinda don't care.

Why is Virgin Mobile marketing phones to stalkers? It's not funny. It's creepy.

Actually makes me miss the revolting ads from last year with the insanely long armpit hair and the detached lips in the locker room. At least those were memorable- the stalker ones are creepy but I saw the one with the girl in the tree about 15 times before I remembered what they were selling.
