Commercial Break
Friday, August 17, 2007 by 2of3 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Don't you hate it when you are watching a really good film on the tube and every 15 minutes some damn commercial interupts?
As much as we hate them though, they have a way of sticking in your brain. I often catch myself humming some meaningless tune at work, only to realize that it's the damn coca-cola jingle!
Here's a list of lines that have become famous and (some) hated through the years
1. "When you have a headache this big"
2. "Where's the biff?"
3. "How do you spell relief?"
4 "I've fallen...... and I can't get up!"
5. "Trix are for kids"
6. "Coocoo for cocopuffs"
7. "They're magically delicious"
8. "Mikey likes it"
Not to forget pokin' the fatass pilsberry dough-boy in the belly button..... "hmm-hmm!"
What are your favorites (or most hated)?

Well aren't you glad you don't work with me, then. You see, I hate advertising with a passion, particularly TV ads, so you'd get zapped away with the remote the moment some whiny assed jingle came to your lips....and yeah, I always carry a remote specifically for such occasions.

"Consult your doctor if your erection continues longer than 4 hours" - Real nice to watch with kids in the room watching a sitcom with their Mom 
That and local news stations self promoting themselves incessantly. "Your News Leader" AGHHHH.

Ive always hated the fast-talk at the end of some adverts, which usually ends with "some restrictions may apply"

or "The news team you can trust."
Like those other stations have newscasters that incessantly lie?
