Do you hate them? Or do you look forward to your programs being interrupted while some man goes on and on about STD medicine and their thousands of side effects? What are your favorite ones nowadays?
I like commercials....either they make me laugh or some of them amuse me with their stupidity levels. My personal favorite now is the Starbucks commercial with the men singing Eye Of the Tiger as a man goes through his day. The main guy gets up, drinks some coffee and they start singing as he goes to work. They basically narrate what he's doing with the song, and as he goes out of the elevator, another guy with Starbucks coffee enters, and they start singing for him...it cuts off there. I don't know why I like it so much, but the first time I saw it, I cracked up.
What's your favorite one?

I used to like the old rice krispies commercials, but that's it.

commercials are mostly either straight to the point or totally random these days like the one with the audi tt and jimi hendrix playing and lots of funky ass colours. random shit i surpose its because anyone that watches adverts turns into a buying machine once they get to credit card age,

The new Geico ones (The ones where you can`t tell it`s a Geico commercial) are pretty funny. I don`t really have a favorite one now though... One sticks in my mind from a while ago... I think it`s a Mountain Dew Code Red commercial. There is this basketball mascot that is about to dunk after jumping on a trampoline and some guy jumps up and blocks it. He he, I liked that one, doesn`t sound funny now, but if you`ve seen it... It`s hilarious.
Commercials are good for a break. It seems in this day and age where any kind of prolonged concentration is an amazing feat of brain power, they are welcome every 15 minutes (30 for movies on television is my preferance). Every 10 minutes just takes the piss though.
