    I hate ads that try too hard to be funny, or outwardly aspire to be popular serialized ads. There's nothing sadder than an imitator who doesn't succeed at aping what he's trying to ape.

    So here are my newest two most hated commercials.

    1) Some commercial for a car -- BWM, I think. The opening sequence shows a couple of kids opening presents and screaming like banshees. GAH!!!!

    2) Zales Jewelers (I think). These two dudes are wandering around the mall with their respective Zales bags. As they pass each other, they spot each other's Zales purchases and they high-five. Like this is some cool club or something. Stupid.

    Those Bob Evans commercials for "homestyle Italian pasta."

    Uh, we are not in Italy. Therefore, this is an oxymoron. Unless they're serving Spaghetti-O's.

    Also, every Peyton Manning commercial, of which there are tragically many.

    I actually really like that one, I think it's clever for a car commercial. Of course, it's sort of an inside joke, as that commercial shows clips of the "n64 kid" video that was all over the internet a few years back.

    The new Old Navy commercial (though "Old Navy commercial" should say it all) with the people jumping in to christmas packages and emerging somewhere else with Old Navy clothing on. That and the stupid "get your fash-on" jingle.

    I despise those Texas Instrument commericals with that girl and her blasted elephant who've I've named Migraine (because that's what the commerical gives me). I know it's been mentioned before...but she won't go away.
    "How does it work? Oh, it's the mirrors."
    Yes, you figured it out kid, now leave me alone.

    Current Combos commercial is one of the dumbest I've ever seen.
    It's slogan is "What your mom would feed you if your mom was a man".

    Huhh?? Is that suppose to inspire moms to go out buy Combos for their kids?

    Has anyone actually said "bod" in the past ten years?

    The people who did those commercials have said it in the past 10 years.

    I hate the ones for Jerrod's Jewelry (whatever that is). They have someone getting a gift and everyone going all EF Hutton on their private moment, "He went to Jerrod's... He went to Jerrod's... Why didn't you go to Jerrod's?"

    Since I've never heard of the chain before I assume it's new or too stupid to change its name. Everytime I hear the commercial the only thing I think is, "He went to Subway to buy jewelry from that guy who used to be fat?"
