Dumbest Line In A Commercial

[CamEdwards]

For Valtrex:

"Living with genital herpes can be a hassle." This from a rather pleasant looking woman.

Thank you for giving me the mental image of your sore encrusted vagina, ma'am. I surely do appreciate it. Excuse me while I go puke.

The end of late fees, and the start of more?

The start of more, what? Other fees from blockbuster, damn their shit is expensive enough as it is.

[FBPro]

Almost any line from a laxative or constipation commercial.

[cougarfreak]

If an erection lasts more than 36 hours consult a doctor. I think they mean the woman cause she's getting boned pretty hard.

Cam... You'll appreciate this. WHen I was a DJ at a music station I worked overnights. I learned why gou should NEVER go straight into a break after a dedication. I came out of a song and dedicated it to a man who had called and requested that for his woman... who he had just ased to marry him and she accepted. Then unknowingly went straight into a spot that began "Is male itch a problem?"

[CamEdwards]

LOL, that's awesome.

[DaddyTorgo]

genital herpes is great. always causes people i know to crack up. there was one girl i used to work with (a friend) who i'd follow around, throwing her lines from the valtrex commercial, ie "you know X, even with herpes it is possible to lead a normal life" and just watch her flip out every time.

in conclusion: thinking about genital herpes...WILDLY FUNNY. actually having genital herpes...must not be fun at all (and no i wouldn't know)

"Are you gellin'?"

[sovereignstar]

"Are you gellin'?"

Like a felon!

Like a felon!

Like Magellan

On radio of course, there was a Phisoderm spot running that said this girl "has problems. problems with..." then it procedes to list 5 differnt guys. It then says "But there's one thing she doesn't have problems with." then pauses. I take that pause to say "herpes."

The spot now that annoys the hell out of me is Florence Henderson for Polident. The whole spot sounds like it should really be for Fixodent, as her mouth is constantly smacking like her teeth were falling out... Ewww!

There's an advert for Landrover (I think) about how tough they are. It's a volcano erupting, throwing tons of rubble into the air. Rubble smashes to the ground, one piece of the rubble is a Landrover that starts up and drives away. Along the bottom of the screen it says "Dramatization - do not attempt".

[yabanci]

"fair and balanced"

I think the dumbest line in a commercial right now is in a DirecTV commercial where the guy says...

"They say that DirecTV doesn't work in bad weather. My picture has never been clearer."

Well what the hell does this have to do with it not working in bad weather??? Yes you're picture is clearer with digital channels...but it has nothing to do with what happens when it rains hard.

I can't believe they pay people to right some of these things.

If an erection lasts more than 36 hours consult a doctor. I think they mean the woman cause she's getting boned pretty hard. I've said it before, I'll say it again: if I have an erection that lasts for more than four hours, my doctor is the last person I'd consult. I'll send out a press release and alert the media long before I seek medical attention.

The other night I was watching television and was fortuntate enough to witness the medical-fecta -- a yeast infection, herpes and erectile dysfunction commercial all in a row.

I'm very close to writing a letter to the FCC saying that I have no problem with Janet Jackson's nipple and I have no problem with the f-word being used every five seconds on network television. But if I have to hear about someone's herpes or Mike Ditka's inability to maintain an erection, I'm going to start a 527 to take on the world.

There is a UNICEF radio spot running in DC that starts by describing the terrible damage and devestation of the Asian tsunami. Then, in a rather desperate attempt to turn that from upside-down the announcer says,

"Let's turn it into a tsunami of comapssion, a tsunami of hope."

Some things are just bad and can't ever be turned into good. Maybe a holocaust of hope? I don't think so.

[terpkristin]

There's the one that I hate for GEICO or whatever when the guy is getting married and says "You are so awesome."

If that's the guy I married, we'd be filing for divorce...right after I had my head checked for marrying him in the first place.

God I hate that ad.

"Dude, you're getting a Dell."

I hate the diamond commercial where the guy shouts "I LOVE THIS WOMAN!!!" and she is annoyed as hell. Then he pulls out the rock and she says softly "I love this man." Now that is a materialistic bitch I don't have any use for...

Yeah, that one always annoyed me too.

Around here (well, probably everywhere) there were a number of scare commercials from the cable industry that were basically attempting to play on women (all the actors in the commercial were women) and their possible ignorance of satellite. Spouting forth the age old myths about not being able to get local channels, not being able to watch different channels in different rooms, etc. A total load of crap.

(not a line...just a commercial that always bothered me)

You all know that Chicken Pox is the same virus as herpes, right?

Well, those that have had chicken pox are at risk later in life to have the virus (which does not go away, ever, but hides in the spinal cord) sneak out along trunk nerves from the spinal cord, producing extremely painful postule type sores. This condition is called Shingles, and I had it last spring. The treatment?

Remember the part about it being the same virus as Herpes? Yup, I got a prescription for Valtrex. Watching the face of the young girl who got the pills for me as she realized what she was getting was precious. Its the closest I have come since being married to asking someone out (just cause it would have been fun for me to watch her react).

[JonInMiddleGA]

"Marco? ... Po-No" ... "What's in your wallet?"

Note: The "what's in your wallet" campaign has been very good. It's just this particular spot that feels waaaaaay too long & has run waaaaaay too much.

[MikeVick7]

ha!
I can't believe I get paid to "write" some of my postings. :)

[WSUCougar]

Anything with "Coors Light" and "best-tasting" in the same sentence.

[cuervo72]

No no, Coors Light is the coldest tasting beer. So not best, just really really cold!

[VIKING FAN]

"Marco? ... Po-No" ... "What's in your wallet?"

It's getting pretty bad when that little twerp of an a..hole gets to be the smart guy who slaps others around!

[LoneStarGirl]

"Hey, who invited I'll pay you tomorrow guy?"

[Ragone]

"Hey, who invited I'll pay you tomorrow guy?"

more like

"Hey who the hell ordered domino's.. they suck ass"

[LoneStarGirl]

agreed.

[B & B]

How about the TGIF commercial where the chick orders three things in some pre-packaged course meal for less than fifteen bucks. (LOL) and then the guy sees the menu and orders the says "I'll have the same thing"

Yeah. Right. Not happening. Ever.
