    Re: You know what really grinds my gears?

    doesn't matter if you know a commercial backward forward & inside out. I love all the Progressive & Geico insurance commercials, but I've never once bought their product. They can catch all the eyeballs in the world but what they MUST have is your wallet

      Still can't believe they made a sitcom off those cavemen ads...

        Always thought they should have a commercial with the two annoying *** Sonic dudes sitting in the car and then a car bomb or something goes off and then the Progressive lady comes around to survey the damage and she gets burned alive too.

        Then they can both start new ad campaigns.

        Sadistic, I know. But that's how annoying both are.

            I watched the pilot again recently, and somehow was still bewildered by its awfulness.

                I don't remember that. I just remember there was a female buddy Sonic commercial.

                My favorite Sonic commercial of theirs, which involves a woman offscreen, is this one.

                          All of my local shops got rid of that a few years ago. I'm incredibly disappointed.

                              Subways prices are ridiculous. Paying the price of a medium pizza for a sub basically lol.

                              Their bread is the only thing I like about subway. If a bakery could make bread that good, I'd just get that and make subs myself instead of with the regular grocery store bread I use now.

                                Yeah i always feel like a bit of a mark walking out of subway after spending $10-$11 (plus tip) on a pretty small sandwich, realizing I just bought a bland sandwich with bland ingredients.
