ooh ooh I just remembered my current most hated.

The GD state farm commercials with aaron rodgers and his agent. The very first one of the series they ever had I remember chuckling and liking it a bit, I can't even remember now what it was. Now they're on like the 6th or 7th version of the commercial and it is infuriating. It's like back in the day with geico when they realized the cavemen or the pig were kinda liked so they ran them into the motherfricking ground.

The agent is such an over the top caricature of a person. In the first commercial he was a hardass jerry mcguire type of guy. Now he's a sniveling, groveling, sad pathetic loser that only wants to be aaron rodger's friend. It's disgusting.

I hate all car commercials around Christmas. They act like people casually give each other 40K+ brand new cars for Christmas presents all the time.

I too hate that GMC commercial. I told my wife the other day that they did a horrible job with casting, because there's no way it's believable that guy has a house like that.

speaking of cars, I haaaaaaaaate the commerical where the guy drives to answer his friend's text. It's fricking stupid as hell! Of all the ways to advertise a vehicle, they couldn't think of ANY other basis for hte guy to drive around? Also:

-the guy gets the text in broad daylight, and when he shows up to the friends house its' pitch black. How fricking far away does he live?
-when the guy opens the door and black guy says "not much", guy instantly says "are you answering my texts in person?" That wouldn't happen. IRL he'd go "huh?"
-It was pretty presumptuous to just show up to teh guy's house. What if he was busy? What if he wasn't home?

What's hilarious about the Peloton commercial is that everyone seems to absolutely hate it and the reasons vary significantly, that's how awful it is.

I saw it like ONCE and immediately hated it with a passion.

What rubbed me wrong was I abhor the whole selfie culture thing, where people are so self absorbed they think every trivial thing they do needs to be documented.

It's also like they had an idea to go inspiring to show a fat woman transforming herself, but then didn't have the guts to actually use a fat lady because that's totally not who buys that shite and not the image they want.

Every time I see him I always think he's just a bad perm away from being Herb Tarlek.

The Cox ad where the two kids are having to do small random chores but are battling over who gets to use random smart features to accomplish them

"ohhhh no I have to go let the dog in that's all of ten feet away!"

I'll throw in the active shooter training commercial where the middle school girl shows up to teach a business about active shooter training.

Most of what she says doesn't even make any damn sense.

I typically see the "espn" bumper in that case, with that cheesy music.
