It's bad enough you see spam banners while surfing the internet, but now spam ads? TV ads use to not be so bad, but now they are getting more like those flashing banners that say you could win a free Xbox 360 and the like. It annoys me and I wish they were gone.
But having ads gone will take away TV. They help the station stay alive to broadcast us our favorite shows. It is too bad that the ads can't be more useful and less stupid.

One word. TiVo. Once less people watch commercials the crap ones will filter out, and ones that you actually want to see will start appearing. Remember the one where they threw all those cars off of a trailer to test the maneuverability of their product?

I think I vaguely remember that. It was a silver car, right? Looked like they were on a major highway?
There are some commercials that I do like to watch. Mostly the ones with The King and the Capital One commercials.

Yeah, I think so. I want more car commercials like the one where they use every part of the car in one big domino effect thing.

Oh yeah, I liked that one. That was one awesome commercial. Must have been a pain in the ass to make, though.

True, but it was cool and caught the attention of the audience. If they're willing to spend that much effort on a commerical, the product must be good.
Edit: BTW Silvion, your Avatar isn't showing. It must be going around.

Wasn't your avatar of Rand with a buldging crotch?
On a commercial related note, I would love to dress up as the Burger King king for Halloween. I think it would be very fun to do.

The King rocks. You all are just jealous. I mean, look at him, all pastic-like and what not. Yes, that guy definitely rules. ^^

On Family Guy this past Sunday, Peter became a football player. I was so waiting for them to draw the King somewhere in there and have Peter high five him or something. It would have been very funny.

Heh. And definitely something that they would have done. It's a shame they didn't. Wouldn't been quite funny.
