TV and Radio Ads that HURT Business!

[Dial 9-1-1]

I always thought that advertising was supposed to be good for business. Some advertising is so embarrassing that I won't give these businesses my dollars purely for reasons of fear. My fear? That they'll put my money towards more bad ads.

Boston Pizza. Why? Because of that complete cnut who appeared in maybe two movies twenty years ago, and now he thinks he is funny because he doesn't wear pants and puts on a stupid fcuking hat. I'd like to shove a boiling hot stromboli up his arse side ways and punt. What's his name? Howie Mandel? What was he in--Howard the Duck or something? Christ riding a rack of ribs I hate him.

Monte Cristo(sp) Jewelers: Wally Pistano or Pisqualiii or whatever the fcuk his name is from those Team 1040 ads. Tell his daughter to learn soma Englisha firsta ya? Awful.

Home Depot: Alright, I can't say no to hanging out at HD, but there's an add where a girl who is "on a budget" decides that she'll lay hardwood floors and add stainless steel appliances to the apartment she moves into. Where do I find tenants like that? How come mine only start grow ops?

Another of my favourites:

CIBC Mortgage...

We have a young couple with a new baby on the way, to go along with a new home, and a new mortgage.

"Are we going to be all right?" asks the pregnant wife.

"Come here. I want to show you something," responds the thoughtful husband.

He then leads her to a room that he's painted. They've got a mortgage, and a new baby, and our hero decides that he'll do his part by painting a room.

Come to think of it, this could be a Bud Light commercial as well!

I thought this was funny as well but because he shows her the room and she is surprised to see it...did she not hear the hammering or see the paint being brought in or smell the fumes from the room? How did he manage to fix a whole room without her knowing??

odd...

Boston Pizza really must have had to hit the very bottom of the third rate celebrity bucket to come up with Howey Mandel. By far the biggest idiot on TV. I suspect he and Howard the Duck will be on The Surreal Life along side Horeshack and Gary Coleman because every reality TV show needs a midget.

Whacha talk'n about Howey?

The oddest part about Howie's commercials is that BP has been funding them for 3-odd years now...you'd think if they didn't help business, they'd pull the plug on his inane antics...

...Howie, stick to your blue colour standup...at least that's funny, if not crude and outrageous.

I thought it was effective...well, effective enough for TheRob to call me, sobbing over the phone after having seen this commercial, muttering something about cho-cho trains. I think TheRob has post-partam (SP?) syndrome.

 

[Yoda]

Come on now your guys.
Howie had that hit cartoon Bobbies World too.

Pesonally the most annoying ones are the Canadian Tire ones for the Eliminator batteries or pressure washers. How many stupid neighbours does that guy have?
Second to that are the radio ads for Goodyear Tires.

 

[the manager]

How about that stupid song for Alarmforce that I can;t get out of my head? And the Guy who in a deep and apearingly assertive voice shouts something to the nature of "ATTENTION! THIS IS ALARMFORCE CENTRAL COMMAND...IDENTIFY YOURSELF IMMEDIATELY" Pathetic and I would never want someone to have access to my whole house with their stupid voice...

could you imagine the Alarmforce guys at central comand, listening to people fighting and shagging all the time...via their two way radio technology

[Bronco]

By far the worst are the Canadian Tire commercials!!

 

[TheRob]

I bet you know the phone number though don't you Manager?

Can someone tell me what Blue Colour humor is? Is that like soft porn humor?

I can't stand the Canadian Tire ones. If that guy were my neighbour I would punch him in the mouth for one upping me every time I do something. Loser.

 

[Dude]

No you wouldn't. You'd borrow the new gadget and never return it.

Where're my gloves?

 

[Jinky]

Pathetic and I would never want someone to have access to my whole house with their stupid voice...

Whatever you do, don't invite dude over to your house then.

And who are you guys kidding about the Canadian Tire commercials? If than cnut sold a Mastercraft Wig and Beard Set for Hallowe'en, you'd all race out and buy one.

 

[simon]

those commercials are too funny to remove from my tv screen. personally, i think they are more funny that informative

 

[girth]

That's 1-800-267-2001 alaaaaaarm foooooooorce! I fcukin love it!
The thing that gets me laughing is info-mercials when you just know the items a piece of shat and the guy trying to sell it is getting paid very small amounts for horrible acting. Like the clapper for instance? Which TTP'er has one of these loser lights? Sid maybe has a house full???

At least the Halloween wig and beard set would have a use.
Why the fcuk do i need a solar panel to keep my Eliminator battery charged?

 

[Jinky]

That's a good question, since the Mastercraft Wig And Beard Set runs on one's own sense of smugness.

Buy now and Canadian Tire will throw in one heavily botoxed wife capable of cutting down small trees and starting a car when it's snowing.

I think the best Canadian Tire moment comes from their ad about the hockey skates that you don't have to tie up. A great idea even if it does have the same know it all twat telling us about it. The best part comes at the end where the kid who is tying up his own skates tells his dad that the Canadian Tire specials would be great. The dad looks at him and starts laughing as if to say "What the fukc are you on you little shite, do you know how much hockey equipment costs? Are you going to start chipping in you little fukc. Fukc sakes man, give your god damn head a shake!" Or something like that.

Also, saw a Lilydale chicken ad tonight with some dumbass french guy pretending to be a chef, going on about having 50 people to serve dinner to and then he takes out one package of chicken. Nice so everyone gets a fukcing toothpick and an appetizer. He also sounds like a total wanker.

 

[Dude]

The bearded man is making an impact with hockey moms everywhere. Hockey moms hate the dressing room. They especially hate tying skates. They can get the rest of the package together (except the jock...they always forget the jock).

One of the kid's mom came up to me during a practice and said, "You need to talk to Steve. I've told him he should get Ty those new hockey skates you don't need to tie up...they have a buckle and an adjustable knob! They're great!"

Um, no. Well, maybe if you want your kid to be shite kicked. May as well name him Lindsay, too.

 

[knvb]

ESQ and you. I can't stand those two "singing". It's a watch...no it's a time piece. Tiiimme on my hands... fcuk off losers.

This is pretty funny, a critique of Canadian Tire guy...
