RESTORE YOUR MANHOOD - buy a hummer?

[ChairmanAgnostic]

Poll question: RESTORE YOUR MANHOOD - buy a hummer?

only sissies with androgen deficiency syndrome resulting in limp micro penises would drive a hummer.

These ads have to be the most brain-dead series I have seen. A $45K piece of junk will turn your Tofu into ribs? RIGHT.

At the other extreme, I cannot help but laugh at the latest Apple ads. the differences between the two ad campaigns is almost painful.

Which ads rate the worst with you?

[C_U_L8R]

1. HeadOn - apply to forehead !!!

HeadOn - apply to forehead !!!
HeadOn - apply to forehead !!!

WTF !!!!

[notadmblnd]

4. and now they've been joined by Activon and there's another one I can't

remember right now. But they're really nauseating

[Bozita]

23. I hear "HeadOn - apply to floorhead"

[EstimatedProphet]

30. Yes!

I thought I might have been the only one to have seen these ads! THEY DON'T TELL YOU WHT THE PRODUCT IS FOR! All it says is "Apply directly to forehead" over and over as some sort of post-hypnotic suggestion, and it never says WHY!

[sakabatou]

39. It's for migraine relief... the medicine but not the ad

[Viva_La_Revolution]

40. definitely the worst!

the Hummer ads are a close second.

am I the only one who remembers that Hummer used to be slang for what Clinton got from Monica?

[RagAss]

45. haha...I bought it....and it works too !!!...but the ad is hideous....

[abluelady]

2. And Womenhood

I watch very little tv so I haven't seen Apple ads but I did see a Hummer ad that showed a woman getting "pushed" around on the playgroud so she went out and bought a hummer. Frankly, if she could afford to waste money like that she should put a playground in her own backyard! Maybe the swing set people should start a new advertising campaign!

[mainer]

9. Ad's hidden context: "Only losers buy Hummers"

That's what I got out of the ad! "Those of you who get pushed around in life should buy Hummers."

[abluelady]

11. Wouldn't It Be Nice

If you could stop being a LOSER just by buying a Hummer????

[Warpy]

12. Here in the west, they show those ridiculous gas hogs

trying to get over rocks, tilted camera angle. It looks like the car is ready to break in half like the Titanic.

I've only seen 2 of them on the road here, both being driven by trophy wife types who didn't look like they were enjoying the experience, "I'm taking your Lexus to work, honey, it's easier to park. You take the H2. Have fun!"

[TahitiNut]

21. Yep. "Get Your Girl On!!" Pathetic. Really pathetic.

:puke: It can only appeal to sociopaths, imho.

[pooja]

3. I hate this commercial... Be a Man, spend your children's

college fund to drive around the city in a gas guzzler...

[RB TexLa]

25. That would make the assumption that everyone choses to raise children

[Maru Kitteh]

43. Because most people do, but feel free to substitute any other worthwhile

endeavor set aside by the selfish need to externalize one's deficiencies by purchasing a gas-guzzling steel ego crutch.

Earth Defense Fund
Population Control
Your favorite candidate

Whatever. No need to get all "poor me, I have been offended" about it.

[RB TexLa]

47. Not really offended, that assumption is made all the time

[ck4829]

5. "EVERYBODY LOVES ZANTREX 3"

Every time I turn on the TV, it's like opening the spam section of my email inbox.

Which is why I don't watch TV very much anymore, aside from the Daily Show, the Colbert Report, and Countdown.

[blogslut]

6. Here's my Mad comeback

to the stupid statement: "I want to own a Hummer"

Snappy Comeback: "Why would you want to drive a car named after a blow-job? You can get a real one for much less money."

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

7. Check out the accessories.

[Ilsa]

8. This ad really pissed me off.

Making fun of the guy who is trying to treat his bosy right by having him trash the planet is not this woman's idea of "manhood". Screw H2s and H3s and the company that makes them.

[lectrobyte]

14. Yes, I am so looking forward to telling one of my freeper coworkers

he's driving a french Hummer after Renault bails GM out.

[Ilsa]

26. Be sure to also tell him that by driving that thing, he is announcing

to the word that he has a tiny penis.

[oasis]

10. Are the Hummer ads the natural extension of the Enzyte ads?

:shrug:

[moondust]

13. Big Huckin' Chicken

I don't know if this is the most juvenile thing I have ever seen on TV or a derisive poke at Congress and the FCC for raising "indecency" fines to levels that defy all reason. ??

[PA Democrat]

15. Wouldn't Viagra be cheaper? n/t

[tulsakatz]

16. the Hummer commercials are just plain stupid!!

There is one commercial where a woman is at a playground with her son and he starts to go on a slide or something and another woman says her kid is next. So rather than asserting herself over this minor thing, she goes out and buys a Hummer and suddenly everything is great!!

How stupid is that? As if buying anything could change the fact that you're a wimp!!

[murray hill farm]

20. I think the Hummer ads...

were designed to appeal directly to the mentality of those who buy them....which gives one a clue as to the mentality of those who buy Hummers.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

22. well put.

turds of a feather flock together.

[bobbolink]

28. Then think of that mentality behind the wheel... in heavy traffic....

It's a wonder there aren't millions and millions killed on the highways every year.

[Cheney Killed Bambi]

17. Buy a hummer?

Why do that, when, if you really apply yourself in a disciplined manner, you can get one for free </snark>

[liberalitch]

18. The Ka-Boom guy almost made me wet myself.....

I was takin' a nap on the couch.... that commercial came on and I jumped up.... man he's loud!

[ChairmanAgnostic]

19. I hate that about some ads. 25% louder than the movie or news

I had been watching.

[anarch]

24. no thanks, I've never paid for a prostitute in my life

and I don't intend to start now. Now I enjoy getting a hummer just as much as the next guy, but jeez....

[Mika]

27. Have you noticed that at the end of all Hummer ads that they..

.. zoom the picture far far out to show the world they are helping destroy.

Buy 'Murican - destroy global.

[TahitiNut]

29. When I see ads like that, I know the kind of folks ...

... the program I'm watching is targeting. It's almost never an accident that such ads are run during specific program content. That's when I know it's time to rethink my choices.

:shrug:

[peacebaby3]

31. The ad with the creature that lives under your toenail is the one that

makes me switch the TV! I can't even watch the ad without my skin crawling. :puke:

[me b zola]

32. I hate the hummer ads, but...

The ads that I hate the most are the ones for financial groups, credit card co, and mindless consumerism, that use music from the 60's/70's. Some of the songs that have been bastardized were really important to the era. I understand how marketing works, but sometimes I can't help but think that there is a more insidious motive behind those ads.

[holboz]

35. AAAAAMEN!

I have horrible visions, flashing forward 40 years from now when we'll start hearing Pearl Jam or Red Hot Chili Peppers as a backdrop to annuity investment ads.

I can only imagine what sort of film footage they'll show.

Then again, considering how things are going now we may not have to worry about such things.

Thanks, Bush, for fecking up the world!

[Endangered Specie]

33. anyone else here have the misfortune of seeing a "Toyota of Durham" ad?

or that shithead in the "Crossroads Ford-the undisputed price leader" who always airs those obscene religious ads during Christmas and Easter?


You do not want to know what thoughts cross my mind.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

34. never did. But have you ever seen a trunk monkey ad?

those are worth a view, a review and a re-re-view. google trunk monkey and enjoy.

[Ekirh]

37. Trunk Monkey . .

For when getting your car back is just not enough . . . :thumbsup:

[me b zola]

41. LOL, I love trunk monkey ads

:rofl:

[Beelzebud]

36. BIG TRUCK small penis

[AlCzervik]

38. oh jeezus i saw the one today that featured a woman at the playground

with her kid, they are about to go down the slide when some biatch cuts in front of them and the weak willed pre hummer woman does nothing except look a little sad until she sees a billboard with the Hummer on it and then she dashes off in her decidedly frumpy mini van of the weak willed and tragically un hip and drives on over to the dealer, signs the paper work and zips off the lot in her brand new i don't take any shit from biatches on the playground hummer---end commercial.

I could not believe this ad, basically it implies that mini vans suck and you can't defend yourself verbally unless you're driving a Hummer. Great lessons for the kiddies ay?

[Catchawave]

42. Other: All of the above!

[Lorien]

44. I saw a great one tonight. It was for an online travel service

photo of Denali national park with flash animated photos of wildlife bopping around. Text appears that says "EXPLORE ALASKA" then a huge oil drill falls onto the scene, drills, oil spews everywhere and covers everything-text pops up "BEFORE THE BIG OIL COMPANIES DO" then there's the web address of the travel agent (kayak.com?) and an oil covered killer whale pops up beside it and squirts oil out of it's blow hole. I was amazed the MSM allowed it on air!

On edit; here it is: http://corp.kayak.com/tv/tripideas/alaska.html

46. "The King" is a creep

Sorry, if "The King" from the BK commericals woke up next to my bed i'd probably crap my pants and then stab the guy.

[RebelOne]

48. I love those ads with the smiling Bob.

They are hilariously funny.
