What TV jingle drives you NUTS?
Edited on Tue Apr-05-05 05:00 PM by Kathy in Cambridge
If the Empire Carpet commercial comes on, I hit the mute button immediately. And it comes on at least once per commercial break on certain channels.

"800-588-2300 Empire"

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8. those damn ovaltine ads on the radio
they keep repeating the same irritating jingle in a bunch of"styles" that sound exactly the same-each singer is more annoying than the last.

12. That Empire Carpet ad drives me buggy too
but I still say it's not the jingles that drive me nuts--it's the personalities.

-Smilin' Bob. It's hard to imagine that a bigger erection makes a guy smile that much, but if it's all the same I'd like to take a frickin' baseball bat to his head.

-Matthew Lesko. Usually telling bill collectors to "go shove it" is illegal, but not for this nutjob. Guy needs some Valium or Ritalin, I don't know which.

-Dave's Soda and Pet City. This freak just creeps me out. Anybody who sells "purebred puppies" along with soda just ain't right. I shudder to think what kind of problems Dave's discount pooches have later on in life.

13. The local one for First Horizon Home Loans.
"We're setting the pace...First Horizon Home Loans!
You've found the place, ready set, go home!"


There's more. Be thankful you can't hear it.
