Years ago, Joe Namath got nabbed for a panyhose commercial by a truth in advertising clause because he didn't wear them.

Another thing that irritates me, especially late at night is commercials are louder than the shows. It's illegal, or was, but they still do it.

yea i notice that! about the commercials, I notice most of the loud ones are local commercials on my cable TV. You know like a commercial for the local car dealership or whatever. they always seem louder than like a national ad say for like McDonald's or something.

I as well don't tolerate the SUPER LOUD commercials. CLICK. Change channel. And since I have ADD to a degree, I forget what I was watching and start on something else.

What was I saying?

Ah yes. Annoying commercials. Right?

I think the two most annoying commercials on tv have to be the Vonage one (woo hoo, woo hoo hoo, woo hoo, woo hoo hoo) and the McDonalds Bada ba ba ba, I'm Lovin It!

As to the latter McDonald's commercial, I've found my revenge for its annoyingness. Every once in a while when I'm in a rotten mood (okay, pretty often, who am I kidding), I'll go into a Mickey Sleeze and order up whatever (ALWAYS a grill order, as I don't want some nasty burger with crap on it that I DON'T EAT) and as I wait, I stand at the counter going. "BA DA BA BA BA! BA DA BA BA BA! BA DA BA BA BA! BA DA BA BA BA!" Do this like twenty times. You'll get your order super quick! Great stress relief as well.
