LMAO, speaking of annoying ads, here’s another critical review......

Topic: Graig and Susan Zapper annoy the poop out of me
Posted: 10 Mar 2010 at 4:32am

I don’t know what these two yo-yo’s are trying to sell me. This is shocking because I’ve heard their radio ads many many many times. It’s some kind of sick desire to have my nerves grated. They do one of the most annoying cute-husband-and-wife-in-business-together back-and-forth routines that could ever exist. And at the end, the wife repeats the phone number so many times that by the time the commercial finishes I want to drive my car down a crowded sidewalk and into a brick wall. All I know is that the phone number has a lot of 5’s in it because that seems like all she says. I hear it when I sleep - 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5!!!!
KILL ME NOOOOWWWWW!!!!!

Who are the ad wizards who came up with this one?

LOL! Exactly - the ad has to be one of the most , if not THE most annoying ad in existence! I hear it no matter what radio station I listen to - they are everywhere! I have also seen people complaining on other forums from other states saying things like the wife’s voice can shatter glass, drive people to pull their hair out, etc. etc. !

Springing (kinda) to my feet and a (short) dash across the room to turn the radio off is the only exercise I get.

There is no one worst ad at present. USDA's insect voices talking about going to California to eat all the crops would be it if there had to be one -- all commercial ads using paper cups and string to simulate the sound of phone calls, especially the one for some kind of supplement for dogs -- a record 1.7 seconds to get it shut off after the first time.

For you entrepreneurs out there -- how about a target range device (paper target) that looks like a radio and has some of that sound technology they use in greeting cards? With the technology going the way it is you'll be able to soon do TVs too.
