Maybe its because they are showing this 100 times a night but this ad is now driving me round the bend ... I have to mute it :p

How is that annoying? Are you all women? Because I suspect that could explain it.

Because that was awesome.

Would you want to see it over and over again? Because I suspect that could explain it too. ;)

lmao John ... well yes I am a female .. but I love beer and brats and bbq's ... but I don't wanna hear some stupid meat chant over and over and over ... I would feel exactly the same if it were women. ;)

Oh man, I know there are lots of commercials where it's women as the main characters and I just want to throw something after the third iteration.

I was coming at it from another angle. An outdoor BBQ has, at least around here, has been a very male "thing" to identify with coupled with the sport/marching chant furthering the 'male' orientation of the commercial imo.

What I was getting at is that sports chant + outdoor BBQ isn't very typical for a woman to identify with, which could be at least part of the reason for the dislike. So comparing whether it was a woman or man singing the chant and saying you would dislike it just the same is not exactly like: _insert women oriented commercial/setting/target vs a commercial like the one posted.

But I really didn't mind it until they started playing it 100 times a day.

Frankly, I'd rather watch the little moon animal thingies.

I find there are ads that just drive me 'round the bend, and I dive for the mute button.

I don't know about you guys but i get a kick out of watching infomercials. This is my new favorite. I love the scene with the kid looking scared while holding a flaming marshmallow in the kitchen.

I don't know about that - I bet if you take a marshmallow/chocolate bar/graham cracker in the microwave on a paper towel you would get the same result.

You do ... I've done it on several occasions .. just seems that might melt the marshmellow a little better... but. you can do more than one at a time without it lol :D

I hate commercials. :mad: I hate medical commercials, "Tell your doctor to prescribe this or that medication" WTF, who am I to tell the doctor what brand of medicine I need. "Do you have cancer, stay tuned for ............" or " Have you recently had a heart attack? WTF, I certainly don't need a tv commercial to remind me of my plight! Or lawyer commercials. "Have you recently found yourself in a car accident with a truck or car employed by a large company with deep pocket?" " If so, call Browner, Browneye and Dingleberry......" Go screw your self, rat bastids! Or the salesmen who really is yelling at you on tv like that loud mouth selling everything under the sun that is $19.95, like that stupid wire you stick into the wall instead of a nail to hang a picture. FU scumbag! Or salesladies who have a high pitched voice with a slight valley girl- Californian accent speaking a hundred miles an hour! Shoot me please!:eek:
My remote control is my best friend. :)
