I hate breast cancer awareness PSAs they run all the time. My wife got breast cancer a few years ago. I can tell you the last thing you want to see when watching TV is a commercial that comes on to remind you that you have a serious disease and might die.
The worst was one with Lynn Redgrave, an older actress famous in her time. She went on about "I want to die from eating chocolate; or die from laughing, etc, etc, then ends with her saying "but I will not die from breast cancer".
So when my wife was watching TV and had a few moments to lose herself in a funny show, and forget about her chemo/radiation for a little while, that ****ing commercial comes on. Thanks a lot.
Of course, then a few months later Ms Redgrave actually did die from breast cancer, and it was on the news. So my wife then feels like if a millionaire actress who has access to all the best doctors and treatment in the world still dies after treatment, then what chance does she have.
**** those ****ing cancer commercials. They aren't helpful at all.

I hate how the NFL teams wear pink all October too. I watch sports as an escape, damn sure don't want to think about diseased titties.
Do you remember those Gateway Computers commercials featuring the cow? You know, the ones that aired for YEARS, the ones where the cow is voiced by a guy? Yeah...
I actually like that one quite a bit. Glad I've never seen the extended version before now, because those terrible little girl solos kill the whole thing for me.
Oh yeah the Zooey Deschanel commercial is terrible but everything she does is terrible because she's quirky and young internet nerds think she's really hot.
"Today...I'm gonna dance." DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE you quirky bitch
I hate the credit wipeout and honda pilot commercials referenced above, but there is still only one commercial where i have to change the channel or at least mute the sound, i give you ...

I hate commercials where they have like 10-15 different people each say a single word or short sentence.
I can't think of a specific one off hand, but they are really annoying.

OMG that reminds me of those baby commercials with Jimmy Fallon. I had blocked those out.
Any commercial where a kid makes facial gestures 5 years past anything they should be able to makes me want to kill things.
When i saw the first one I KNEW they were gonna make it a regular thing with Fallon and that damn baby. Capital One is the nutworst of taking a commercial that doesnt make that much sense to begin with, and having those people recur in future commercials that make even less sense. Like those ****ing Vikings. Geico is pretty damn good at that too.
If i even meet this guy (theryre not twins btw, its one person!!!) i might hurt him.
Theres a newer one where a bunch of old people are talking about phones plans and then the end of the commercial is the mccann twins dressed as pilots on the cockpit waiving. MOther ****ers
