Alexander Keith's India Pale Ale (why is it the beer companies that always have the best commericals?)

Wendy's "Ranch Tooth"

That cat that holds his breath, cheeks puffing out because his litter box is so stinky

An old one - "A day in the life of Ronald McDonald"

The Mazda commercial where there's a bunch of guys dressed in black laying down and the leader says "Everybody up, look alive guys". They all stand up, arms up... turns out they're all arm hairs on a guy driving a Mazda.

The Serta Counting Sheep

And radio commercials:

The Ikea guy, particularly the commercial where he says that at the Ikea sale you can save hundreds, possibly thousands, of dollars. "Then with all that money you save, you could buy hundreds, possibly thousands, of 1-dollar breakfasts at the Ikea restaurant."

myautosales.ca - There's a guy in the shower singing "My auto sales.ca..." - turns out he's happy because he just sold his car and bought a new one on that site. As he's singing you hear a thump/crash, then the announcer says "Two rules in life - check out myautosales.ca for your next car, and don't dance in the shower!" (Guy in the shower says "Owwww")

City Cab - the phone number is 717-7777, a number that's easy to remember *anytime*. There's a guy who sounds drunk talking to his drunk friend, wondering how they can call a cab. He tells him to call City Cab - you just dial 717, then keep pressing 7 until someone answers. He tries it, saying the numbers out loud... "7 1 7, 7 7 7 7 7 7... 7?" A City Cab person answers while he's still dialing. "Dude, we're in!"

I like the comercial for a vacuum cleaner that shows the woman multitasking to what would seem absurd levels. My husband says it reminds him of me.

I am also very fond of the Holiday Inn Express commercial where the visitor stops the reactor from melting down.

The Capitol One commercials with David Spade where the angry customer bursts into the call center and chases the guy who then makes hurdles over cubicles while screaming like a girl. I've worked in call centers and always used to imagine some angry customer finding us and getting his revenge.

Oh, and the one with David Spade using a voodo doll to punish him when he didn't say "no" was hilarious.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

The mitsubish arm-dancing commercial and the car commercial where the people are trying and failing (ad everyone does when they try) to sing "One Week" by the Barenakes Ladies are both classic.

I HATED the tendercrisp bacon cheddar ranch burger king song. UGH! HATED it!

I used to love the Zoloft commercials. It made depression seem so CUTE!

When I was a child (about 3 or 4), there was a super maket in the Western New York area called Super Duper and they had a jingle called Love That Super Duper with a heart.

As luck would have it, I was in speech therapy and she was showing me shapes. I am sure most people can guess what I told her. :lol:
