TV Commercials

I personally despise TV commercials!!! They are such a waste of time and don't make me want to buy anything at all, sometimes they make me not want to buy the product, and the commercials that are halfway good they take off the air, where the hell did the Taco Bell dog go, he was cool! Or the guy in the DELL commercial,"Dude!You're gettin a DELL" I mean DELL sucks! But the commercial was cool!

This new Earthlink commercial with fairies, leprachauns, mermaids, and some giant guy, what the hell is that crap, how is all this fairy tale crap supposed to help your internet service, some so called genius thought that up, oh but I do have some good news! I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico! [Like we haven't heard that 10,000 times]

TV airtime out of 1hr you may almost have 40min of showtime 20min of commercials, with alternating 3 to 5 min commercial slots, if they have to have 20min of commercials in an hr, set them 10min at the top of the hour and 10min at the bottom of the hr, and at least give us a 20min segment to look at, at least we could plan our dashes to the fridge, or bathroom.

I hate commercials because I can be watching one of my favorite shows at night and 5min of commercials come on, they're boring as hell, you close your eyes during the commercials and wake up with the show you were watching over with!


Well as the way things usually go here someones going to respond to this post telling me how important commercials are, or get TIVO, or record your show, or some dipsh!t response like that. [Premeasured Response to that is KMA]

So heres your opportunity to cut loose!

Commercials Like Em?

Hate Em?

Lousiest ones you've seen?

Best ones you've seen?


Personally I just flat love to watch DVDs, but sometimes you're stuck with regular TV, and thats the times I'm talking about!

I do record the things that are really important to me and cut out the commercials and burn the shows to DVD, but maybe thats why I'm becoming so aware of how many commercials are on each hr time slot, its getting rediculous!

The Dell guy was arrested for drugs so he lost his job.

I don't hate commercials, I just hate the way they are presented to the viewing audience. They are too forceful and too split up. I know that's to get as many people exposed to them as possible so the networks can make money, but it's freaking annoying.

Now commercials in the movie theaters has me pretty much never going to the cinema again. That's over the line and I'm not paying them full price to spend 15 minutes of my day watching their commercials. If I can buy a discounted ticket for a viewing with a few commercials at the beginning, then I'll take it. But since that ain't gonna happen, it looks like I'm spending my cinema money on upgrading my own home theater.

Bastages.

Commercials? Those are the ad thingies right? I've pretty much given up on watching TV, because I just couldn't take them any more. I dont go to movies anymore for the same reason. Hey, even the popups are starting to get to me. If they ever do comercials at the bar, I'm going to shed this mortal coil.

Can I go with him? I have friends there.

Wow! Thats a bad deal! I thought he was asking for too high a raise or something, so they replaced him, but I really don't see any reason to can the guy over that, he wasn't selling drugs on TV.

SO was the TACO BELL dog doing drugs Too?

Lets just say that next to the irish bar in the hotel, the ESPN SportZone was where I spent most of my time. Honest. Good food, plenty beer, and a TV to look at from every angle. The truth, I swear!

Man, it's this weekend for the house & all, isn't it??? You must be going a mile a minute!!!



Dazzle them with Brilliance, or Baffle them with BS!

Actually no, it isn't mate. We had a small flood at the new house, the boiler blew a valve. My mom and step-father went up to measure up some stuff for us and found it just in time. We got back from vacation on the 2nd and my mom rang us to give us the bad news. About £7k damage, whole kitchen trashed, doors etc. So it put us back 2 weeks. We now move on the 28th. Signed contracts on Friday, and fortunately we hadn't actually committed to the 14th legally, so we were OK. Had it have happened after we'd have been signed, we'd have had to get out, no choice.

It's given us a little more time to sort stuff, but i've spent hours on the phone re-arranging sh<b></b>it for the 28th. Our current house looks like Beruit, boxes and stuff everywhere. Handy me working in IT, no shortage of boxes. Our house looks like one big advertisment for HP at the mo'!

So it's all systems go for the 28th, fingers crossed. Damn pleased I won't be doing it again for at least another 30 years!

At least it didn't happen while we were in. Would have been far worse with all the new carpets, couch etc. Plus it was covered under the builders insurance. Just inconvenient really.

What has been good is that we've used the move to have a real good clear out, and we're throwing out so much stuff and starting afresh. The removal guys will love us, because we've been boxing stuff up for months. My Mom's garage has at least a dozen boxes, my in-law's spare room is rammed, and my Dad has loads of stuff. So all the movers have to do is move loads of boxes and big furniture. Should be fairly straight forward. I hope, at any rate.

Let me know if you have any spare mattresses. I have uses for them.

Some burglar will break in, think it's christmas with all the TFT monitor and HP printer boxes, and then be proper pissed off when he realises it's full of kitchen stuff, books and random shite.
