I, too, love the Geico caveman commercials, and the ones with Little Richard, Burt Bacharach, etc. "I was hit... in the reeeeaaarr.."
I hate all the commercials advertising pharmeceuticals, but especially the Valtrex ones.. I do not want to hear about people having genital herpes! STOP TALKING ABOUT YOUR PRIVATES, PEOPLE!!!

OH...I got another one...I heard it again last night (I was in the kitchen when the commercial came on, so I cannot recall what specifically they're trying to advertise...and all the other times I've seen it I must just 'tune it out' 'cause it's about the dumbest thing I've ever heard)...
OK..It goes...
"They're CRUMB-BELIEVABLE".....
(To the tune of that '90's song "Your Unbelievable")...
WHAT?!
It's for some processed, preservative-filled, fat-filled microwavable food product...Every time I hear that ad I just want to yell "WHO came up with this 'brilliant' piece of advertisting, and WHYYYY????

Some sort of cheese crumble. I think Kraft makes it. Stephen Colbert on the Colbert Nation tried making that a new word to use, crumbelievable.
I thought of another set of commercials I love. American Express had these great commercials with actors and such discussing their lives and in the end it was something like, "And that's why American Express is my card." Kate Winslet did one with references to the movies she was in, Ellen was in one, Wes Anderson did one, too. Those are the ones I saw, but I think there may be more. They were very cool, in any case.

God, the worst thing about that commercial is that the jingle gets stuck in your head and you find yourself humming or singing it!!!! I have a beautiful and touching operatic version of that song that I perform for my husband. I crack myself up. Thank God he finds me amusing, as well.

The newest Coke commercials are 'cute'. And also a Pizza commercial about the guys sitting around the table each with their own abnormally huge facial feature. My favorite in a long time would have to be this deodorant commercial w/ some middle aged man topless w/ a hairy chest, and he applies the deodorant, and hair grows stating 'manly'.
That shit was funny.
Usually, after I see a good commercial more than twice, it gets old, because I know what to expect.
Ads I loathe: Steak N Shake, McDonalds, Subway - mostly fast food ads.
I did think the one Arby's commercial about the fish sandwiches was so cheesy, but it was funny. 'Are those fishnets?' 'Yes, do you know what I'm thinking??' '2 Fish sandwiches $4 dollars Arby's Where's the keys here they are let's go'
How I remember that is beyond me.
