    [​IMG] There's one with the commercials you hate, so what ones do you like/love?

    Quiznos subs with baby Bob are a laugh riot! The first one I really lmao was with Bob's last line, "If only I had molars...rrrow!" The lastest one is pushing the Cabo chicken sub and Bob is in a wetsuit with a sufer. The surfer says, "Too bad you can't eat one of these, Big Kahuna." To which Bob snaps back sarcastically with, "'Too bad you can't eat one of those, Big Kahuna.' Pppt!" :p

    Vonnage has gone back to the stupid human tricks for their adverts, which puts them back in my funny books. :thumb:

    Ahhh; both of the above get my nod. There also was:
    - Wendy's; "Where's the Beef?" and all of Dave's (rest in peace, man).
    - 'motormouth' for FedEx back in the 80's.
    - Geico; the gecko, and the '...but I have good news' ads
    - goin' Old School, there's Coca-Cola's "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing" (yes, sappy, but it was touching to a kid. :) )
    - there's this and similar ones that British Airways did (and a Coke ad recently)
    - a Subaru ad from the early '90s: "A car is a car. It won't make you handsome, or prettier, or younger. And if it improves your standing with the neighbors, then you live among snobs with distorted values." :D

    EDIT: Oh, and the 'barbarian debt collectors' ads from CapitalOne. ("What's in YER wallet?!?")
    E.G.
    They recently started airing a 'where are they now' ad; since Cap1 put the other CC companies outta business ;) the barbarians have to get other work... :D
