I like the cell phone commercial with a father reviewing with his kids what they got for Christmas. The kids each got some fancy cell phone, and dear old dad says, "And what did I get?" Kids: "Aftershave " "No, Dad got hosed." In as much as Dad has a full beard, I'm inclined to agree with him

I know for a fact that teenagers can think up stuff like this for themselves, and could even back in the days of 8 tracks.

I LOVE this commercial. Oh man do I know a few of those guys.

Another commercial that I love, because it totally makes me cry is: The Pedigree dog food commercial with David Duchovny doing the voice over for the dogs in the pound. And he says "I know how to sit, I know how to fetch and how to roll over... What I don't know, is how I ended up here. But I know I am a good dog, and I just want to go home"

I love that one, too. I also love the commercial for Special K where the mom gives her old jeans to her daughter and throughout the commercial, she's eating Special K and at the end, she's lost enough weight and goes up to her daughter who's been wearing the jeans and says "I want those back"
Another ad I don't necessarily love but I think is so adorable is the one for Kissimee/Disney with the chubby little boy with the southern accent. "You can do whatever you want there." He's so adorable. I just want to pinch his little cheeks.

I love that "Dad got hosed" commercial too. I just thought of another one that I laugh at every time I see it. The chips O hoy commercial where they're all in the convertable singing "Don't you want me" and a big hand keeps swiping a cookie one by one until there's only one left and he's like "Don't you....want..me.......baby?" And he gets swiped. That cracks me up.
