Go back to all the commercials they've had over the years and think of the most annoying characters you've ever seen in those ads.
Here's my list:
1.The Furniture City kids ("Furniture City Pacakge Pricing!")
2. The "Zoom-Zoom" kid
3. The Wood Palace kids
4. The little cheerleader in the T-Mobile commercial (her voice goes right through me)
I'm sure there are more but that's all I can think of right now.
that's the whole point. I love her! great actingQuote:

If she talked any higher during the "Whatever"/"Whatever?!" part, only dogs would be able to hear her.Quote:

I hated the Quizno singing rat commercial. I have no idea what the character actually was but it looked like a rat. It lasted for a few months about a year ago and then disappeared (probably 'cause TV viewer hated it).
i absolutely forgot that. I cannot stand it. WRONG IN ALL LEVELSQuote:

I'm getting a little sick of the Tony Sinclaire commercials. "Ready to Tanguray?" Shut up already. I used to like them but now I just want to smack him. Oh and the guys in the cereal commercial. The one in the office where one guy hates another one and he keeps trying to fire him except the other guy can't hear him because he's too busy chomping on cereal.
I'm so sick of the Geico gecko. It was cute on the first couple of ads, but needed to retire a long time ago.
I hear ya on that one! About 3 months into that campaign I can remember saying to friend "Enough with the Zoom Zoom. I hope they don't run [I]that[I] for very long". That was about 5 years ago. Well, at least they got rid of the kid.Quote:

They were called spongemonkeys and, yeah, didn't make me want to run right out for a sandwich.Quote:

But I still like the Geico gecko.
I'm getting a little sick of the animated quilters for the Quilted Northern Commercials. My favorite commercial character is the puppy for cottonelle. I love dogs and he's just so cute, I want to take him home.
Oh, that was scary. Like Baby Bob better (who is actually a girl by the way)Quote:

We used to have this really annoying local commercial for a tire store and the owner was about one step away from being a total hick and had the most annoying voice and his catch phrase (which was shouted out)
TIRES AIN'T PRETTY. which actually sounded like Tures ain't pretty.
Johnson, you're fired!Quote:

And the Geico Cavemen one ceased to be funny after the first 50 times too. "I'll the roast duck with the Mango Salsa." "nothing for me, I don't have much of an appetite" Can you tell I've seen them a few times???
