What I find creepy is a woman's bladder that walks around and carries binoculars.

(I guess I watch too much tv). I don't know if I like the chrome ornament singing or if it's creepy but I have to look at it every time it comes on.

by the way, the video by the Pet Shop Boys does, in fact, feature a car.

the Emu with a pet human? I will stick with Travelers that doesn't run commercials. And don't get me started on that creepy Flo person and her cult.

I think this one is the least irritating, frankly.

I am so tired of "FLO" ads or the "soul of the house" nagging us about decore, or that gawd-awful MOTAUR ad with the motorcycle centaur.

Bring back the damned gecko (Geico) and Progressive, hire another ad firm.

I guess they play it over and over during the shows my wife watches on MSNBC because I don't see much TV otherwise, but I hear it now and want to strangle someone. She knows it too now she sings along with it and thinks its hilarious just to drive me further over the edge. Thats what marriage is for I suppose...

has an ad where the house is leaving a message for the new owners. Every time I hear it, I'm thinking just great. They call, text, have pop-ups, tv commercials and unsolicited snail mail. Now, the new house is butting in?
