and not to minimize your disgust and frustration with it, but I do have to say that there is one particular local TV station that has a weird penchant for playing the most obnoxious commercials EVER.

Over and over and over and over...

Often the same commercial upwards of 15 times in the space of a couple of hours of broadcasting.

Anyway, I had read that obnoxious commercials tend to make people remember them, and the product, which supposedly is good for business.

Well I don't know about other people, but I'm usually so disgusted I forget the company, or I'm so disgusted I vow never to buy anything from that company. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that way, too...
