How does a cylinder have a head? ;)

Haha, those commercials were SO odd. But they never made me mad. But the zoom zoom zoom zoom crap has GOT to stop.

But, I just remembered what is the WORST campaign of all time: the goddamn Verizon "can you hear me now?" crap. !!!!!

The torture I would apply to the people who "gave" us that ad campaign would give new meaning to the word "ouch." I HATE THOSE ADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I dunno, I like how the southern chick in those Durango husband/wife ads pronounces 'dur-AHN-gow'...she sounds like one of those typical big SUV driving, Myers Park soccer moms I see around here.

Here is what I don't get, that Tundra commercial.. why are they putting an Alligator in the back of that truck? I just do not get that.

I like them, and the Ford ones that mock them!

Then again, I also find the Citi fraud protection ads humorous.

They're Toyota? I have no clue. I just see it this way. Toyota doesn't sell many more cars then Honda, at least model for model. Yet Toyota advertises 50x as much, at least around here. That always makes me wonder.

Those are neat; they did a wonderful job on the lip-sync. Being hard of hearing, I tend to watch people's mouths when they talk; saves me sometimes from having to have people repeat themselves. Anyway, I made it a point to do this after I saw/heard the ads a few times, and it looks nearly flawless. Yes, I realize there's probably some trickery going on to match it that well, but it's still neat.

Yup, Toyota has had "HEMI'S" for a long time now... what's the fvcking big deal about a Dodge Hemi, except marketing a buzzword to the uninformed.

It just amazes me how worked up some of you guys can get over a friggin' commercial. (I guess that just shows that they are working.)
