I could list tons of TV ads, but the most annoying ads to me are online. The worst are those damn mortgage/loan ads that have the dancing silouettes in them. I absolutely hate those. Otherwise, those flashing/bouncing/moving "YOU'VE WON!!!!!!?!?!?!" ads suck too.

The freaking Netflix commercials. You know, when they get all the TV characters actually going to the houses? That bugs me sooooo much... no idea why.

Also[but this probably bugs everyone], the ads for movies that are coming out in like, 3 months, because they always make the movie look so amazing... & they play the ads so much that you're like, "I NEED TO SEE THIS MOVIE NOW!" Then you have to wait another 3 months for it to come out... & most of the time the movie that was sooooo good according to the commercial sucks!

Or...

To download this crappy ringtone, text "isuck" to 12345.
To download this more annoying crappy ringtone, text "uidiot" to 56789.
And so on for 32 songs...
