The first two lines in the song are just in so much opposition it just annoys the shit out of me.

"Hoveround takes me where I want to go,
Where will it send me?"

If it's taking you where you want to go, it's not fucking sending you anywhere and you should most certainly know where you are going.

What commercials bug you for rather trivial reasons?

I find the stuff they try to sell on daytime and late-night TV hilarious.

The milk and the plastic wrap are legit.

The SweetJack commercials might be the most annoying thing in tv/radio history, followed closely by FreeCreditScore.com

Hates a strong word. Not sure I hate anything, certainly not a commercial. I would not let it ruin my day.

You're a better man than I. I get petty about any kind of advertising I see. It bugs my wife.

This commercial makes me hope the "lad" has been sodomized with a soldering iron:

I freaking love these commercials. The best one is "Tape a Cheetah to her back." Although the ones with the old basketball players instead of kids were kind of lame.

I am not familiar with the OC poster who goes by the username "rant" to whom we get to make fun of due to an obvious overthetop persona.

A 30+ year old guy sitting in a circle or at a table with a bunch of grade school aged kids? Not only stupid, but creepy as well.

To each their own. I just think his deadpan delivery with kids' remarks is a good combination.

AT&T with the kids is probably the best ad campaign out there right now. If you hate those, you probably hate every commercial there is (which, quite honestly, is perfectly acceptable).
