Aren't You Sick of These Already?

Some commercials and print ads are beyond their prime and need to be discontinued.

The Number 1 Culprit: Master Card Priceless Ad.
We get it. A credit card can help you out in a time of need. That's why we all have them. Super. The Ad has gotten so boring that they have one that literally says "blank, $60 " "blank, $100" "blank, priceless" - they don't even need to fill in the blanks and we know it would be a boring commercial.

Fun and Now Played Out: Mazda Zoom Zoom.
This kid was really cute at first with his little "zoom zoom" whisper. It made me wish I had a younger brother. But now everyone is doing the zoom zoom and yea, it is still catchy - but in that annoying way. "Zoom Zoom" should do what the Energizer bunny did - hide away for a few years and make a come back when we forgot that you existed. Then we can say "oh remember how cute those zoom zoom ads used to be?"

Still Looks Gross: Got Milk? Ads.
Every single famous person has been seen with white shmutz on their upper lip. It is so played out. You know why? Because I REALLY don't believe that any of these people drink milk. I bet they are all lactose intolerant (like most American Adults) and use creamer in their coffee. And who drinks straight up milk anyway? I bet skinny Mischa Barton doesn't pour milk on Cocoa Pebbles in the morning.

Stop Torturing Me, PLEASE!: Ride it Like a Ford!
In Miami they have these Ride it Like a Ford commercials that are shot all over the beach and in Downtown Miami and try to make Miami look Hip and Latin and Funky and....well, Skanky. The girls are half naked in the commercial and the song is stupidly suggestive. Truth is that the only people still buying Ford Trucks and wasting all that money on gas need that type of mind numbing commercial to make them feel better about it.

Any ads that you can't stand anymore?
