I generally ignore/dislike most ads, but there are a few I don't get tired of. Current ones I like are the wordings on backs Snickers wrappers and the Old Spice ads directed by Tim & Eric. Any others come to mind? |

I haven't seen their show, but it looks funny. That would explain why the old spice commercials are so hilarious. I'm on a horse

EXAR pedals rep for North & Central America | | Join Date: Oct 2005 Location: PDX, OR | | | I have been searching for a clip of this, with no luck--but one of my fave commercials ever was an old one for Pepto Bismol in the UK.
There are two fishermen in a very small boat, lost far out at sea, with no sail or motor. Each is sitting at opposite ends of the dinghy, just looking at each other. The sun sets, the sun rises, they're still sitting there bobbing in the ocean. Again the sun sets, the sun rises, and they're still sitting there. The sun sets, then rises again, and now only one of them is there in the boat.
Calm, deep announcer voice: "Pepto Bismol--for when you've eaten something you shouldn't have." |

I really like the 3rd one: "...potato salad, egg salad, macaroni salad...otherwise, NO SALAD."
My all-time fave starts at 8:30 into the set....
