...who can't wait for the holidays to be over so we don't have to see the awful "I'm so Bohemian" commercials for Hyundai and/or the awful "Holiday" commercials for Honda?
In case you live in a cave...underwater...on another planet, this is what I'm talking about:

I kinda like the commercial (I forget who it's for) that mashes up "Jingle Bells" with "Our House" by Madness. That one was clever.
But yeah, these oh-so-hipster car commercials suck. I'm with ya on that.

I don't know. I was getting used to hearing that first commercial. It started to grow on me. I'm sure I'll be tired of seeing/hearing it though.
My favorite one right now, not related to christmas is this one the geico woodchucks. It's not that funny but when they throw the third piece of wood into the water and the woodchuck goes "oooh" it's funny.

There are not sufficient words in the English language to describe how much I loathe those 2 commercials.

BTW, I'm with ya on the Geico woodchuck commercial PRD.
It's my favorite now that they're phasing out the little pig one. I love that third toss right before they get busted...

Obviously you're not cool enough to even grasp what's going on in those commercials. There's some deep stuff there.

January 2nd is the greatest day of the year because all this holiday stuff is OVER for a while. I get so burnt on all of it that I become quite a grinch before it's all done with for another year. I try to keep up a good attitude for the kids but it's not easy sometimes.

I generally don't watch tv til late night, so most of the commercials are for phone sex lines. Whores in Santa hats are actually kinda nice.

I wanna punch that girl in her blank expression face. Her voice is annoying too. Have they been used for any other commercials? It sounds familiar.

Yeah, they were in a Toyota commercial last year. This year there's the one I posted and a Jingle Bells one.

Don't get me started on the stupid BCS, it is totally ridiculous that 6-6 teams get a bowl game. We need a playoff system so bad it's not even funny. The top 2 teams in each conference need to face off and then go through a quarterfinal, semifinal, and then one and only one national championship game.

i would probably agree but NBC played the commercial almost every single commercial break during the last Sunday Night Football game. Commercials lose their charm if they are over-played...
