Almost all of the insurance commercials. They tried to be over the top funny and most of them are just ridiculous. There is one for a carpet cleaning service where a boy is sitting on a sofa and jumps up singing “I won, I won, I won” and as he’s swinging his arms he racks himself and the boy next to him spits out his strawberry milkshake on the carpet. The first time or two it was funny but not now.

I haven't seen that one, but the one I hate is a commercial for a senior citizen's facility. The little girl in the commercial comes in and says to her mother, "Mom...I miss Grandma." Her mother replies, "I know, honey...but she's in a better place."

Switch to an elderly lady playing some sort of card game where everybody is cheering and laughing and having a GOOD time!

I was brought up to believe in "a better place" meant death. This commercial suggests your family is better off if you put your mother or father away in one of these places. I think it's in very bad taste.

@MaryJanine That is nasty.

I'm glad SOMEBODY thinks so. Some of these people who make commercials seem to be mentally bankrupt when they script something. Plain stupidity!
