SuperGreen

annoys you the most?  I'm not sure if these are national ad/commercials, I'm in northern VA.  Feel free to respond with your own!

It's so hard to pick just one! But I had to go with Monsanto. I hate them with the heat of a thousand burning suns.

Me too.  I scream at the radio "STFU!  I hate you!" every time it comes on.

I picked the kleenex, but we don't have the Monsanto commercials here that I've heard. If we did, I would be cursing at them too.

Haven't heard the Monsanto commercial.  But I really hate those Kleenex towels.  The whole idea seems very antiquated, like a step backwards.  And kind of stupid, from a business perspective.  With so many people concerned about the environment, you'd think Kleenex would invest in something a little more sustainable, or at least not so ridiculously wasteful.

I haven't heard the Monsanto commercial either, but I had to go with Kleenex. I've been hearing 'reduce, reuse, recycle' since I was in Kindergarten, and I know it's been around longer than that, yet Kleenex thinks it's a good idea to introduce ANOTHER disposable product? I feel like banging my head against a wall!

I want more than one vote.  I hate 3 of these very much.  I haven't heard the BP ads, but I'd complain about that one too.  Instead, the gas stations around here have removed their BP branding and are nothings at the moment.  Weird right?

I'm only "whatever" about McDs ads.  Since they started bombarding me with marketing compaigns as a child, I figure I became adept at tuning them out years ago.  I don't even notice they exist anymore.

I haven't heard the Monsanto ones but I would hate them.  I can't stand that HFCS commercial.  It makes it seem like those of us that are concerned about it are stupid and then should feel ashamed about it.

This. I hate hate hate those commercials.

HFCS I want to create an ad that has the first person coming back with "Sure, it's fine in moderation... but you can't have it in moderation since it's in everything you eat. Including bread. So why would you want to put something that is full of HFCS into your body when you already have so much in there already?"

Blah... I'm getting steamed up just talking about this!

grrr, I completely agree with pp!  I havent heard the Monsanto ads, if I had I would be cursing them out as we speak.  Also havent seen the Mc D's commercials (or just dont remember because I am so used to them I tune them out).  I get that some people don't agree that HFCS is the worst thing in the world, but there is no reason for it to be in everything we eat!  How are we to teach our kids and the general population about moderation when everything has HFCS in it?!  It is bad enough that we are the land of over doing everything, but HFCS in my bread while you advertise that it is "made with whole grains"?

argh...I need a cold shower now! lol

I voted for -- against!! - Monsanto because in theory that one pisses me off the most, but I have to be honest: I haven't seen or heard any of these. I'm pretty out of touch with the media.
