what commercials really work...

[sonickteam2]

those old Got Milk commercials were good.
   
   does anyone remember the one where the guy gets hit by a bus and then wakes up in a room with a plate of cookies and a refrigerator full of empty milk cartons?  
 
   i think it was taken off the air relatively quickly but man , that shit was funny.
 
   also, those Aspercreme commercials...funniest slogan ever
 
  "You bet your sweet Aspercreme!"
 
   that one was changed too.     damn censorship.

i like the toby keith "i'm a ford truck man, that's what i am" commercials b/c his beard and permed yellow mullet don't match.
 
 i grew up in a town where people are "ford truck men" or they drive a chevy (pronounced chivvy).  some people like to make statements like: "i'd rather push my ford than drive a chevy."  they're silly.  
 
 i like it when "factory to dealer incentives" are mentioned in car commercials.  what the fuck are those anyway?

The really old one for American Tourister or some  other suitcase company that had a gorilla throwing suitcases around in the baggage area. After my last plane trip, I'm pretty sure that's really what happens.

I like the one where Mean Joe Greene gives the kid a Coke and proves that not all big Negroes are bad after all.

I was in a commercial once but it didn't move too much product, i dont think.  I never actually saw it on TV, but a few friends did at like 3 in the morning.

My personal favorite commercial was the Nationwide Insurance one, where MC Hammer was all dancing with his backup dancers one minute then getting the mansion repo'ed the next.  Cracked me up!

I love the LG Chocolate ads. I think it could be the music always catches my attention.
 
 I remember a car ad that used 'little fluffy clouds' from the orbital. so i guess ads work in some way if i still remember the songs and associate it with a product.

I really like the ESPN Monday Night Football commercials--the one that cuts to various "average joes" humming the infamous MNF theme song. Which reminds me, I need to go watch some football now.
