The GEICO commercial with Peter Pan. This kid is so annoying that even a pacifist would want to kick the crap out of Peter Pan.
OT: Commercials we hate

Kyle Flood public service announcements.....
Any Progressive ad with Flo
All the Subaru radio ads featuring smug, yuppies sounding people talking about their Subaru

That Viagra commercial with the woman in the football jersey. She seems kind of creepy wandering around the house tossing a football around.
The Kars for Kids jingle makes me want to shove forks in my ears.
The annual reminder to put a Lexus in your driveway with a bow on it for your wife has been on for about a week now. Worst Xmas commercial ever.
It's nice just for the thought of a fine girl like that wanting to hang out at the game with you though.
anything with FLO from progressive...how the hell could anyone in marketing think that its good for your add to be hated????
I couldn't be more sick of the Fan Dual and Draft kings commercials.
what person would throw their money away playing this? Less than 1% of players win. Much better odds playing any casino game.

Kay (or any ) Jewelers.
For trying to make you feel guilty if you don't buy jewelry.

I have no idea why the man seems surprised when they pull into the parking lot. Does he not know where the stadium is and didn't pick up that they were going towards it?
Agree 100%. You can tell whoever wrote the script doesn't actually watch football at all and has no idea how football fans talk to each other about teams.
You beat me to it. I think people may choose not to donate because of it.
I dont neccessarily hate this one, but I bothers me. The Cuervo ad about being the driving force behind the Stones legendary 1972 tour has "Miss You" playing in the background, which wasn't even released until 1978. Couldn't find a Stones song from that era to fit?
do you guys on the east coast get that ad where you now buy a ring or pendant with 2 diamonds? one for your wife the lover, one for your wife your friend.
What horses**t.
Did you see the one where the two robbers have Snoop Dogg tied up and they realize there is a sale at Old Navy, and I forgot how it ends, but it is really bad.
All of the Liberty Mutual ads (and there are many). They really insult your intelligence. BTW, I've had liberty mutual for over 50 years.
The one with the new castrati guy talking about how his wife makes all the decisions while soft music plays in the background is the most nauseating ad on radio.
Pretty much any ad for a prescription drug.
And the TV commercial with a bunch of faux cutsie pie kids doing the singing is even worse.
One benefit of not living in Central Jersey is not seeing a Brad Benson ad ever again, though they are on the radio. He must've been loads of fun in the Giants locker room.
The dumb meathead hipster workout guy from the Vista Print commercials. "This is what I do because this is what I do which is not what other people do", or some sort of nonsense like that.
We get that is what you do, Dummy. You train people, not split atoms.

And don't forget, "Every kiss begins with Kay" will be rolling out soon, if not already.
"Ask your doctor if [insert drug name here] is right for you."
There was one drug commercial that said, "Tell your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems." Shouldn't my doctor be the one telling me if I have liver or kidney problems?
My top 3:
3. Prescription drug ads. Why are they even allowed to advertise them? Not everybody can theoretically drop everything and buy them if they had the money, and the side effects sound more like scare tactics than anything else.
2. Sirius XM talk radio ads that repeat phone numbers at least 3 times.
1. "I'm [name] and I approve this message." Especially during election season when there are 10 different candidates from 3 different states plus the presidential race running every other ad! I'd rather take a power drill to my eardrum instead.

I watched Old Navy ads for a few years without knowing what they were advertising. I had never see an Old Navy store. I thought maybe it was the brand of clothing. Finally, they had the good sense to show a shot of an Old Navy store in a commercial.
