Welcome to My Hell!

Between football games and our addiction to reality TV, Rachel and I watch a good amount of TV. Unfortunately, we are also subjected to a lot of commercials. As someone who was in the radio business for a number of years, I know advertising is what pays the bills and salaries at these stations. As much as we all would love to get rid of them, they do serve a purpose in our society.

With that said, I need to introduce you to two of the most mind numbing, annoying commercials that I am putting up with these days. Not only are they annoying, but I swear they are on 4 times an hour.

This one is the worst. It's for "Scratch and Dent World".


I don't know who this hideous woman is, but she is quite possibly the worst advertising spokesperson EVER!!! This woman who introduces herself as "Lee" (Some of you know my history with women named Lee and my nightmare continues), and there are so many things wrong with her.

First off, couldn't she wear something better than this hideous orange dress. It's Tennessee Vols orange and I didn't think they sold things that color unless you live in Knoxville or are planning on going hunting. From now on, no one is allowed to wear that color orange unless it is Lane Kiffin's wife. Hubba Hubba.

The other thing that gets on my nerves is that she is wearing a freaken knee brace during this commercial. Couldn't her knee handle the hour it took to film without wearing the ugly brace? I realize most people don't walk on washer and dryers everyday, but unless she wiped out during a previous take, there is no reason for her to wear that thing. Especially when she is wearing a hideous sun dress that barely covers her ass.

Lastly, couldn't they have found a slightly more attractive person than Miss Lee? I'm sure outside of the yelling and bad clothes, she is a nice person. But it's also safe to say she's not winning a beauty contest anytime soon. She really needs to be nominated for "What Not To Wear" so Carmindy can teach her some make-up tips and Nick can chop off her mane of hair.

Most of you outside of the Orlando area probably haven't been subjected to Lee, but I know you've seen this.


Yes....the dreaded "Saved By Zero" commercial. Not only can Toyota build fuel efficient vehicles, but they also developed the most annoying jingle since the Cougar was singing about his country a couple years ago. Even though 0% financing does sound like a nice incentive, if I'm in the market for a car, I will officially not be visiting a Toyota dealership because of this ad. Every time I hear the "Saved By ZEEROOO!!" shriek, it's an automatic channel change. So I guess the networks should start being more careful about the ads they run, because there is no doubt in my mind that I am not the only person who turns the channel when this commercial runs.
