Actually, I have two: commercials that drive you crazy.

1) the redbull on the moon commercial. so terribly nerdy, but it drives me crazy not because it perpetuates the moonlanding-was-shot-on-a-stage myth, but rather because wings don’t work on the moon, being airless and all.

2) the car commercial with the animated “spokesman”, where the whole commercial is “outtakes”. i don’t know exactly why, but it makes me want to hit something. apparently i’m not the only one.
and, if you really want to make your head hurt, go here. stumbled across this while trying to find a video of the above commercials.
