Worst...ad...ever...

I saw this ad on Lookout Landing last night:

Imgad_medium


I'm speechless.

Who on earth would pay for a Jeff Dunham ringtone?

Particularly because you can't see him...doesn't it defeat the purpose to have the audio of a ventriloquist without the visual as well?

But also because...I mean, why would you want this?

I think this should be a threshold issue for voting.  Before you can vote, they ask you if you want to buy a Jeff Dunham ringtone.  If the answer is yes, then you don't get to vote.  Or you get to vote, but your vote counts negative...they subtract one, rather than adding one, to whomever you select.

I saw that too, Adam...

I also saw those heathens trash your very valid House question. Anyhow, they answer is, nothing. Nothing is wrong with Cuddy. She’s the most attractive lady on that show.

by ghostofErikThompson on Oct 30, 2008 2:33 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Pffft

13 is the most attractive chick on the show.

Dr. Cameron is the character who varies the most between smoking hot and plain jane in all of TV. Lately, she looks real mousy, but in previous seasons when she had red hair she could look great at times.

It's kind of weird to see

Cuddy and Cameron on the screen at the same time. Bad face, good body meets good face, bad body.

Is cameron the bad face or bad body in your opinion?

Bah, there was a link to a Jennifer Morrison

picture from Stuff in there, but I don’t see it now. She is rack challenged, but looked good other than that.

By the way, until we have real news

I would applaud post like Adam’s Lookout landing post instead of the “Nothing happened in Rangerland today” posts.

Like maybe a breakdown of girl on girl action between 13 and the anonymous patient of the week.

Seriously

Isn’t the Cameron/13 hookup inevitable?

Particularly given how messed up 13 is, and Cameron’s birds with broken wings syndrome?

by Adam J. Morris on Oct 30, 2008 5:56 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I certainly hope so.

I just want Cameron to go back to red hair, and actually go through makeup before it happens.

Even before last season, when she had red hair, she had episodes where it looked like she didn’t go through hair and makeup before the episode. Now that she has gone to dirty blonde, she looks like she rarely washes her hair or does makeup.

The hot Dr, Cameron is very hot. The plain Dr. Cameron is almost below average.

the worst ads lately

have been this just for men commercials where these people from the 60’s are getting older and getting gray hair. the worst part is the douches at the end are giving a peace sign saying, “never trust anyone over 90” really makes me wanna throw up, it’s hard to watch.

and the triple steak commercials from taco bell, i hate those too

and not to long ago there was a heineken commercial where people from all walks of life kept handing heineken’s to one another and laughing as they did it, never made any sense to me at all, anyways that was another terrible commercial.

and why is miller lite showing the same damn ads from last year, come up with some god damn creativity. beer ads in general are going down the crapper, not to mention the majority of budweisers ads are serious now

"I'm a triple steak kind of guy!"

Taco Bell’s advertising department has acquired a real knack for conceiving commercials that give you an awkward feeling you can’t quite explain.

by Joey Matschulat on Oct 30, 2008 3:05 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Which awkward feeling?

The one you get before you eat the Burrito, or the one after?

I’ve stopped eating at Taco Bell even though we have a combo Taco Bell/Long John Silver’s about three blocks away. Chances are they weren’t going to honor this promotion either.

by Joey Matschulat on Oct 30, 2008 3:34 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

no...

it’s just the way that smug asswipe comes off in that commercial like he’s real suave for thinking of something clever or something and the way he says, “im not a steak guy, im a triple steak guy”

the volcano taco commercial got a chuckle outta me the 1st time, this one just really bothered me

my dad would definitely buy a Jeff Dunham ringtone

if he knew what a ringtone was. He thinks his “jalapeno….on a steek” and “Achmed the Dead Terrorist” bits are pure gold. When I tried to broaden his horizons with Dave Chapelle, he just got the cocker spaniel look on his face (one eyebrow up, head cocked to one side as if to say “I hear noise, but I don’t understand what it means”).

All ventriloquists blow

Just a stupid, stupid “art” form.

One of the comedy channels on XM is having a “World Series of Comedy.” This week it was Jeff Dunham against Gaffigan.

And fucking Dunham won. Ugh.

Clearly it's illegitimate.

Because Gaffigan would win the whole damn thing if it were real.

THIS IS OUR COUNTRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Fucking johnny cougar and that fuckin chevy ad campaign that showed for 9 months straight during every commercial break of every god damn sporting event i watched from the nfl regular and post season to baseball playoffs and i believe it even dipped into march madness.

kinda like how the rangers last summer had that former american idol winner doing that ford commercial every commercial break, “i get what i want i go where i need” another terrible one

there is almost nothing worst in commercials than showing patriotism, just annoys the shit outta me

Probably not

Because I had no idea either, until I looked him up on wikipedia:

Jeff Dunham is an American ventriloquist and stand-up comedian. A graduate of Baylor University, he has performed on numerous comedy shows, including Comedy Central Presents in 2003. His usual puppets include a woozle named Peanut; a bitter old man named Walter; José Jalapeño, a talking jalapeño pepper on a stick; Achmed the Dead Terrorist; and an unusual superhero named Melvin. His act also includes, from time-to-time, his manager Sweet Daddy D, and a stereotypical redneck, Bubba J.
