Wilfred Brimley Diabetes Ads

Who is this strange mustachioed man who has been mispronouncing "diabetes," (not dye-a-beetus) for as long as the Price Is Right Has been on? I'm not sure either, but I wish he would either learn to say it right or go away forever.

Cash 4 Gold

Are Americans really too lazy to even go to a pawnshop these days? The testimonials in these ads never get around to telling you exactly how much gold you have to sell to get more than a few dollars. Also, I'm pretty sure that the transparent packaging they want you to send your gold in is definitely not the most secure way to do business. It is probably dirt cheap, however!

"There\'s an app for that" iPhone ads

My least favorite ad of the 2009, thus far. Soo, you're in a strange city and need a cab, there's an app for that. Most people entering a strange city would most likely be able to find a cab if they took their smirking faces out of their screens long enough to look around. The smugness in the voice of the ad's narrator is unmistakable and extremely irritating. Maybe Apple will come out with an app for teaching iPhone users not to be such insufferable assholes next. Hopefully soon.

I don't know about anyone else, but the this one really gets me. McDonalds finishes this one strong with a Chris Brown/Ne-Yo doppleganger seductively crooning, "You gotta ten piece, girl don't be stingy!!" I wish there was an award for worst jingle of the year, or possibly all time, because this is definitely up there.

Metzger Wickersham

These ambulance chasers have truly outclassed their competition. Nothing says "We will win you money" like a Robert Vaughn's liver-spotted face.
