What strange and pointless commercials have you seen? They can be infomericals if you want. I'll start:

Just a couple of days ago I saw one for a new brand of knives. It was something like: "Are you tired of cutting like this:?" Then it cuts to some woman literally jabbing the side of a tomato with a knife. Like people cut things by jabbing it. Die tomato, die! "Well with these new knives you can do this:" Cuts to fat middle-ages man karate chopping a pineapple, that he just threw in the air, with the new knife. Hii-yaa! "Order now and we'll include a free juicer!" Person sticks a fresh unaltered appel to the juicer, pulls it away. It turns into nothing more then the peel perfectly fit in the shape of the appel and full of fresh juice. Is that not the fakest thing ever? Then the screen split into nine screens each showing the fat karate chopping man.

Lol, I've seen several weird commercials. I'll have to think for a while, though, because I can't remember them.

And this goes in Other Entertainment! *moved*

Man... some of the weirdest ones are the Enzyte commercials... with Smilin Bob!

In this one they were talking about wood... except its not the wood from a tree... Enzyte is this thing like Viagra... so you can figure it out from there...


Uhhh Pete Franklin's Local Auto Sales... nuff said..

And that one commercial with that dude that wears all the question marks on him and has 3429085647 inch thick glasses that goes around msking people buy his product... I forgot what it was...

The enzyte commerical was perverted and sickening o_0

Okay, there's a pepto bismal commercial that is really funny. These old people are dancing around singing, "Naussea, heartburn, integestion, upset stomach, diarrhea!" It's nasty, but funny.

The Six Flags commercial is funny. The old man dancing to the techno music. My mom says he reminds her of me *~*

I don't know if this would be considered a strange commercial, but something funny once happened on a commercial a while ago for the movie Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron.

One of the reviews during the commercial said, "Twice as much action as Star Wars!"

Funny thing is, I never saw that commercial again hehe...

A beauty girl, in beaty clothes, with a beaty straight hair, puts the toes in a swimpool to feel the water temperature. Her hair become fizzy in a black power hair three times bigger than her head. Cuts to the shampoo and a woman saying "Every shampoo you use odd your hair? Now there is Ganier Nutris Hidralis! It controls the humity of your hair becoming it fresh, soft and beauty!" As long as she say this, a lot of teenaged people be laughing, diving in a swimpool and talking, but everyone have fresh soft and beauty hair.

This one, jokestr2004:

A big dog doesn't want to chew a...small bone
Any more than he wants to play a...trombone
In fact if he could use the...telephone
He'd call up and order this new...Jumbone!
It's a really really big really big big bone
And that's why we call it Jumbone.

Ohh, I know of one.

There's a commercial for a satellite dish company, and it has a really big guy on it, and he has a freaky voice. He just talks away about the company, and right before he tells you what number to call to order it, he starts swinging one of his arms around in circles and shouts, 'The dish network! The dish network! The dish network! The dish network! The dish network!' I mean, he kept repeating that about seven times, lol. I cracked up.

The funniest commercials I have ever seen have to be the ones for Citibank, LOL. They're the ones with the people talking in bizarre voices about how they stole the person's credit card...the "identity theft" concept. Like the one with the guy sitting on his lawn-mower tractor and he has a woman's voice with a southern accent saying things like: "I know it's wrong...but, I feel...like the prettiest girl...in the whole...development! *sniffles and sobs*" The one with the Asian woman dentist and the psychopathic male voice is by far the most hilarious one, lol. Oh jeez, those commercials are freakishly strange but HYSTERICAL!

Has anyone seen the Skippy Peanut Butter Bar with the CG Jamaican elephants? It disturbs me really bad...they're on a beach and singing the praises of the Skippy bar Reggae style, and they keep on dancing and doing freaky stuff, and in the end the elephant on stage jumps into a mosh pit of elephants below the stage

Has anyone seen the new Burger King commercial for their new grilled salads? It has this freaky european artist named Ugoff who does a bunch of freaky, slightly disturbing postmodern fashion things with the salad in the commercial...it's actually pretty hilarious...a lot of it is him in a white room, sitting in a hammock thing with a kangaroo near him talking about art and fashion ;;

I’ll agree on the identify theft ones! I love those too, XD

The only other commercial that comes to mind is the allergy medicence one where the woman has a dog and it runs off. That kind of dog is the same as our puppy, so…yeah. o.o;

Oh, and my grandmother loves the Geico commercial where he starts singing “Kung fu fighting”. o.o;;;

Oh, the medicine commercial with the dog...I've seen that one. The thing walks sideways I nicknamed it Igor =P

And about the huggies commercials, all of those are pretty disturbing...especially the boy band one with the babies in diapers...there's little naked baby girls in the audience, how disgusting is that? I have to turn the channel, especially when they show the naked babies...they're just so gross...

And how about those creepy Puffs commercials with creepy claymation kids with the noses that fall off their face and go from convex to concave and turn into horns? And all the while, there's this magical music and a creepy narrator in the background...those are also pretty messed up...

No commercial is weirder than that one for Quiznos Subs that featured what looked like mutilated mice in bowler hats singing way off key "Eat Quiznos Subs!" I remember they finally got the name down for those strange creatures: "Sponge Monkeys." Ironically, that commercial actually made me lose my appitite every time I saw it.

Some commercial for some medication. I don't remember the name. But it was one of those "Have you tried (insert medication here) yet?" type commercials. It started with a crossing guard then went to "Ask your doctor if whatever it was called is right for you". It didn't even say what it does, what it's for etc. Just crossing lady, ask your doctor.

Oh yeah you know what the second most annoying kind of commercial is?

DISINFECTION SPRAYSZZZZZZZZZ

They're always competing against eachother and it gets very very annoying indeed.

...if you're wondering what the 1st most annoying one is... Car commercials.

Have you seen the weedol advert,

there is an old woman looking down at some weeds in her garden, then she picks up some weedol, and points it at the weed like a gun. Then she says, "You are the weakest weed.......Goodbye" and then she sprays the weed.

How cheesy is that?

Ooh there are lots of freaky medication commercials come to think of it...

*Zoloft: The depressed lumpy things that float around and chase ladybugs
*Zelnorm: Basically ladies' belly buttons with writing around them explaining the greatness of Zelnorm
*Enzyte: Smilin' Bob. 'nuff said.
*Crestor: Patrick Stewart (Captain Picard) narrating a Dr. Seuss-esque poem about high cholesterol

Oh gosh no, that girl "dancing" at the CD store...that was actually kind of disgusting

And I know this has been mentioned before, but the pepto-bismol commercial with the people doing the dance in the office. That made me want to throw up.
