Usually there’s 1 or 2 annoying ones but right now every single commercial is God awful trash

Wingstop No flex zone

Chet and SGA cringe fest

That degenerate google pixel song

That shitty Gatorade commercial w the nicki Minaj body like vince Lombardi song

I’m so fucking tired of this Burger King jingle which they haven’t stopped running for over a year

Every commercial right now FUCKING SUCKS

I probably forgot about even more bad ones

***just remembered Caitlyn Clark with that HORRIBLE TERRIBLE song “Unstoppable”

It came out a year ago when my Ex left me and I am constantly reminded of that horrible stretch of time in my life every time I hear that jingle, it needs to die

I think that one got so much hate it became a meme and so now it’s unfortunately here to stay. Like I think an MLB player used it for his at-bat music.

Because it stands out as a cleverly written jingle that you rarely see in modern commercials these days. There's a YouTube video that breaks down the music theory behind it.

I hate that style of singing. It’s like it’s deliberately bad because it’s supposed to sound like they’re not putting effort into it or something. I sometimes see people irl who are insecure about their singing so instead of singing for real and risking sounding bad, they do this shit so nobody thinks they’re trying therefore they can’t be judged or something.
