Get the Door
Ok, I was watching the Cowboys win last night on live TV and was
forced to watched the commercials. There is this really irritating
commercial for Capitol One where a doorbell rings that sounds just
like my doorbell. Now, having surround sound is cool, but when it
physically sounds like your doorbell is ringing that can be maddening.
Especially when you get up to get the door. Then there was another
commercial with a doorbell. I think it was Dominoes pizza. The slogan
was "Get the Door". I could have sworn someone had delivered a pizza
to me last night. I think the ad agencies are laughing their butt off
at us. Now whenever the doorbell rings I have to look at the TV and
make sure it isn't one of those irritating commercials. Then there's
the radio commercials where you hear police sirens and end up looking
around, or the ones where you hear tires squealing and you have to
look around. I think we need to censor such things. Keep swear words
in the movies and censor those doorbell sounds and car sounds. I'll
create an organization "Consumers Against Doorbell Sounds And Car
Sounds" or CADSACS for short. Who is with me?

sick because I coughed on her doorknob, rubbed her stapler in my
armpit, and put her keyboard on my butt. Yeah... She's a whacko."

I agree with you. For me, the worst commercials are the radio commercials where you hear a car horn blowing. I always tense up and think someone is honking at me. A close second are the radio commercials where you can hear someone drinking something....so annoying.
