bad ads

Is anybody else bothered by the recent trend towards tv ads having creepy silent lifesize plastic mascots? Burger King started it, and Tractor Supply and Quaker Oats have followed suit. McDonald's even has one ad with a kid talking to a plastic clown. At least the Jack-in-the-Box spokesman only has a plastic head.

I used to like Burger King, and although I wasn't in the market for oats or tractors, I'm making sure to avoid all three companies now.

That being said, the doofuses (doofi?) in the Sonic Drive-In commercials are worse...

And the green-haired Kiwi-holics...

And the Nasonex bee...

What's your least favorite?
