Is the Expedia Zip Line Ad the Most Annoying Commercial of the Last Ten Years?

I don't know how many of you have seen this ad Expedia is running, but I imagine that anyone who owns a TV has seen it multiple times. I think it might be the most annoying advertisement in the history of television.

For those that haven't seen Expedia's zip line ad, have a look:

Her yelling as she goes down the zip line is game changing for the world of annoying ads. Simply stunning in its ability to irritate.

Anyone else hate this monstrosity?

 

I was getting on an Amtrak tonight and people literally ran and shoved each other to get on the escalator to get to the train. They then proceeded to lay across seats or put bags down so they could get two seats.

I hate all of them. Like who fucking cares. The damn train is always empty so who runs like a damn kid and the seats could fit a sumo. Who gives a shit about sitting alone.

People suck.

 

I hate those AT&T commercials with a douche bag in a suit talking to a table of kids who say dumb shit. What are they even doing? Why is an adult sitting at a table of kids?

"tape a cheetah to her back"

WHAT THE FUCK?????

Hate those. It's like they went to a kindergarten class, found the few kids who were the MOST ANNOYING and proceeded to ask them retarded questions. Who's the fuckin dude who gave that the green light?

I'm not sure who they are, but fuck the dudes who who started this new age of commercials. Why does there always have to be something totally stupid and random? That stupid "man voice" theme that started with the Old Spice commercials literally pains me. Who's the bearded ginger who thinks that is funny? The fuck is that shit? Also, I'm sick of every other commercial that has some ukelele song or upbeat little jingle, including but not limited to the over-the-top "Wayy-Ohhh way-oh" or "Ohh whoaayoh oh" shit. Fuckin Red Lobster does not need a catchy song that appeals to young hipster females. I cringe every time I see TV, so that's why I never watch it. I literally have not turned on a TV myself in close to a decade. Fuck that.

/rant. I can imagine the posted Expedia commercial would be brutal if viewed/overheard more than once in an hour span... My first time seeing it though.

"That dude is so haole, he don't even have any breath left."

They literally play the Expedia commercial back to back or every other commercial sometimes. This is every commercial break, which is about 5-7x in an hour.
