Anyone else find those Nextel Commericial damn irritating??!!!
I've been watching the Emmy's and Nextel seems to have bought plenty of ad time, airing what I believe is the most irritating commerical out there.

A wedding, a play of Romeo & Juliet and 2 people negotiating a salary. And instead of talking to each other they use their cell phones.

Is this what our country is? Americans unwilling to talk directly with others and instead just using their phones?

1. I saw that ad for the first time today
Pretty stupid. These "walkie-talkies" are just nuts. Like everyone within a couple houses really wants to hear your conversation. There was a contractor in front of my neighbor's house using one of those. I could hear both sides of the conversation just fine from my garage.

3. I'm irritated by all the Clairol commercials.
They must think that women who care about their looks are stupid bimbos.

I've never liked the orgasmic-organic ones where women get their hair shampooed at work. Now I despise the streaking party one where the men show up only in trench coats. And the women inside are all wrappped in white towels? Just what the hell where they streaking, anyway?
