TV commercials that make you LOL?
There's one that just keeps getting my. For Bud Light I think. Plane full of parachutists. First steps up to the Jump Master.

JM "You Ready?"
First "Wooooooo! Woooooooo!"
Jm "Go!"

First parachutist dives out of the plane. Second parachutist steps up top Jump Master.

JM "You Ready?"
Second "Ah, rr, I don't think I wanna jump..."
JM (Holding up a six pack) "Not even for some Bud Light?"

(JM throws the sic pack out of the plane.)

(Instantly, the pilot comes out of the cockpit, runs back through the plane and jumps out the door after the six pack. Without a chute.)

(JM and Second parachutist stare at each other for a second.)

JM "Well, seeya!" (Jumps)
Second "Uh, don't leave me!"


There is just something about that split second after the pilot jumps that just floors me.


:rofl:

1. I like the one with Kate Winslet for Mastercard.
It's more clever than funny.

2. This made me laugh in another, more vicious way
It turned me into a total Pepsi fan.

Those pricks had a bunch of sensitive, Indie types singing "I'd like to teach the world to chill" etc.

FUCKING ASSHOLES

I'd like to teach the world to sing

And teach it jokes and stuff

Then Pull it's pants down to its knees

And chase it through the rough

Then knock it out and tie it up

And check its purse for change

The leave it out at Moose Grin Hall

With cousin Ernie who's deranged.

The National Lampoon, a long time ago

4. There's a beer company up here called Alexander Keiths...
And their commercials feature a really stereotypical (almost Groundskeeper Willie-ish) Scotsman who worships the beer. They usually involve someone being careless with a bottle of Alexander Keith's and the scotsman lecturing baout it. You'd have to see it to fully recognize the hilarity of it.

20. Those are good (and so is the beer)
I love the way the latest one, with the lime wedge, pokes fun at the pretentiousness many beer drinkers show these days. Jeez, if he wants lime in it, he can order a lousy Corona!

5. That one with a man a cow and "Shake that Thing"
Cracks me up against every thing I think I am as a person.

7. Toyota safety commercial
The one where the guy is crashing cars to test them for safety and the two little kids are saying "Crash another one, Bob!"

Finally Bob says "There aren't any more cars to crash." And the little kid looks at him says "What about yours, Bob?"

I love that commercial.

Geico commercials are always pretty funny too.

Khash.

8. I've seen this one a thousand times and it still makes me......
laugh out loud.

Wife comes into the kitchen, smoothing down a dress she's trying on. She asks, "Honey, does this dress make me look fat?"

Preoccupied husband, without even thinking or glancing at his wife, answers, "You betcha!"

The wife shoots him a look that could kill and walks out of the kitchen.

Then, the narrator says, "In the time it takes to roll out the sofa-sleeper, you could save 30% on your auto insurance by switching to GEICO.


Another GEICO commercial: Two cave men (complete with thick brow bones and hairy arms) are offended when someone states that something is so simple that even a cave man could understand it. To make up for it, an apologist takes the two cave men out to dinner. The first man orderes orange duck or some other fancy-schmanzy dish and the other cave man puts down his menu smugly and states that he doesn't have much of an apetite.

14. I like the current GEICO Speed Racer and Trixie one.
But I think you'd have to have been a kid who took Speed Racer seriously to really get how funny it is.

10. "Do you feel sad about this lamp?"
"That is because you are crazy."

Also, there was one a few years ago, can't remember who it was for, where a dog is driving a pickup while Cletus, in the passenger seat, complains that he never listens to him. The truck winds up in the duck pond.

13. Oh yah, those IKEA commercials
You are sad about the cow? That is because you are crazy. You can go to IKEA and buy another.

I don't LOL about that one, but my wife does.

17. I loved that commercial....I didn't get it but I loved it!
The dog is just nonchalantly driving down the road and just all of a sudden jerks the wheel to the left and drives into the lake. I think this was a Carfax commercial!

18. He spotted some ducks
Started barking, and gave chase. I think Cletus said something to the effect of "Oh no, not again!"
