of all times??
In the late 80s there was a Pepsi ad about a scientific working with chimpancees. She was doing a report about the chimps who supposely they didn't passed the test, but actually they were very intelligent and escaped from cages and drink the Pepsi cans. Very cool.

Pepsi had lot of cool ads

YES! It's the way he says the words, plus the accent. I don't know why, but I love it too! "'Course they want pie & chips...it's pie, and chips, and it's FREE!"

I am also guilty of liking the Jimmy Dean sausage commercials - the one with the guy who's supposed to be the sun?

Daughter: "Mom doesn't do it that way, she chops everything herself."
Dad/sun: "well, this way is OK too"
Daughter: "Why?"
Dad: "Because I don't have time to do all that in the morning."
Daughter: "Why?"
Dad: "Because I have to be at work early to light and heat the earth."

Daughter silent, blankly staring at him.

And the one where dad/sun is reeeeeeeaaaally enjoying his Jimmy Dean breakfast, and his wife reads the weather forecast & he replies: "No, it won't be partly cloudy today. I think it will be mostly me. Yeah."

Yeah, the funniest thing though, is that that guy is Swedish (they love to rip on the Germans)! Remember him from Fargo and The Big Lebowski? In TBL he played one of the German nihilists.

He is a great actor. I can't remember his name though...

Dammit - I was just logging in here cuz I was sure no one had mentioned the new VW commercials - and look...

They crack me up - especially since I do remember him from Fargo - he was the guy who put Steve Buscemi in the woodchipper!!!

"VW on the engineering tip, Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'lll"

And the big blonde model, asking about the air-intake hood thingy:

Model: "Vat duz zees do?"
Auto owner: "It sucks air into the engine..."
Model: "Vell, ees definitely SUCKING!"

A man who wants his auto de-pimped says, "What?"

Talking Ducks and Monkeys??

What about the AFLAC commercials...with the duck that screams...
A F L A C!!! I crack up everythime I see them
He's like the gego (an animal selling a product..but he's a real duck not a cartoon...anyway it is a silly campaign for advertising and cracks me up... everytime I see it

And my new favorite is Trunkmonkey.com
Check it out...
It's an ad campaign from an auto group out in Wa or Or and it is called Surbaban Auto Group (I thinK)..anyway- every car you buy from them comes with a "new " security system...
(It has a red button the driver pushes in an emergency and it is called...Trunk Monkey)
Anyway the trunk opens and out comes the monkey.
It is totally halarious, and they have like 6 different ads you can watch at that website...Let me know what you think...


wishing you dreams (without commercial interuption)

^ Oh yeah! I've seen that, I like it too! I also like the Hanes one with the dance group - of course, they're all chicks so maybe you changed the channel.

I don't like the Hanes commercial with Michael Jordan & kevin Bacon. I don't get it.
