Now, back to Christmas commercials specifically, I don't know, some are sweet. They, of course, push the materialistic side of Christmas for the most part but that's their point. I guess bottom line is I don't like or dislike them any more or less than regular ones.
oh see you are stuck in the stone age with my dad I remember when I went to visit him... I was watching something on TV and I wanted to see something again and wanted to rewind it. DOH... can't do that no DVR. UGH

yeah I think most commercials are annoying at best any time of year haha.

My personal favorite ones to hate are those ones that are tryign to sell you a product to make life easier like a paper cutter where you just slide this little piece that has a blade on it and they show people trying to cut paper with scissors and they are all over the place cutting heads off of people in photos cause they can't cut in a straight line. as IF it's that difficult lol. dont' get me wrong. I have a device like that and I love that I just slide the tab and the paper is cut... but PLEASE I learned how to cut in a straight line with safety scissors in the first grade LOL Like they just try to make you feel like an idiot "are you a moron? then you need THIS"
