We tolerate commercials about mucous, foot fungus, and mental problems that don\u2019t really exist like social anxiety disorder. We\u2019re guessing showing old men running to the bathroom just causes people to change the channel.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Kanye West<\/strong> \u2013 We always knew Kanye was an idiot. Luckily, now everyone else knows too. The truth always comes when the fame to IQ ratio is too high. Tom Cruise proved this theory a while ago.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>TV shows and movies about vampires<\/strong> \u2013 Enough already. Not interesting. People started writing about vampires a few hundred years ago. It has seriously run its course. Making them all look like male models doesn\u2019t make them more interesting. How about some original writing.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Driving on steel plates<\/strong> \u2013 Thanks to road repair funds provided by the brilliant government stimulus package, we get to take detours all day and drive on noisy steel plates.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Delta Airlines<\/strong> \u2013 Thanks to Delta, CVG is the most expensive airport in the country for the zillionth year in a row. Something like 600% above the national average. Wha?<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Millions of losers who borrowed mortgages they couldn\u2019t afford<\/strong> &#8211; Way to get greedy and wreak havoc on our economy. Also, hats off to the greedy bank bastards who loaned you the money and then asked the government for a bail out. You should be in jail with Bernie Madoff.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Using social networking to grow your social networks<\/strong> &#8211; \u201cHey if you like my clever Tweets, join my LinkedIn page to hear about my breathtaking career and friend me on Facebook so we can connect more organically.\u201d Dude, stop it.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>eHarmony commercials<\/strong> \u2013 Thanks for forcing the 29 dimensions of compatibility down our throat every time we turn the TV on. Seriously, people married 50 years have 2 or 3 dimensions of compatibility, tops! Also, who actually believes the paid models in the commercials telling their romantic stories about how they met on eHarmony? We\u2019d be more interested to hear about how they broke up on Facebook.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag<\/strong> \u2013 We\u2019d rather watch pharmaceutical commercials than these two. Her premature plastic surgery is sad. His smarmy, self-important personality is revolting. The combination of the two is unwatchable.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Farmville<\/strong> \u2013 Sooo, it was fun for a while but we\u2019re done now right? Let\u2019s put it away then kids. It\u2019s clogging up our Facebook pages.<strong><br><br>Two additional DERF bonus items:<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Sush<\/strong>i \u2013 Can use say \u201csushi saturation\u201d? Enough already. What\u2019s next, sushi in Starbucks? We\u2019re over this trend of a sushi restaurant on every corner. And what\u2019s with every sushi place offering half price sushi pretty much every day. News flash to sushi restaurateurs: Half price is your permanent price now. Enough with the half-price sidewalk signs everywhere.<\/li><li><\/li><li><strong>Flannel<\/strong> \u2013 Don\u2019t kid yourself into thinking this is a real trend. You\u2019re still a douche if you wear flannel. Just because The Gap threw together some commercials about flannel doesn\u2019t mean flannel is in. Remember this: If you trust The Gap for fashion guidance, you\u2019re on the express train to Doucheville.<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Top Ten Worst of 2009 List (plus 2 extra bonus items) Flomax commercials \u2013 Pharmaceutical commercials in general are out of control.
