The Total Transformation ads always make me laugh.  A guy with a New York goombah accent talking about how to make your kids behave.  I don't know what he actually says.  To me, it always sounds like, "When I get through with your kids, they'll be afraid to sneeze without my permission.  And I'll teach YOU how to beat the sass out of 'em without leavin' a single mark."   :laugh:

Yeah, I always wonder what kinda scam that guy is running.

LOL, when I see that commercial I turn to the wife and say, "I'll bet it's a big stick!" I make sure the kid is within earshot too.  =D

I thought of more...

The HD radio ads comparing HD radio to various sea creatures.

The McDonald's ads.

I like those, though they're not as good as the ads that have the old radios acting like first wives, trying to keep their owners from moving on to the trophy wife HD. 

The HD virginity ads were also humorous, for what they were.

We don't have those down here. Course, this is the bible belt.

In the car with the wife and kids one time when that ad came on.  Mrs. Scout said "I wonder what those words are ?"

I just looked over at her and said "Cattle Prod".

The kids eyes almost came out of their heads.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
