that stupid AO-hell commercial |
|
where they are in a cafeteria and the guy dumps "a whole bunch of spam" on the other guy's sandwich is going to make me crazy! x( i try to change channels during commercials, but this one is on so much, you can't help but see it. stupid AOL! just one more reason to hate it.
what commercial makes your skin crawl every time you hear it?

in the early 90's when it was a great place to be...
we dumped them 5 years ago and have never looked back.
On edit - I warned my dad this last fall what would happen when he cancelled his account..thank GOD I did because it was a NIGHTMARE for him to try and cancel...he had to call his credit card company and tell them any further charges from AOL was stealing...and the PHONE CALL from hell to cancel...he still talks about it even now, like he was in a war zone.
AOL is not the company it was a decade ago.

you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave"

back about 1997, they kept billing our checking account for two additional months. Rather than pay us back, they attempted to offer us "free service" for four months instead. I advised them that if I was satisfied with their crappy service, I wouldn't cancel them.

I really cannot stand it any more than you can. It drives me nuts, and I have what I believe to be a high threshold for pain.

I fucking despise that commercial!!!!!!!!!!!!
So glad I'm not the only one. My SO is bewildered by my reaction to things like that. He doesn't even notice them, so it makes me even more irritated. Then I start wondering if there's something wrong with ME.

And the ones with the "engine start" button. What's that about?
BTW I hate that AOL commercial, too - especially the part where the stupid guy follows the other one to the cashier as if he's going to eat the spammity calamity.
