There ia a commercial that runs constantly that just makes wonder. This lady says, "I have 2 newborn twins". Now does she really think I am so dense I don't know that if she has twins she has 2? Does she really need to tell us there are 2?

i hear redundancy all of the time. not only in commercials, but newscasters as well.

On a related note, I love it when a family has twins, a boy and a girl, and someone asks if they're identical?! :-)

I hate the one AT&T runs where the woman tells her Husband she should have don what her Mother said and married another man.Don't we have enough hurtful and bad things going on in our world without seeing it on a commercial.

Crafty Pat, I totally agree it is hurtful amd really gives a terrible message.

I've witnessed this so I know it happens. Guess it's just one of those moments when someone's mouth flaps before the brain engages! :-)

The commercial where everyone including strangers gives some poor man a wedgie is disgusting.

I don't like that one. I feel so sorry for him. I bet he wishes she would have married John Clark.

The one I can't stand is where the little bear has toliet paper stuck to his bottom. That makes me yell everytime..."Let me check and see!" Stupid....
