Re: Local TV Ads You Don't Like
Remington College ads continue to be an embarrassment to the students that attend the school. Are you afraid of "mean instructors" at college?? Then instead go to Remington, according to the pitchman (Tiny T.). Want a college to attend that is "Wow, just like High School"? Then go to Remington, he advises. If I was a student there, I'd be upset that I was being represented as not being able to emotionally hack it at a University.

Horrible ad. Pull it off the air. On a scale of 1 to 10, it's a zero.
Anyway Erika did a piece on this subject a couple months back:

Re: Local TV Ads You Don't Like
I suspect that the Aloha Kia ads with the rapping big rodents would fit into the Least Favorite National TV Ads thread but the way its aired here is done twice in a row.

I don't know if it's a local tv ad or part of a newstory. He mentioned he got goosebumps. He supposed to say he got chicken skin.

Aloha Kia's Cash for Clunkers spot, the one with the Obama voice imposter, has been run into the ground! Ugh!

I used to just ignore her saying "wefoih kjh ioubb vakjh. ljheg dhip oiht." But after a few months I decided to try to interpret what she was saying, so each time the commercial came on I'd try to pick out individual words. As best I can tell, she's saying "Call my Uncle Jack. He's the best."
I think.
The commercial has aired for at least a year, so they oughta re-shoot it and perhaps she's learned to speak better.
Putting your kids/relatives in your commercial may be a cute idea, but not if they can't be understood.
