1. What are the best advertising jingles of all time?

  2. The most annoying, but also the best of all time.

    Mentos, the fresh maker.

  3. FreeCreditReport.com.. even though that business is a total scam. I miss the cute Canadian guy whose voice they dubbed.

  4. "All beef patty special sauce lettuce cheese pickles onions on a sesame seed bun!"

    ------------------
    HA! That is a good one!

  6. Big Mac! mmmmmmm

  7. Rene C: I love the cheesiness of that commercial. It was so annoyingly fabulous!

  8. "Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't.. Almond Joys got nuts, Mounds don't!"

  9. How about the Energizer Bunny. He's been around since the dawn of man.

  10. Ali O.. missed that one.. I've only lived here for 16 years, 2 days. Yeah, I'm keeping count.. and my landlord hates me for it, ha ha! Rent control.......... so great!

  11. Heinz Ketchup/"Anticipation"

  12. Another annoying commercial, perfect! The annoying ones are the most effective 'cause you can't get the brand out of your mind.

    I like the E*Trade baby, too. Apparently there's a new one airing that I haven't seen yet.

  13. Love it or hate it, the I "Heart" NY campaign was huge. You see copycats of that worldwide.

  14. Rene C. says:

    Heinz Ketchup/"Anticipation"

    ++++++++++++  perfect!

  15. The E Trade babies flying in 1st class is hilarious, "DAD"

  16. Oh... remember the great campaign for Helmsley Hotels? "The Only Palace Where the Queen Stands Guard".. wow, Leona Helmsley was such a B!

  17. Jennifer "Jennifer "What Fresh Hell Is This?"" O. says:

    Oh... remember the great campaign for Helmsley Hotels? "The Only Palace Where the Queen Stands Guard".. wow, Leona Helmsley was such a B!
    ------------------
    That woman was/is Satan!

  18. Have you seen the campaign for Mass Mutual (airs on CNBC a lot) where a business meeting is at a Chinese restaurant and the menu is in Mandarin and the waitress speaks no English.. and the 50-something business woman pipes up in perfect Mandarin (like I'd know, right? ha ha) and impresses all the guys at the table. So cool.

  19. Oh yeah.. Rene C.. Life Cereal! "Hey Mikey!"

  20. I have seen that commercial! It's catchy and smart!

  21. Wendy's "where's the beef!"

  22. Green Giant! And the little niblet!

  23. Rene C. says:

    Wendy's "where's the beef!"

    __________

    I just wanted to beat that old woman with her cane!

  24. Ooooo.. the stock market just opened.. I'll be right back!

  25. Good call on the Jolly Green Giant! When I was a kid I wanted to be him! Not sure why, now that I think about it that was really weird. Forget I mentioned that.

  26. -Hands Jennifer a cane. Whack her once for me too.

  27. (Jennifer snorting with laughter over Rene C's commentary!)

  28. Market's up 87 points on the open, wheeee!!!!!

  29. "Tony Put a Tiger in My Tank!" I can't remember what gas station that was for, I was way young.

  30. How about "I Think I'll Keep My Wife" (commercial for Geritol.. do they make that shit anymore.. what is it.. geezer speed?)

  31. The market had a kick butt september, will we see the same for October?

  32. Tony in the tank? , hmmmm was that Exxon?

  33. ooooooo Geritol! HAHA! That's funny

  34. Best September in 70 years! And that's not usually the case. I think we'll see when the jobs report comes out Friday.

    I think it was Exxon.. wasn't it Esso way back when? Can't remember..

  35. How about a shout out to the Maytag repairman!

  36. I have the tagline wrong, It was:

    "My Wife (husband gives creepy shoulder hug and rocks her) .. I Think I'll Keep Her."

  37. Esso, that sounds right.

  38. Aww... I miss the Maytag Man.. the lonliest repair man in history!

  39. I guess the Maytag guy didn't really have a jingle.

  40. (gotta rent a movie from the 60s to check the brand name.. giggling.. )

  41. I'd like to buy the world a Coke....

    youtube.com/watch?v=Q8H5…

  42. What beer was that - Budweiser? (obviously not a beer babe although I might just be pissed that Marcello's pizza told me "we don't DELIVER beer" (what???) The pizza was outstanding though..

  43. ...And keep it company... what's the rest.. mind's a blank.

  44. Remember the product Ayds (diet supplement)? My creepy grandmother took those. Guess that product went down in flames..

  45. In honor of Bob Pritikin, advertising genius and all around San Francisco eccentric:

    The best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup!

    Amazing how in ten short years the world went from Stepford Wives sexism of the 1970s youtube.com/watch?v=Ed3v… to this one, which could have been made today except for the hair styles.  youtube.com/watch?v=s86U…

  46. Doublemint Gum, 'Double Your Pleasur

  47. Huh, Bob Pritikin made up the Folger's tune? Wow! I met him once.. he is eccentric.. and kind of mean. He had this weird magic show he wanted to advertise.

  48. Jennifer "Jennifer "What Fresh Hell Is This?"" O. says:

    Remember the product Ayds (diet supplement)? My creepy grandmother took those. Guess that product went down in flames..
    -------------------
    LOL!@!!! I totally remember those! My mom bought those. Scary stuff

  49. That Doublemint commercial always seem to suggest those girls wanted a 3-way.. "Double Your Pleasure, Double Your Fun!"

    WTF?

    How did that account executive get away with that?

  50. Gil.. whatcha saying? I HAVE one of those hairstyles (giggling)..

  51. Did poor Burger King ever make a mark?

  53. Oh.. the Faberge Organics commercial.. "I told two friends and then they told two friends..."

  54. The NFL Burger King commercials were funny, but no real jingles

  55. Mike M - good one!

  56. meow meow meow meow meow meow meow

    youtube.com/watch?v=LTun…

    meow mix!

  57. Crazy brands from the 70s:

    Giggle deodorant (came in this bubble-polka dotted container, totally girly)
    Lip Smackers
    Love's Baby Soft (had a creepy tagline.. what was it??... "x.. but not too far from innocence.. girl dressed like a little girl licking a lollipop suggestively)

    Body on Tap (shampoo that looked like a beer bottle and had beer in it.. I think I tasted it one time, out of curiosity)

  58. Oh oh.. I've got it: Love's Baby Soft.. "Sensual, but not too far from innocence."

  59. Irish Spring, "Manly yes, but I like it too"

  60. Oh.. Enjoli!

    "I bring home the bacon.. fry it up in a pan and never never ever let you forget you're a man... 'cause I'm a WOMAN, Enjoli"

    (I think Raquel Welch was in that one, right?)

  61. Raquel Welch, perks up!

    Has she been in anything since that Seinfeld episode?

  62. Rene C. says:

    Irish Spring, "Manly yes, but I like it too"

    (Jennifer screaming with laughter and pointing to computer screen) "YES!!"

  63. She was on Oprah, caught it in re-runs. She looks amazing.

  64. Raquel Welch may have been my very first celebrity crush. But not my first crush, that honor goes to my kindergarten teacher oooo baby!

  65. (market's up 108 points!)

  66. Hot for Teacher, hee hee..

  67. I love this recent Old Spice ad with the bear running after Ray Lewis. My wife thinks it's odd.

    youtube.com/watch?v=bnLN…

  68. When it gets to 50,000 I am quitting my job, any chance of that happening today?

  69. Mmmmm... no. Guess you'll have to go to work today :(

  70. Damn! :) Well I work from home, so double Damn!

  74. ...sending link to my father.. he doesn't get my sense of humor sometimes.. oh well.

  75. I'm working from bed, at some point I will make it to the living room and eventually my office. But i don't like to think that far ahead. oooooo, I am meeting a client for lunch! That's something to look forward to, unless of course we hit that magic 50,000 mark!

    Hard to say. It's already expected to be bad so it may have already been priced in.

    If the jobs report isn't as bad as expected then markets may continue to run. I do like the overall negative sentiment. Good time to selectively buy
