Any commercials making you laugh?

I thought I'd share a 'local' commercial for a furniture store here in Mich where mattresses are on sale.....

Salesman shows a mattress set to a couple. Husband lays down to test it and immediately starts snoring. The wife looks at the saleman and wonders how all the salesmen stay awake to sell these mattresses. Camera cuts to show employee room where all the salespeople are gulping pots of coffee from THE pot and eating the coffee beans straight from the bag. Clever...IMHO.

I saw a sign and bought it to put up in my window for my summer business:

ATTENTION: All children left unattended will be sold as slaves. This is SO me Laughing

My favorite used to be the Mazada kid that would go "Zoom Zoom" then you would have the chorus of Zoom Zoom Zoom

There's this one commercial that I don't see very often, but it makes me laugh every time I see it. I think it's for International Delight coffee creamer, and it has Wayne Brady in it. He sings a song about the creamer to the tune of "Say a Little Prayer."

There's this ad running up here for a muscle analgesic cream called "Lakota". You have an old Indian chief, all wrinkled and covered with this feather headdress, holding up a tube of the stuff and saying something like "Oochipiwipi, opaka waka, Lakota, wapanippi hooka!" while a subtitle translates his selling the virtues of Lakota cream... at the end, as they translate "Lakota - it works!" he holds up his fist for more emphasis... it's sooooo stereotyped it's funny.

i always loved the kitkat add, where there is a lady on the phone and you hear her saying in a tired voice "Hi sherrly, i know, i know *sigh* i know" she then places the phone in the bird cage where the bird starts going "i know i know, oh i know' while the lady eats a kit kat and the slogan is "have a brake, have a kit kat." i love it!

No recent faves but my siggy is entirely lines form soem commercials that I think all of you are too young to remmeber.
MEmory is an odd thing, but when you think about it, what else do we have of anyone or anything, even when they're right here with us? Gee, I honestly didn't plan on typing that when I started this post.
