I thought this would be fun. Heh.

So what was that first TV commercial that grabbed your attention? The one you don't remember for what it was trying to sell, but for how catchy/hilarious/amazing it was. The one you won't ever forget because it reminds you of good old times, maybe. The ad that's stuck in your head from your childhood. Ah.

You may also post a YouTube link to that commercial (if any). Should be YWS-friendly.

Shoot.

Oh man, I've seen a lot of bizarre commercials. I remember seeing this one.

It just weirded me out honestly. It's... not even may favorite one. One of my favorites was:

@Pompadour I vaguely remember that Ding Dong ad from the time when one could still watch PTV here.

But the ad that's permanently stuck in my head is this, lol:

I wouldn't call this my favourite commercial (I doubt I even have one), but this one keeps appearing on TV and literally, whenever it does me and my whole family practically belt out the lyrics (though, I'm usually off to the side shaking my head in embarrassment!)

It's strange but equally funny! >.<

Hey everyone remember that one Superbowl commercial with the stupid jingle that gets stuck in your head for a week every time you watch it? Yeah, if you don't, now you do...

Some random old ones I remember:

"Dude, you're getting a Dell!"
"That's the Spirit, Spirit Airlines!"
"Libby's Juicy Juice. 100 percent juice for 100 percent kids" (I was reminded of this one on a Buzzfeed article the other day)
"I'm your Venus, I'm your fire, your desire" (I'm almost positive this is an actual song, but it's inextricably linked in my mind with the Gillette Venus commercials. I also remember a Skintimate commercial, which now has me wondering why there were so many women's shaving cream ads on Nick Jr. in the 90's/early 00's).

I don't even know why I remember this.
