uberAileen- 623 diggs
- digg it
- smurfz, on 02/05/2008, -5/+48I wasn't that impressed with a lot of the commercials this yeah.
- jeremyjudkins, on 02/05/2008, -3/+18year*
- humpy, on 02/05/2008, -1/+57He's from Boston.
- rentmitchum, on 02/05/2008, -0/+19Dugg for being the most likely explanation.
- Muncher, on 02/05/2008, -1/+17I'll bet the commercials weren't the only thing he wasn't impressed with, then.
- DarkSamus, on 02/05/2008, -5/+2i too found the commericals upsetting
- Whaines, on 02/05/2008, -1/+3The local ones that ran during halftime were more impressive.
- Ajajadude, on 02/05/2008, -0/+6Ugh, nothing like seeing "Vote yes on Propositions 94-97!" only to see "Vote no on propositions 94-97!"
- TwangerD, on 02/05/2008, -1/+0Seriously, my favorite (besides the doristos mouse) was the shaving cream guy wandering around the street in a towel. that was local in NYC.
- antdude, on 02/05/2008, -1/+1Even the HD-DVD one? Not even in HD format. Yuck.
- doshindude, on 02/05/2008, -2/+4New Englander, eh?
- akatherder, on 02/05/2008, -1/+12Canadian, eh?
- MasterPlayer, on 02/05/2008, -1/+11yeah, this yeah was not the Superbowl's best yeah for commercials.
- limpits, on 02/05/2008, -3/+2murderer!
- rentmitchum, on 02/05/2008, -0/+31I saw this one commercial, and they said "forget everything you know about slipcovers". So I did. It was a load off my mind. Then the commercial tried to sell me slip covers, and I didn't know what the hell they were!
- yohnstoppable, on 02/05/2008, -0/+8Chicago is known as the Windy City, and Montana is called the Big Sky State, so I think that we should somehow combine the two to create the ultimate kite-flying experience.
- rentmitchum, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1I haven't heard that one. Awesome. =)
- npres1, on 02/05/2008, -0/+5dugg for mitch. RIP mitch.
- yohnstoppable, on 02/05/2008, -0/+8Chicago is known as the Windy City, and Montana is called the Big Sky State, so I think that we should somehow combine the two to create the ultimate kite-flying experience.
- STARTSOMETHING, on 02/05/2008, -1/+2"Ross Wolinsky: I don’t even know what this is. Do they want me to buy a Kina Grannis mp3 or a bag of Doritos?"
- holycrapitsed, on 02/05/2008, -2/+29Coincidentally, this link also includes the 10 worst cracked.com post-video comments.
- yohnstoppable, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1Agreed. I enjoy cracked, but this is one of their worst articles in recent memory.
- SmooveO, on 02/05/2008, -3/+78How is Carlos Mencia even on TV anymore? Has he ever been funny?
- AAK15, on 02/05/2008, -2/+17no
- AshamedAmerican, on 02/05/2008, -2/+35Depends on which comedian's jokes he's stealing at the moment.
- insllvn, on 02/05/2008, -8/+1Once, but it was a long time ago and no one remembers exactly when or where.
- RoroCo, on 02/05/2008, -1/+16His name is Ned Holness. Calling him Carlos Mencia is just propagating the fraud.
- rentmitchum, on 02/05/2008, -1/+4NO
- yohnstoppable, on 02/05/2008, -0/+8It was funny to watch him squirm while called out by Rogan on stage. Does that count?
- inverselogic, on 02/05/2008, -0/+0Rogan>Ned..
- W00DR0W, on 02/05/2008, -13/+6Wow that sucked. Some weren’t even lame and some that were lame had stupid explanations as to why.
And as a pretty PC black guy I’m still not getting how that first one was racist, it was another “Bad Idea” commercial like the fire one.
Saying it says black people can’t fly speaks more to their psychology than the poeple who made the commercial. - dunnylovehun, on 02/05/2008, -4/+4Hmmm...I think this was one of the funnier things I've seen on Cracked in a while (I'm an admitted fanboy). Definitely different than most of the stuff...a little subtler and some of the opinions seemed to be sarcastic. But I agree with all of the picks. Especially the Pandas.
- coit, on 02/05/2008, -1/+1I was a Cracked fanboy as well..... back in the 70s when it was in print and I was 12.
- DarkSamus, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1noob, they've been sending me my pdf copy since 1958
- coit, on 02/05/2008, -1/+1I was a Cracked fanboy as well..... back in the 70s when it was in print and I was 12.
- sjbdallas, on 02/05/2008, -3/+16I will admit that there have been several super bowls where the game was lousy and the only good thing was watching great commercials. This year, I could care less what the commercials were because the game was fantastic.
- AAK15, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2yeah it seemed opposite this year, good game average commercials. I kinda like it
- RG13, on 02/05/2008, -1/+3Personally, i thought the game was really boring until the last quarter. I mean, barely anything happened in the first half.
- AllnightChemist, on 02/05/2008, -2/+9I'll just assume they all tied for worst and skip this one.
- AAK15, on 02/05/2008, -20/+7Nothing lamer in Super Bowl XLII than Tom Petty
- Falldog, on 02/05/2008, -6/+15Petty was awesome.
- doshindude, on 02/05/2008, -8/+6No, he wasn't.
- Namco, on 02/05/2008, -2/+3Yes he was, and still is, and always will be.
- doshindude, on 02/05/2008, -8/+6No, he wasn't.
- DarkSamus, on 02/05/2008, -1/+2the other tom was much lamer
- Falldog, on 02/05/2008, -6/+15Petty was awesome.
- Falldog, on 02/05/2008, -5/+1"Read on, and you just may find the answer."
Here's hoping. - whatthefu, on 02/05/2008, -2/+27The people at cracked have unfunny conversations.
- SRSco, on 02/05/2008, -4/+3Cracked is very unfunny.
- SRSco, on 02/05/2008, -11/+7I almost dugg this for them admitting how stupid that Doritos commercial with that bitch you all like only because she pandered to your stupid asses just to get votes, then I realized it was cracked and cracked is painfully unfunny.
- jmpeagle, on 02/05/2008, -5/+4badgers are funny http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOxR7rTYuSI
- Dysarthria, on 02/05/2008, -0/+9Only 10?
- Linzee82, on 02/05/2008, -0/+4Yeah. An article titled "All the commercials sucked" probably wouldn't have gathered too many readers.
- MewTwo, on 02/05/2008, -0/+5That sunsilk one is really super lame.
- GRTWHT, on 02/05/2008, -2/+5Buried for just being another 'List of ___ Superbowl Commercials' - this has been done and overdone, time to move on folks.
BTW, lame. - mt066, on 02/05/2008, -1/+11The Thriller one was screwed up by the fact that nobody was a zombie, and especially because that girl was like the exact opposite of a zombie. She was in perfect shape....why would she do the choreographed zombie dance from Thriller? Also, lizards, wtf...It would have been funnier if it was just regular businessmen or janitors or something.
As you can see, I have given this a lot of thought.- inverselogic, on 02/05/2008, -0/+0The What is love one had to be the most worn and tired joke ever =/
- fabiosir, on 02/06/2008, -0/+1I called the Chief Executive Officer, PepsiCo International and Vice Chairman, PepsiCo and told him that a bunch of people need to be fired just on the basis of that one commercial.
And I'm never drinking Pepsi products or eating at a Pepsi restaurant again.
- Innisskillin, on 02/05/2008, -2/+3Those commercials sucked almost as much as random lists of commercials that suck.
- Trav3133, on 02/05/2008, -6/+8horrah they mentioned that crappy singer
- jake07, on 02/05/2008, -0/+3I watched all of them. They were lamer than I thought they would be.
- JigoroKano, on 02/05/2008, -0/+10How about the HD-DVD commercial that only aired in SD.
It was regional if you missed it.- ivosilva, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1lol!
- JonRick, on 02/05/2008, -2/+1The only thing lame around here is this list.
- antiorblkflag9, on 02/05/2008, -9/+2Carlos Mencia ftw
- DarkSamus, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2reaching for the most buried list are we
- antiorblkflag9, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1I don't see why, Carlos Mencia sucks and his ad was horrible
- DarkSamus, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2reaching for the most buried list are we
- segura, on 02/05/2008, -1/+6Nice to see I wasn't the only one that thought the Doritos "Kina Grannis" was lame. They should have just given her the $2.7 mil and saved my time in the process.
- buddamus, on 02/05/2008, -2/+17KINA GRANNIS was made famous by digg so we should get royalties
- drgooch, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2there were only 10? i thought all of them were lame, compared to years past.
- computarded, on 02/05/2008, -2/+5I laughed at Will Ferrel's Bud Light commercial: "Bud Light - suck one"
- roberto_deneero, on 02/05/2008, -2/+3lame
- had3l, on 02/05/2008, -0/+9But but... Kina Grannis is the digg girl, she isn't lame, is she?
- yohnstoppable, on 02/05/2008, -2/+5yes
- inverselogic, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1Random as hell singing with fade to black doritos logo...mmmmmmmmmmmmkay?
- iwillrefuse, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2I cannot *believe* the Carmen Elektra gum commercial was omitted from this list. That commercial would have been bad during an episode of "Everybody Loves Raymond."
- thanakar, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2This is at least third top 10 list referencing superbowl ads in the last 2 days. Buried as getting old and lame.
- yohnstoppable, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2And now you know the REAL ***** reason so many people bury the scientology *****.
- roberto_deneero, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2None of the ads were even remotely good this year. What happened?
- PhilThePhenom, on 02/05/2008, -1/+6Oh no! Digg Girl got owned by Superbowl!!
- acirrone, on 02/05/2008, -3/+2Buried for calling the Flight Bud Light commercial racist. I don't know how you could get racism from the commercial unless your specifically looking for it... e.g. Reverend Al Sharpton
- ScionX, on 02/05/2008, -1/+2We'll both be buried for it, but I agree.
- unreg, on 02/05/2008, -0/+0Exactly how many more of these "Top/Bottom/Best/Worse Superbowl Ad will Digg have this week?
- SSCrow, on 02/05/2008, -4/+1"Thriller -Pepsi Cola"
Uhh thats Sobe and their new beverage. *****.
"Never Say Never - General Motors"
I love this ad simply for the awesome animation, its stylistic and well executed.- riotnerd28, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1Sobe is owned by Pepsi Cola... *****.
- fabiosir, on 02/06/2008, -0/+1That was so stupid, I've just got to jump on the bandwagon here. *****.
- MsGo, on 02/05/2008, -1/+4Carlos Mencia = the fake Mexican, unfunny version of Dave Chappelle, with stolen jokes from SOOO many sources.
But that doesn't matter to Comedy Central, as long as he makes them money. - JedicodeWarrior, on 02/05/2008, -8/+3They all sucked! NFL = national ***** league. Five hours of listening to overpaid losers get paid to talk about some 'roid-fed ***** and some insignificant play they had two years ago. And all those "I-kneel-down-and-pray-to-jesus-when-the-camera-is-on-me" assholes who, I'm sure, are calling to jesus when they're coked up and banging some whore.
- SwedishNinja, on 02/05/2008, -1/+5One day, I hope to be as bitter as you, sir.
- skyfire1, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2This is why I am a Sith Lord.
- wallryan, on 02/05/2008, -0/+3the kina grannis thing wasnt lame its cool she won
- Subriot, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1Only 10 lame Super Bowl ads? I thought 90% of them are lame.
- StuTheMeatMan, on 02/05/2008, -0/+2It says lamEST.
- elshizzo, on 02/05/2008, -1/+2The E-trade baby and the thriller-gecko's were way lamer than these.
- aparatoc, on 02/05/2008, -0/+1The thriller geckos.. almost made me want to kill myself..then then I just got up and got a beer.. it was all better.
- segura, on 02/05/2008, -1/+0Seriously, how many of you told your buddies that you knew who Doritos "Kina Grannis" was when she sang in the commercial? I was like "what is this junk", even though I knew she was the digg ho.
- Tomson74, on 02/06/2008, -0/+0They all SUCKED>
case closed.
if the game is good, commercials suck, if the game sucks, the commercials are good
the game was good, so all the commercials sucked.
