    Burned on food in pans. They say their dishwasher pods can clean them. Nonsense.

      Dirty toothpaste? 


      (Someone probably misread the question. Cough, cough.)

    I think teeth would be the correct answer.

    Yes, it’s a real commercial that airs on some radio stations.

      Dirty employees? What’s the product or service being advertised?

    It’s for an HR outsourcing service.

    *phone rings* I’m getting complaints that someone on the team smells really bad, every day.

    The company that runs this annoying commercial is Bambee.  The radio station that I listen to in the morning always has one really annoying commercial that I can’t stand and right now this is the one. This post was edited by Livvie at February 19, 2023 1:09 PM MST

      Locally in Southern California, it’s the annoying “Kars 4 Kids” radio spots that drive me up the wall. They start out with a little kid (or an adult voice portraying a kid) singing their jingle, as soon as I hear the first notes of it, I either turn the volume all the way down, change the station, or turn the radio off.  These commercials have been playing for at least five years now, and recently here on AnswerMug, someone posted that the same type of ads play on the radio stations where he or she lives in the Midwest.

    I remember threatening to have you tortured with that jingle before.
