* \\\"[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4-e4nlfdRI I\\\'ve got something...for you!]]\\\" A commercial for Eagle Insurance (a car insurance company from Chicago) with bad acting, NoBudget, and [[YouFailBiologyForever a male eagle laying an egg]].

SoBadItsGood at worst. The comments back this up. If people are laughing at the cheapness, it doesn\\\'t count.

* [[http://adland.tv/commercials/people-against-dirty-shiny-suds-2009-70-usa This]] advertisement against chemical residues left behind by cleaning products had to be pulled because \\\'\\\'it triggered rape flashbacks\\\'\\\'.

This one is strange. Yes, I get that it has unsettling subject matter. What I don\\\'t see is how it\\\'s hated by the majority. A group of people complained about it, but the commercial appears to have the \\\"suds\\\" acting \\\'\\\'intentionally creepy\\\'\\\'. You can\\\'t fault a commercial for suggesting the same behaviour that\\\'s being called out by people. That said, the AdAge article also indicates that the majority of people who\\\'ve commented on this video online thought it was funny or good. I don\\\'t think this fits, but I could be wrong.
