Apply Directly To The Forehead!

I can only hope that there is a special place in hell for the dare I say "creative" minds responsible for the HeadOn! Apply Directly To The Forehead! commercial. If you have been lucky enough to avoid it, and you want to see just how freaking annoying it actually is, feel free to check it out, just don't say you haven't been warned. After losing the battle to find the remote and hit the mute button too many times, my new strategy is to just stop watching channels that show the commercial. Take THAT, CNN!

I'm just glad that they don't market a Viagra based product, I can only imagine how annoying that would be; HardOn! Apply Directly To The Penis!...HardOn! Apply Directly To The Penis!... At least THIS version is an improvement on the original.

You hit the nail on the head, no pun intended. Actually, I think their plan is to give viewers a headache precisely so that they will need this product. It's a classic advertising trick: first create the market, then cater to it.
