I hate infomercials.
With a passion.
I can be asleep before an infomercial begins and subconsciously hear the television yapping at me to ‘ORDER NOW!‘ or suggesting I make ‘THREE EASY PAYMENTS!‘ and I cringe.
In my sleep!
I honestly have to change the channel when one comes on.
I believe they are the biggest waste of time evah.
I’ve never seen something on an infomercial and, at two in the morning, thought, “Holy crap, I need that now!”
In fact, I have never ever watched an infomercial that compelled me to reach for the telephone. Ever.
I will admit that I have bought several items, at the store, that are clearly marked, “as seen on tv’.
Have I seen them on TV? I doubt it.
Does the big ‘as seen on tv’ signage on the box draw my attention to the item I’m considering purchasing?
No.
Not at all.
Why, you ask?
Because, I HATE INFOMERCIALS!
I do anything within my power to avoid these television time wasters.
And, after giving you this new information to ponder and process, I bid you adieu.

Infomercials are one of the reasons i refuse to own a credit card. I am always drawn into those things, i always end up think OMG I want that!
My middle brat is the same way,. he will see a commercial, for, say the tide pen thingy, and recite it word for word to me, trying his damnedest to convince me why we NEED the product.
its cute, but annoying!
