Just a quick vent. If you know, Its a insurence comercial. AWWWW..No more please!!! 2 years at 3 times an hour....I have hit mute so many times. I call It anti-advetising. I will never buy that.

Love the cat site... Share my misery if you seen it.

Just saw one and thought of you and this thread.
She doesn't bother me all that much, but I suppose that's because she reminds me of a friend of mine that I rarely hear from anymore. She's fun and a little kooky, like Flo is supposed to be.

at first I thought this post was going to be about a woman complaining of her monthly "Aunt Flo" LOL.

Ummm, someone wanna share a youtube link or something for those of us who have no clue who Flo is? (me? LOL)

It's the Progressive commercials. I'm sure Youtube will have something. Ya know, the "big, tricked-out name tag" lady. I kind of like her

Yes this commercial is annoying but then most insurance commercials leave a lot to be desired...
The caveman ones are totally stupid,
The duck one makes no sense.
The only one I actually think is cute is the gecko for geico one.

I like her too!!
However, they do run the commericals over, and over, and over

I like the Geico gecko but lately those are getting too corny.

I never thought to google her before, but apparently she's a stand-up comedienne and part of an improv comedy group. Been in some movies, too. Gotta hand it to her, she's certainly made herself a household name...and face!

Flo can be annoying.

I used to like the caveman commercials. Then they made that stupid sitcom about them and I was over them.

I like the duck. I'm a fan of his on Facebook


Hopefully they won't make a sitcom about the duck and ruin him too.

The geko's cute.

I am a fan of Flo but I do not like the company she harks.
It is one of the few commercials I'll actually watch.

She has many fans I hear, just like the freecreditreport.com singing guy.

Oh yeah- the freecreditreport.com commercials are too funny.

Even my 15 year old likes them


The kids had a running discussion about them last year when she worked at the library over the summer

Don't know the commercial - the only "Flo" I know is "Kiss mah grits!" Flo from the 70's-80's sitcom "Alice". This isn't her, is it?

For those of us who don't know Flo...


I don't mind these commercials... I have seen this one before, but didn't know her name what Flo.

lol the commercials usually make me laugh the first few times I see them, then they lose their humor but I don't generally find them annoying. I think my favorite one is the mind reader one.. "What am I thinking about?" "Tacos" "YYYEEESSSSS!" .... it's almost an "adult film" "yes" haha.

Geico's googley eyed money commercials get on my nerves tho.

The commercials I find the most annoying is anything advertising to children... those make me want to do bad things to the people that make them...
