- This
commercial for Charmin Ultra Soft toilet paper. We have a blue cartoon bear giving a Barry White-esque serenade to his girl bear. He then reaches over... and grabs some toilet paper. He proceeds to rub it all over him. Insert spiel about how awesome the toilet paper is. He then passes the toilet paper to the girl bear, who then proceeds to rub it all over him while they look at each other amorously. It's safe to assume that furry toilet paper fetish foreplay ensued. - Old Spice. "The Man Your Man Could Smell Like" series is bizarre, but still clear in the presentation of its thesis. "The Heart of a Champion," however, is sheer insanity.
- Terry Crews' Odor Blocker ads have it both ways. Why they zoom in to show him chilling out in his own armpit makes sense, but it's hard to explain what the hell the talking tiger is doing.
- Naturally, these ads were done by Tim & Eric.

- "Suzi Van Zoom" from McDonald's involves a girl riding a bicycle to the titular restaurant... and that's all you get, she rides through a bunch of surreal jungle landscapes picking up animals on her way to McDonald's while it's filmed in surreal claymation and moving so fast your brain will explode trying to figure out what the heck is going on!
- The screwiest thing about this commercial is that all of that happens in a span of less than 10 seconds. Before you can even register the first few seconds, the commercial's over already.
- David Lynch has expanded his surreal directorial skills to encompass TV ads. Among the strangest are this cigarette ad (was apparently filmed backwards, involves two guys in Fifties attire using magic powers on a pile of fish), this teaser for Michael Jackson's "Dangerous" (some red desert landscape and a fiery geyser feature in it), and this ad for the PlayStation 2 (guy walks down a hall with a lot of weird and creepy stuff happening).
- This Filipino RC Cola commercial shows a boy revealed to have drinking glasses on his back, while her mother is revealed to have a bottle of RC Cola as a hidden head. What's more insane is that it is presented at first as a tear-jerking ad about the boy asking his mother about his real parentage.
- RC Cola Philippines does this again: a woman goes home after a birthday party of the son of her friend named Nenet, and when her husband asked the food she brought, she churns out from her small bag some meals, a wok of cooked stir-fried noodles, a pot of cooked rice, a full-size roasted pig, the confused son of the woman's friend Nenet, a clown, a singer impersonating legendary Filipino ballad singer Sharon Cuneta, and a bottle of RC Cola. The family then continued their party, and on the stinger, Nenet went out from the bag herself, asking the people on the table if they have seen her son Jun-Jun.
