My newest most hated commercial is the Geico Casper ghost one. It’s the voice behind the ghost that makes me want to become violent. How come nobody else mentioned this yet?

I find the ghost's voice extemely annoying. I assumed it was the high pitch. Hasn't made me violent.

We made an entire page for Geico now since all they do is make dumb-ass commercials that we're forced to watch unless we have adblock!...

Is it possible to kill a ghost? Because those homeowners need to kill Casper.

"Friendly" my ass, he's beyond annoying.

Sorry folks, but I don't find these ads particularly annoying.

Maybe it's partly because I love me some Halloween... 🎃 

Or maybe it's because they're at least trying to be funny, rather than trying to appeal to douchebags who think they're cool, by using actors who act like douchebags who think they're cool.

I dunno.

They just don't really annoy me that much.

I am trying to adopt the attitude that it could always be worse. At least GEICO and Progressive hasn't come up with a crappy jingle like Liberty Mutual.

A great cartoon creepypasta/conspiracy....

Casper is Richie Rich! Richie probably died when young...

Poor Casper.  Just a dead little 6 y/o boy.  I used to wonder what he died of, but then this commercial came out, and we discover he suffocated after jumping into an old refrigerator.
