I have made a few people unhappy by pointing out something strange in radio and TV ads, since they now notice it too. 
A few weeks ago I noticed strange sounds, like those big car speakers that rattle the whole neighborhood. When I muted the TV, it stopped- that's when I realized the rythmic thumping was coming from a commercial. It's burried just behind the background music, and is MOST annoying!
Some of the commercials have a background noise like a bell chimming; some have steady 'thumping'; some sound like a car door shutting. I have no idea why these sounds have been added to commercials, as it certainly isn't drawing my attention in a possitive way! If it's designed to make us want to buy the product, it's having the opposite effect on me......so what else is this subliminal message doing to us, I wonder?
The' laywer/lawsuit/call now' commercials are the most obvious.
What do my fellow Hernandoid's think?
