That would be the famous or infamous Minginator.

The ad has been on TV for ages, I'm surprised you haven't seen it before.

Wasn't there a crappy low res quicktime video of that ad on the web site of the company that produced it?

I say crappy because the sound quality was pretty awful, of course the minginator is far from crappy, easily the most awesome AU I've ever seen.
