    Since people tend to despise adverts in general, surely this thread should be renamed 'Adverts You Acually Like'....to distinguish the few noteworthy ads out there.

    I think there is a thread like that, buried somewhere like 2 pages long. Few people like ads aired on Irish TV enough to post about them.

    ****ing **** stain meteor ad is back being just hilarious.

    I would never advocate violence but I would happily smash that stupid girls face, the one telling the brother what to say in Spanish. Grrr

    I'd happily do the same to the scrawny ginger chap.

    We're all in this psy-op together.🤨

    People like to complain. Few good ads. And I think there are about 5 attempts to have a thread about ads that are liked.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 725 ✭✭✭Varied


    I would think that people that like ads are the same over positive marketing twats that produce them.

    The Bird's Eye ads with the creepy polar bear.. seriously he's creepy :(

    That national lotto ad.

    What difference would the gold club being on fire been?

    plus considering he's blindfolded and dizzy then theres little chance of the guy gettin hit

    Have to disagree. I love those ads just because the bear is so creepy. He used to be much worse. They have made him less threatening in recent ads. Not sure it helps sell frozen food, but it's pure entertainment.

    Any ad where girls wake up and jump out of bed first thing in the morning with their make-up already on perfectly.

    That Heineken where urman is catching the trains around europe...

    Yeah, complete prick. Someone should nut him if he starts acting the hard man. That'd learn him.

    I love the Paddy Power Euro 2012 vuvuzela advert though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 191 ✭✭sweeney1971


    Maeve from Centra, I could scratch her face off and the little gimp who buys stuff from her to have a party. He needs hardening up and be more of a man, I am sick to death of that ad.

    logical thinking went out the window when they made that advert. :rolleyes:

    He's the guy we all hate after a few drinks. Not a great idea from Heineken


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Rasheed


    What about the American selling the 'No-No' hair removal thingy that's always on Tv3? She's is some dose to be watching when you are trying to eat your corn flakes


  • Registered Users Posts: 5 Aine21


    The ads encouraging you to pay your tv licence, particularly the interpretive dance one :-0


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 502 ✭✭✭BeerSteakBirds


    The KettleBell ''KettleworX'' advert that is on Tg4 right now. The pretend sincerity of the actresses and the stupid labored metaphors makes me understand why America is so violent. TV like this would seriously get on your nerves.

    well, yeah that part, but also the part, where he got from paris to russia without having his passport and why on earth did he stay on the train retelling a crap story about the last drop of Heineken? (i'm guessing that's the guy we don't like much) and why oh why did he leave his g/f behind and why oh why did he not just get off at the next stop to go back to his g/f :rolleyes: and seriously what waiter would take some one drink any way when there clearly not finished with it. :rolleyes:it was probably one of the first of many things that popped into my head when i saw this advert. :o

    In fairness it was an express train :D

    The So Maggie ad, even the product name. Amilia goes to work, "good work Amelia".

    He's the type that will turn into a serial killer at the first sign of hair loss!

    ANY phone company ad...... WHERE do they get the actors: Those accents, those slappable faces, those scripted attitudes. As soon as I see a phone company advert I automatically switch channels, surely defeating the point (although I suppose I'm helping them by posting these. ah well) Surely, as a group, phone company ads have an extremely high Wanna-punch-em-in-the-face factor. And the creators. Can they not see how annoying these ads are? The one with the fella on holidays talking to the English girl is the exception that proves the point as I do find that funny.

    I give you THESE mutants
