    That Guinness ad for Arthurs day annoys the fck out of me, and we have to put up with it for about 7 more weeks. It is on practically every ad break. AAAAAAAGGGGHHHH.

    All O2 ads. They go on forever and are so annoying. Especially the ones they play in the cinema. Speaking of which, Limerick Omniplex, for the love of god please get some new ads.

    I've seen this ad a few times and I've seen the billboards around town but I don't know what's being advertised here. Mission Red? I don't know what that is.

    Not sure about Fair City but he was Des Brennan in Glenroe. Terrible ad. Who is your one with him? Fairly sure I've seen her somewhere before.

    Ads that are really getting on my nerves now are the Avonmore ads before and after the weather on RTE now. Appalling stuff.

    Definitely the ad for "let us do you out of your gold jewellery please" and also that auld biddy that says she was at woodstock for Barrys tea - their worst ad ever and my current no 1 bad ad are all the Churchill ones. Time for that mutt to go to sleep at the vets. Ooooh YES! And he can take that bloody Melanie Sykes with him. Woof.;)

    Oh and another one... Gaviscon..... those firemen spraying the back of your wan's throat with white stuff. Mucky!:D

    Yeah, the woodstock ad is Maxwell House. In the follow up ad, The she tells the granddaughter that her mother was the love child of that same woodstock concert, and her grandfather was some bloke in a Nixon mask.

    The worst thing about it is he's basically admitting right there in the ad that they take last years model, stick some overpriced extras on it and bump up the price to that of a new release so vapid cnuts like herself who dont know anything about cars will still fork out for it.

    See! Dreadful advert! I didn't even get the product right. So it's neither informative nor entertaining. P45 for that ad-man. It seems to me like the kind of advert that some exec within Maxwell House came up with and they insisted to the ad agency that Maxwell House were gonna use their own "brilliant" concept. And hiring the sh!te talent. I mean, in my lifetime I've seen Nick Kamen get his kit off in a launderette for Levis, Budweiser with Wazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup, Tango adverts (all of them!), and the corny but catchy Nescafe Gold Blend adverts from the 80s and 90s as well as that brilliant advert for a shamefully rubbish car, the Transformer advert for the Citroen C4. Advertising has moved on from pensioners on couches talking patronisingly to their grandchildren (please note people from Werthers Originals).

    On the bad ad rant.... those cheeky little b!tches who think "it's time" for daddy to start dyeing his hair with Just for Men or some such. Cheeky talentless children get up my nose. But thankfully not as much as the lovely people from Caneston duo who want to get me back to "feeling myself again"!! Surely thats not recommended when one has thrush is it?!

    How about the one for Stenna Line where the young kid is shouting on about the boat being amazing and he got to meet 'bi-curious George' ;-) Desperate stuff.

    Edit: Maybe it was 'furious George' ;-)

    That ad with the kid who "wants to do a poo at Pauls". Off ya go ya little twat, and dont come back!! Pack your bags and go stink out Pauls house, I'm sure his mother will love you for it. If he was mine, I'd stick his head down the toilet and rub his face in it. AAAAARGH!!!!!
    Those hair colour ads with Davina MaColl, just want to reach in and punch her every time. Instead i just content myself by telling her to F**K OFF every time. not as satisfying as landing her one though I imagine.......

    Oh yes, hated that for ages.

    In a similar vein, the pink West Coast Cooler ad with those friggin mongs getting ready for their night out, literally grind my teeth when I see it.

    I still cant believe they're still using that poo at Pauls hose ad at this stage though, how could they miss the hatred it generates?

    http://www.google.ie/search?q=poo+at+pauls&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a

    Its unbelieveable that they're still paying money to show it as much as they do.
