Adverts you despise

Deep Easterly

That Flora Pro-Active ad where they are all waiting to get their results (results of what I don't know), and then are really shocked/pleased when they get them.

I challenge anyone to find an ad on TV currently that is even more stupid and annoying than that one!

NOooooooooooooooooo!!!:p

Too much gum... not a good tooth to gum ratio.

Kipperhell

The Shredded Wheat ad where the woman all tell their view on the product. It is such a formulaic way of doing an ad but this one really irritates me. It is obviously a bunch of actors given the same script and asked to do their performance of it.

That other ad that get me is the one where the mother throws a tantrum to stop her kid.

Mark Hamill

That actimel ad with the irish broadcaster (cloana something, maybe? cant remember) telling us how healthy actimel is. This is even more annoying because the ad (or the english equivilent) was banned by the ASA for not being able to scientifically back up its claims. (In fact,recently, Efsa rejected 180 claims made by the various probiotic drinks that they where healthy: 10 because of lack of evidence, 170 because the ingredient in question could not be identified).
Ads where they are clearly lying to people to scare monger them into buying products are one of the most irritating things in the world

While we can't complain officially about "poo at paul's" we can with this ad so go do it: -

BAI or the former BCC broadcasting complaint commission should be contacted and/or the IASI.

Thanks, I'm filling out a form now, but I will have to figure out what station I saw the offending ad on though, hopefully I'll email it tomorrow.

that yoghurt that "improves digestive transit" ..... what a lovely way to say it makes you ****e!:D

The Yorkie ad with the ref and the girl soccer player is really starting to annoy me


Girl getting booked ...

Ref: "Name please .."

Girl: "I've already got a boy-friend" and walks off


The above exchange makes no sense to me. Maybe it was originally written with him asking for her (shirt) number but if so, why did they change it ??

The cereal ad with the little singing fcuker in the cubard.Not funny,surreal for the sake of it.

yeah that bloke in the cupboard, what has that to do with breakfast cereal, he looks like the kinda bloke you warn your kids about !
The one i hate most at the mo is the new one from LOW LOW, for cheese.
it consists of a white rat/mouse running over the cheese in traps and then nibbling at he bag at the end............if ever i wanted to consume cheese it's after watching a rat crawling all over it. who are the genuises who come up with these concepts..........and how do i get that job.

The Yorkie Ads, and the Rice Krispie ads with the stupid little girl saying "Is it reeeeeal?"

Nails on a chalkboard.

lord lucan

The new Weetabix ad with the horse and jockey is brutal!:rolleyes:

Thargor

Them Rice Crispy ads are dire alright, feed their imagination etc, 4uck off.

I have to look away now when that windowlicking bitch on the Avanmore ad comes on before and after the weather, its unbearable.

Namlub

That karaoke game ad with I Get Around in it, purely because the peoples' singing offends my ears.

Deep Easterly

The RTE ad with the guy with a telly for a head and claiming that he does not "know where my head is these days".

Please RTE, no more!

Elmo

".....were just passing through...."

:mad:

Thargor

Oh god yeah how'd I forget that

They are some of the most repulsive ads Ive ever seen, so glad I only eat in Supermacs.

They're trying to appeal to the kids yo, don't hate.

darkdubh

There's a whole series of annoying vodaphone ads out at the moment ,like that smug get going on about a white Christmass.And the guy with the big nose hooking up with other big nosers.At the end of it he looks like he's going to perform some nonconsentual ramrodding on "button nosed Ben".

Thargor

Oh yeah I hate those ads, the way he says, "hey babe, c'mere" in a really smug voice at the end aswell, very annoying.

I see Avanmore have replaced that mong at long last, Im guessing the freckly little kid is going to be just as annoying before too long though.

Not sure if it's been mentioned already but the Burger King ad annoys me. It's the one with a bloke with a thick bog accent selling "recession buster" burgers.

there is an ad out at moment for selling sofas - don't know company name. In the middle of showing their fab sofas they have this girl in short skirt doing a little dance and twirl - i'm not sure if they are taking the mickey or what but it looks daft.
