    I was watching a Come Dine With Me marathon on Monday while doing some work, and the ad breaks there were driving me nuts. It got to a stage where I was hitting the mute button during every break.

    If I saw that Go Compare guy in the street, I'd kick him so hard he'd be singing in falsetto for a week.

    Suffering another bout of insomnia here so thought I'd share my hatred of that ad on Living TV for Trabolgan - the one saying Jedward etc will be performing - voiced by that guy with the really condescending English accent that does lots of Living's ads for their crap TV programmes. :mad:

    Its that god awful Muller ad for me with the jingle :eek:

    VHI ad with the blandest, most annoying voiceovers in the world.

    Any ads with children singing and mammies ... not everyone who shops for food or household products is a mammie with a herd of kiddies ... single people need to eat too.

    The singing LG man.

    Go Compare :mad:

    As much as i hate that ad it's jingle is strangely infectious and sticks in your head. Good marketing imo.

    Also in a state of insomnia, I found myself in front of the telly last Saturday morning at around 5.30am and there was this Home Shopping thing on RTE. It was some dolly asking an unfortunate chap from Peats about an e-reader. She was excrrrrruciating! Every sentence started with " So Oran....."

    Had I been a little more with it I probably would have kicked the TV in. :mad:

    Any nintendo ads - but in particular all DS ones. Woefully cheesy and brady bunch-esque.

    Supersavvime.com for women who want to become savvier.
    A lot of whats wrong with this country in that statement, is savier a word?
