    I can't stand the mother in that Kerrygold ad - "he'll be born in Germany but his feet will touch Irish soil first". Can't bear it - it makes me feel sick.

    That Eurospar ad with the old twonk asking for the cup of coffee with his sandwich.

    Ignoring the fact that the Spar guy basically gave said old twonk his lunch (:confused:), the senile old git demands the coffee "like the one on the poster"

    AAAAAAARGH!!

    It's just one of those ads where there is not one person in it you can tolerate :mad:

    That ghey Holland And Barrett lad telling all the hardy rugby lads that their drugs are cheaper .... I'd say he's more likely to be dropping the soap in the shower more so than dropping a rugby ball on the pitch.

    If the mother's idea of 'best stuff' is having a son who eats his dinner like retarded and starved pig and carries boxes of bog with him everywhere then good for her! :p

    I don't have the option of thanking you 15 times on the ole thank button, but thanks for highlighting just how ****e this ad is. I hate it and get the urge to smash things everytime it comes on. :mad:

    Hate the ad for dulcoeaze (thinks that's the name of the product anyway!) A product for dealing with irritable bowel or some rubbish like that where they have four yokes sitting having lunch together and they disuss the product and how it softens their stools when constipated, as you would do when having food like! The women are meant to resemble the Sex in the City girls. It's all so cringey!

    Kellog's "I'm not a morning person" - lets get a bunch of kids who can't sing on an ad because that is cute, what child isn't a morning person?

    Bring back Coco the Monkey.

    I hate ads that advertise in Ireland and show website URL's with .co.uk web addresses.

    I'm not a raving republican but I think it is lazy of companies who do business here not to bother with a .ie address or just use a .com.

    Lots of companies advertise this, film studios advertise loads of films here as filmname.co.uk and at the moment I see Canon running ads on RTE for a new camera with a UK address. I find it disrespectful to the market here and lazy research and understanding.

    Sorry for ranting but I wonder if this bothers anybody else.

    Cringeworthy and his tone of voice and general demeanour makes me want to grab my sky box and throw it through the tv screen.

    "My name is Ed...blah blah" the gimp with the banjaxed knee in the latest VHI ad. Pre season training my hoop, he looks like he couldn't kick his way out of a paper bag. VHI ads suck.

    Lucozade Sport ad with the sports guru from University of Ulster - with his grating Belfast accent. Utter bunkum. Go and drink a bottle of tap water for free.

    The ad for Grey's Anatomy "NO freakin' way" ..... I hope the shooter works his way through all the doctors, starting with that pr1ck Patrick Dempsey, and doesnt stop until he's cleared out the writers / producers / everybody involved with this rubbish show.
