    There is one ad that I can honestly say makes me want to kick my TV in more than any other. :mad:

    I'm talking about that An Post ad that goes....

    "Joe is writing a novel and is wearing a shirt he got from a guy in new york who who buys sausages from his aunt in china, who wears cotton slippers she got in the post from Joe...........*half an hour later*...........and is about to be blown away by a best seller...." :mad:


    That ad, along with that horrible song just makes me puke! :mad:

    What song? I think that would be one of the better ads currently running on the TV, not that that is saying much.

    Speaking of An Post ads, theres one with some clown in a suit bigging up An Post. He comes off as a really smug Steve Coogan lookalike. The smugness in the voice too :mad::mad::mad:

    That ad for Colgate sensitive pro-relief (had to Google the exact product name...) with the fools sitting in the shopping centre, rubbing toothpaste on their teeth then being forced to drink ice-cold water.

    Wowwww, how does it work?!!!

    "It's the... Pro...ARGIN formula..." When he says that, it sounds like he's just made it up on the damn spot. Drives me insane

    I would have thought it was a British ad. Maybe it trying to reflect the multiculturism of Ireland by showing a White English Guy playing an American Game drinking French water. :rolleyes:

    You can really tell he doesn't play Baseball. He just doesn't get his character. Worst Acting ever.

    Cut Ed some slack guys, Sunday morning 5-a-side football nearly lost its ultimate talisman only for private health care...

    I can just picture Ed guffawing out loud to the Strawberry Alarm Clock, putting tomato sauce on his fry-up, telling all his mates how cool Razorlight's new album is, being a proud Godfather to his nephew Josh/Zach/Ben/Adam, or if it's a girl, then Abby/Molly/Chloe, using the word "begrudger" to describe anyone who criticises Bertie, refering to some 4-4-2 Premiership team as "us" in social conversation, and refering to La Liga/Serie A as "Two horse races" while never actually bothering to look at it when he can be looking at Stoke vs. Wolves instead.

    I haven't seen Barry Scott on an ad for nearly 2 years I'd say, so why do people keep bringing him up? :)
    He's on in the US now with a big ghost head of Billy Mays in the background. Creepy. lol

    Theres an ad on the radio at the moment that's just so so annoying....


    I think its an ad for Irish Life. Basically it involves this guy snoring loudly in the background and to make it worse they have this guy with an awful voiceover with a horrible whispery gravely voice!


    Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! Hate it! :mad::mad::mad:
