    Totally cringe inducing, in the same vein as Guinness/IRFU "THIS IS OUR LAND" boll0x, appealing to national pride these days is not a good strategy, especially with sappy crap like this.

    I want to kill every single person in that McDonalds ad.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,425 ✭✭✭telekon


    The "Now 77" ad. Is that what the kidz are listening too these days??? Dear God.



    and no, I'm not as old as I sound.

    "I should still be in bed, mum, I'm not a morning person
    I've such a sleepy head, mum, I'm not a morning person
    This early I'm not great
    Even when we're running late!"


    GAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! D:<

    Bothar ad with the goat that asks "are we there yet? are we there yet?"
    Lordy but that's annoying.


  • Registered Users Posts: 121 ✭✭TemptationWaits


    Wait, wait, worst ad ever is "I want to do a poo at Paul's."

    Why? Just why? Surely there's adults working in advertisting for whatever toilet product they were selling, how come no-one stopped this horror before it got on our tellies?!

    I bet people called Paul hate that ad.

    I couldn't imagine the amount of bullying that little git Paul has received since he starred in that ad.

    Techically Paul was the lad who lived in the house with the nice smelling bathroom and was never seen in the ad. i.e the kid who needs the poo is not called Paul.



    I thought it important to point this out. ;)

    But this ad is never on tv lately. Dunno why it still comes up in chat on here. Haven't seen it in yonks


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,998 ✭✭✭Nerdkiller1991


    That Spin 103 ad...why?

    The Cost Plus Sofas one too. Were they trying to make that one funny or something?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 101 ✭✭Richard Noggin


    As I expected, I despise that new Meteor Christmas ad but it's not as repulsive as last year's one!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 708 ✭✭✭zimovain


    What I don't despise is the Hugo Boss ad being back on.OH Sienna I love you!!



  • Registered Users Posts: 23,641 ✭✭✭✭Elmo


    All nintendo ads.

    The first one with a bunch of celebs telling us how they enjoy Mario, who are they??? I thought at first it was ordinary people.



    Then there is the Jedward ad :eek: FFS :mad:



  • Registered Users Posts: 919 ✭✭✭RVD420


    The bloody Marks & Spencers christmas ads, with those smug idiots at it again. :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,835 ✭✭✭unreggd

    but it shows a guy and his girlfriend on the street, he kisses her then cocks his head back and smiles

    FXCKIN CRINGE CENTRAL

    Just seen the Kellogg's Christmas ad this year..
    This one:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aI74-YHQGY

    Not sure about Irish tv but they have overdubbed the voices with english kids on english tv. They have also changed the musical score around.
    Not sure why Kellogg's would change such a famous ad after so long


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,641 ✭✭✭✭Elmo


    McD's Christmas Drive Thur ad.

    It's is a really annoying ad but what really pisses me off is that they have changed the licence plates to Irish Licence plates. Okay, I know there are plenty of English people in Ireland, but come on! What a waste of time.

    Accent sells. Advertisers will try to have advertising with native accents in English. I am pretty sure Andi McDowell was over dubbed with an Irish accent for the first few years of her cosmetic advertising until they realized we knew who she was.

    That ad hasn't changed a bit since I was a child in either voices or music.

    This ad is a proper sickener: :mad:

    If someone came to my house and stuck their nose up at the way my walls were painted and then waved a feckin fancy leaflet in front of me I'd have no problem in telling them to get the fúck out of my house and take your feckin BER certificate and shove it up your arse! Fúckin snobs! :mad:

    We Irish love our ham, rashers & sausages.....


    truly IRISH, 100% IRISH, providing IRISH Jobs, guaranteed IRISH

    ...and rashers that taaaaaste greaaaaaaaaaat


    Now that I think about it, it makes me laugh out loud every time so maybe despise is too strong a word...fairly shi*e though

    And the never-ending hair replacement ad with a load of sports people talking about how young and sexually fulfilled they are now that they have hair. 'I certainly don't think I would have won best-looking z-lister of the year 1984 if I hadn't had someone else's hair grafted onto my bonce'

    and the posh Da Goat 'To faaaahtilize the soil with our manuah'


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,641 ✭✭✭✭Elmo




    See the licence plates for this **** ad. I don't know which is more annoying the licence plates or the worst ad ever created. This wins out, for all of the ads mentioned on this thread IMO.
