The ad with the cow running in slow motion on the beach is very annoying.

The PC brigade will be very happy with all the close ups of mixed race couples.

:rolleyes: What about the anti-PC brigade. Do they just comment on how happy the PC brigade are? I understand that there is over the top PC, but then I also realise that there is over the top anti-PC brigadists. Can we all not just get along? Think of the Children

I hate those Dolmio ads, with those thick puppets, one effing stereotype after the other and evry ad for italy has that bloody mandolin music. FFS.
and to add insult to injury Dolmio is made in holland!!

Plus I hate any ad that has kids in it, ESPECIALLY when they do the little adult thing; there was a car one a while ago with a chubby kid. And kids on the radio ads too. Kids should be kids not instruments of torture. Well, within reason.

Oh, I actually really like the Lotto ad with the bridge and the rainbow. Makes Dublin look awesome!!!

Kojak · 26-03-2011 5:12pm

I mentioned this on the radio forum as well, but that 1890 22 22 22 ad with Pat Shortt on it annoys the hell out of me. :mad:

I hate that new Mikado ad, ugh

Shawshank11 · 27-03-2011 3:28pm

That add for KFC chicken with your man pretending he loves working there, what a d***head!

Kojak · 28-03-2011 2:39am

There is a new ad on the television now that wrecks my head. Its an ad for Cadbury's where 2 lads are sitting on chairs wearing American Football helmets. It starts with one of them roaring like a lunatic and a display then pops up in front of him and he has to type in a series of numbers.

The ad with the babies on roller-skates.

I don't know why but it freaks the sh!t out of me.

Really!

A lot of people have mentioned that it freaks them out.I think it's their resesemblance to the dead baby in Trainspotting.

I wouldn't say I despise it but that envirofone ad is a bit stupid. The couple in it seem way too happy for themselves !

Yeah, and they're a bit too 'trendy', smart car and all. I'd say they've a phone about 4 days before they decide it's time for an upgrade because it's getting a bit old!

Those are the exact two that REALLY piss me off at the moment... arggggghhhhhhhh

TBH the Ikea ad has to be the most annoying ad. I think it wins hands down, I don't think there is a more annoying ad. At least since this thread started (03/06/07). I think it should be crowned the worst ad ever, the most annoying ad and should come with the warning this ad will make you despise the flat pack you have just bought even more.

The fast motion clip at the end of those ads with the sad notes remind me of ads from the 1980s.

My advice to help you pay for my expensive fees buy pet insurance, I will only charge you half and get the other 150% from your pet insurance company, Chic Ching!
