    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    Nope. I sit at home all day watching TV and those 3 ads are just on repeat. Including the two that aren't even aired anymore... That everyone else knew...

    Being a dick fail.

    I'm surprised that no-one has yet mentioned those Vauxhall ads with the creepy puppets


    They're not funny or "cool"; just weird and unsettling (are Vauxhall endorsing human/puppet intercourse??)

    Apologies if it's already been mentioned (too lazy to trawl through the whole thread!), but that little kid's voice saying "zoom zoom" in the Mazda ads. Give me a baseball bat and 10 minutes alone with the marketing 'guru' who thought up that idea!

    Has been mentioned already, but the Glade ad with the women looking at yer ones rock collection :mad: Who the hell leaves rocks sitting on their sideboard. And how blind to you have to be to mistake a big lump of grey plastic for a rock?

    Also the other Glade one where the woman forgets she has people coming round in 10 mins, but everything is ok, cos she has a Glade candle to light. Cut to her guests arriving and she has a load of food out. Did the candle make the fupping food for her??? (Cos that I would buy :pac:)

    All air freshener ads are incredibley annoying and crap. Poo in Pauls house being the prime example.

    Still, cheeky volvic guy is gonna take some beating. This and the Go Compare ads are the two that I juts HAVE to turn away from.

    the citroen "ANTI-RETRO" ad with footage of John Lennon in it, with a really unconvincing fake voiceover, talking about being original. then they show the car and its a wholly unoriginal boring car.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ph4rZU0Ns4

    and another beatles related one thats always on sky news - the budweiser one with the disgustingly twee chirpy cover of 'altogether now'. it drives me mad.

    the child on the chocolate cake ad. I don't know who makes it but the child is seriously on drugs or something. "Oh I'm hungry thinking about it already" in some sing-song slow creepy voice. :(:mad:
    And the other one with the stupid child trying to fit a tricycle into the dishwasher and the mother just standing there grinning stupidly at him.

    That b**** on the vanish ad, mrs if you come into my house like that without any warning the last thing i'd be worried about is stains on my son's tennis shirt.

    The Wayne Rooney vs Wayne Rooney powerade ad. It'd make you wish you were blind.

    Or the petis flous one, "kids will always be kids" well...no they wont. They'll grow up and stop bothering mums or whatever she says. That ad just bothers me!

    All of them already said Im sure.

    The tool from the Volvic ad.
    The tool from the Christmas Meteor ad.
    The tool from the Vodaphone white Christmas ad.
    Those tools from France who sell bad cars but make good rally cars and their latest ad campaign.
    Those Jedward tools just because they are absolute tools
    Cash for Gold toolette
    Wimax because the song is stupid and Im sure someone involved in that is a tool
    Anything to do with the tool on tool combo of jordan and peter andre
    That little bearded jackass in the Eircom add, feckin ugh\
    George hook and his sky plus adds, would he soak up that spit before he talks for damnations sake!
    My ex, shes an ad for . . right wrong thread. . .
