Even more adverts you despise

I am getting very annoyed by that inane woman who has just been set up with a smart home and starts prancing around in her socks. Is this an Irish ad? She sound English but the other guy sounds Irish.

I have to mute that ad.

The Colgate Total ad has a woman doing the voice over who says 'bacterior' instead of bacteria. Multiple times.

She’s English and the accent varies in the ad, there’s one bit where she’s dubbed with an Irish one.

Irish_peppa

those new supervalue adds i can only assume the director / marketing crowd said "something a bit cheesy tongue in cheek. Oh my god especially the part where these 3 people with towels on their heads are doing a dance with crackerbread wearing sunglasses indoors

It’s a virgin ad and it’s for the UK

OK that's where the confusion lies. Terrible ad anyway.

I know it's been mentioned before but 'scull shooz awwready' is back and just as annoying as ever.

The good thing about this thread is it makes me laugh about some ads, so they are slightly less annoying when I next see them.

Pretty much any advertisement on youtube.

They all seem to feature carbon copies of the same Mark Zuckerberg looking fúcker. 30 something white lads swanning around sleek 'googly' looking offices in grey t-shirts, telling you how great their app is or how to become a bazillionaire by reading a book per day.

They usually begin with statements like:

"I know what you're thinking, another silly get-rich-quick ad, but before you skip...."

There's one particularly smug looking English fella in some hip restaurant eating a salad and someone asks him how he became so successful , to which he responds "that's a really good question". What a cúnt!

Other culprits are Arkadium (whatever that is) and Wix.

You just know the lads featured are unmerciful prícks.

Well said. I can't press the Skip Ads button fast enough.

Trivago have a new staycation ad which for some reason I find really cheesy.

"Mam booked a hotel she found on Trivago. It was just a few hours away. It was the best time of my life, because I met <name of girl>"

the purple tin

Plantur shampoo. It's especially popular with women over forty...
I don't know why that pees me off so much but it does.

Say Your Number

That Lidl/Aldi one with the grandparents talking about their honeymoon is back, I don't hate it, in fact I love John looking at the camera with a 'Why are these pricks here?' expression on his face.

Some dodgy ads making some dodgy claims on youtube. Was one for an "industrictible" drone where the designer had been fired from his previous job for designing it and some dodgy ones pushing get rich quick trading and stock market ads.

the purple tin

The Purple Bricks one where the lady phones the man while he's in the bath and he is really angry about it. Why did you answer your phone you muppet. Turn it off if you want chill out time.

Them and Udemy. I get a TON of Udemy adverts. It wouldn't be so bad, except I've seen one or two artists call out Udemy 'instructors' for stealing/ tracing their work.

It's really noticable when you see the 'instructor' can't draw a circle or a straight line, so the disparity in styles is very noticable.

Generally dubbed toothpaste ads. You're meant to look at their mouths to see how [insert adjective] the toothpaste is. But you see the mouth is clearly not matching up to what you hear.

Which leads me nicely to one of my favourites - the hearing aid ad that was reduced volume throughout :pac:

I've come across this with Udemy too.

the purple tin

The Vanish infomercial with a smug muppet showing an audience of obvious ham actors how good vanish is. It is so cringeworthy, even David Brent would blush.

The Argos one where the family are super-happy after they fill their back garden full of useless tat. The eejit of a dad blasting his crap music out as well, wouldn't like to live beside them.


And the U Switch ad where the father takes up electric guitar. He is doing an Eddie Van Halen type solo despite never moving his hand at all. Good trick that :rolleyes:

It's dreadful! so misjudged.

The opening bars on this Ford ad,

:mad: :mad: :mad: Awahh, heyyyaa, awahh, heyyaa :mad: :mad: :mad:

cuts right into my head.

I do hope someone at 3s marketing department make a post watershed ad where everything is the same except for there being an absolutely horrific looking monster under the bed and the grandfather just makes his excuses and ends the call.

It would be comedy gold and get people talking.

If this thread is anything to go by, there's a market for a comedy sketch show involving recreating ads we all hate to make along with other scenarios horrible things happen to the people in them. Apres Match used to take the piss out of some annoying ads. Craig Doyle and happy smug beardy Bord Bia guy etc.

Permanent TSB with the ad for the jogger who has just spotted her perfect home. :rolleyes:
Unless money is no object to her, i wouldnt get her hopes up. Id imagine many others will have the same idea in this idyllic leafy suburb where demand > supply

Everytime that ad comes on, my dad points out that she says "i shouldn't have eaten so late" and then "I'd love a dog". He suggests she's hungry and wants grilled terrier.


Lidl ad: you can even make the "boop" sound for the craic!

No, i won't be making that sound.

Also, surely if it's scanning your QR code from the app, it'll make that sound itself?
