    Not to drag the thread back but just seen the Bank of Ireland one. Sickening, tone deaf crock of sh1t from a soon to be defunct, amoral shower of ba5tards. Wins the thread maybe. And that is a low, low bar.

    Kevin Bacon sounds positively done with this bullsh!t in the latest EE ad where the outtakes feature several freshly-decapitated corpses chucked over the mountain top.

    It is what it's.

    I know. I posted about it earlier, it's completely ridiculous I thought it was for NatWest when I saw it first.

    I really can’t stand the Verisure alarm adds in UK

    Picture the scene John is exiting his house as his neighbour is entering his

    “hello John I see you have a Verisure alarm”

    “ Yes I feel a lot safer when I’m away the kids are protected“

    “ Yes I was thinking I should get one myself“

    “ You should“

    “ You’re right I’ll do it now“

    And the funny thing is I can’t get this bloody add out of my head so it just goes to show treat the audience like uncomprehending morons actually works.... And if I wanted an alarm, guess what??, I will check their website 🀣

    It's like you man with the binoculars on the senior insurance Ad, it's so bad it works:)

    If any words in an ad would turn me off watching a tv show those words are Lucy Kennedy.

    Other words that get the same reaction are .

    Celebrity Grrrrr :mad:
    Reality
    Talent
    Star
    Goggle
    Box
    Influencer
    Cooking
    Dancing
    Tubridy
    D'Arcy
    OcConnor ( Singer , Nun , Priest , Muslim , poet , retired , comeback , etc etc )
    :D

    Hellmans turning nothing into something. I think the trick is that you rub it in your eyes and then you can see the really nice sandwich, the hefty pasta and the nice looking chicken salad that the people in the ad apparently couldn't see.

    I'd love a Chinese so I'm going to pour some soy sauce in my eye and see if I can spot some noodles.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,997 ✭✭✭Shapey Fiend


    This is slightly off topic but irritating in a similar way. I love shopping in TK Maxx but the instore voiceover guy with the wacky safety instructions blaring out every 3 or 4 minutes make me want to throttle somebody.

    Also the adverts for Sile Seoiges new podcast really underline what an awful accent she has.

    The guy screaming at some crisps with the exaggerated Dublin accent. Not funny.


  • Registered Users Posts: 953 ✭✭✭Tim76


    Steven Gerrard and that Boyle sports betting advert. It sounds like his family is being held hostage by Mr. Boyle and he has been forced into doing the ad.

    That ad is just plain WEIRD

    Can we have some youtube links particularly for any ads on Irish TV. I don't watch Irish TV and I'm worried I might be missing something :D (I only have satellite.)

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    There ya go.

    Fairly high chance that a lot of his spit is landing on the crisps too, the dirty fecker.




  • Registered Users Posts: 6,624 ✭✭✭The Continental Op


    Thanks.

    Shouldn't he be wearing a mask?

    Maybe people want someone breathing all over their crisps?

    Yes dreadful ad I can add to my ever increasing list of adverts I despise.

    Wake me up when it's all over.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,997 ✭✭✭Shapey Fiend


    Some of Darren Conway's stuff is very funny but it doesn't really translate well to adverts.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭madmaggie


    The yodelling Domino's pizza ad. What clown dreamt that up.


  • Registered Users Posts: 953 ✭✭✭Tim76


    Some of Darren Conway's stuff is very funny but it doesn't really translate well to adverts.

    His online sketches are brilliant to be fair. The ad even gets a mention in one of his newer ones "Yellow Reg" - check it out if interested. But yeah, difficult to see his style of humour crossing over to the mainstream.

    I've only just realised the strawberry in that Lidl talking food ad says "quare"; I haven't heard that since growing up in Wexford! Nice touch but the ad needs to go die in a fire.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,019 ✭✭✭jojofizzio


    The new BOI home improvement loan ad….are we to take it they didn’t get the funds to do up the mother’s living room??
    Or they didn’t bother and spent the money on something else??
    Answers on a postcard please….

    RTE seem to have pretty sharpish dropped the bizarre disjointed ads where regular people appear to be having conversations with their current affairs presenters.

    I get that in Aldi. "Every day Irish, every day amazing" Just fcvk off already! And it's like they've the volume turned up to the max in my shop too. Grrrr.

    Youtube ads. These days I'm sick of constantly seeing ads for Audible audiobooks. Before that it was probably f***ing Grammarly.

    Thankfully I dont watch much tv these days so I'm not bombarded with that shyte.
    Ad is as funny as a cancer diagnosis.

    The Three ad, with the father and son. I have to mute it.

    It starts with 'Liam, I'm on the move...'. That's all I know. And it's on every ad break. :rolleyes:
