Even more adverts you despise

The 3 ad with the teenager showing the baby brother his reflection in the Snapchat "puking a rainbow"....just irritating...

The current Permanent TSB ad with the idyllic couple and subsequent family. She looks like she is going to jump his bones in the bank when they get mortgage approval. The father seems to shoot home movies of the family on a grainy 60's 8 mm camera instead of a smartphone too, taking hipsterdom to a new extreme.

Another stupid bank ad(can't remember which one)-Julie and Cian sacrificing Saturday morning lie -ins for that tapped wall thing ....the most unlikely looking couple ever..poor casting...and worse ad

When the reality is if they are buying a house together, the days of wearing the face off each other on Saturday mornings is long gone.

The Volvo ad for the xc60, it's great that the car has all those safety features but who lets a child walk to school or wherever at that age on their own. Shouldn't they also show the safe cross code. I'm surprised it's still being shown.

"Dreamy Leamy" and "the full on goslings", someone got paid for that work of genius.

Is it booking.com which goes "If you have to cancel, cancel! Most of the time its free!".

I booked with them last December. The hotel rang me 3 weeks before the booking asking me to confirm the booking. At that point, my trip was going ahead so they said "OK we will go ahead and charge for your booking". A week later, my trip was cancelled and I went to get my money back. They said I can't get my money back because I had confirmed the booking and paid.

So, just a warning. Most of the time its free, means some of the times its not free.

The Aldi appropriation of the theme tune to "The Addams Family" is ear grating, dunno who its aimed at as I'd imagine vast majority of kids today would be unfamiliar with the show/films/cartoon etc.

I much prefer the football version.

Parents. You heard it and you looked up and you were informed Aldi has a ton of cheap Halloween stuff for kids. Even if you were irritated, you were informed. If you're old enough to know the tune, you can't help tuning into it the minute you hear it.

It's the same as that god-awful Toddlebox ad that has returned to our screens recently. You can't ignore it, even if you want to. (Though that one is less effective; it was ages before I figure out what the hell it was advertising.)

Sky ad with some dope talking about how much he loves eating crisps while watching the telly. 'Mmmmmmm I love my crisps', he sounds like some sort of crisp perv who jacks off as he polishes off his packet. Eewww.

Such cringey bullsh1t and cynical carry on too. There seems to be this flurry of silly so called 'heartstring pulling' ads copying John Lewis in recent years

Before I clicked that, I KNEW what it was.
And I came here to complain about it too.
It is unbelievably CRINGEY.

The ad for Kinder Surprise is doing my head in at the mo.
"Have you been the surface of the moon lately?"
Sorry, what?
Do you mean "Have you been ON the surface of the moon?"
Why did you miss out that word!?
URGH.

Once again Guinness latch on to something that has nothing to do with them, don't think I'll ever figure out what connection they have to a couple of black lads going around on horses in South Central LA.

Guinness tend to use black and white (or ebony and ivory if you prefer) in all of their ads. Sort of subliminally in a way. Without sounding racist perhaps that is why they use black actors in some of their ads? Notice also the irish christmas ad with the night sky contrasting with the snow.

Gazza once told Paul Ince around 1997 he looked like a 'Pint of guinness' when he had a bandage covering a head wound... If it was today there would be uproar so Diageo might want to hold off on that one

BARRY SCOTT IS BACK AND HE'S NOW EVEN CREEPIER (If that's possible... that weird, empty grin at the end...nightmare fuel).

Why the rusty toolbox? Why? And no, that's not a euphemism.

They didn't even come up with the idea themselves, it ripped off another ad with black inner city fellas on horseback for some US mobile company.

OK, this is going to sound like a conspiracy theory not just because I'm wearing a tinfoil hat, but these Energia hamsters. I've profiled too many sadistic advertising companies to know where they're going with these...

It won't be long now until they're offering wee teddies of the hamsters when you switch. Feckin' hate these selling methods.

And yeah, the ads are sh*te too. :pac:

my3cents

Whenever you mention hamsters I always think of this fake (student contribution to a competition I believe) ad...

Edit> Beware it might be a bit loud.

I love how the cops in the squad car just lets our bare chested protagonist and his horse on their merry way when recent history tells us a very different outcome would be far more likely.

Ha, I came in to complain about this ad too and i just knew it would be already lambasted here. Its horrendous. Yer man must be an awful insufferable ejit to hire an ancient roman amphitheatre to deliver his bull****e. I would have thrown the hot scolding brew onto his annoying face. Everyones sitting down because you're a needy bellend. End of.
