Tables groaning with Christmas food, as if the entire Christmas food shopping was put out for 1 meal.
I know they are advertising their wares, but they could do a meal at a time.
Cleaning products showing the filthiest sink on earth in an otherwise spotless kitchen .
Anti ageing Skin creams advertised by line free models under 30.
Precocious kids

People in adverts for any sort of vaccuum cleaner or floor cleaning solution always live in the most enormous houses, with acres and acres of floor that needs cleaning. No one lives in a house where you have to hoover round anything, or has a kitchen floor that's anything less than the size of an Olympic ice rink.
Same goes for adverts for bathroom fixtures and fittings, the bathrooms are always big enough to park a jumbo jet in.
• Sprogs
• Celebs insinuating their whiter than white teeth is down to a mere tube of whitening toothpaste and not infact down to £thousands worth of dentistry
Adverts where they have the stupid man/smart woman set up. If that was the other way round the feminists and Guardian types would be wailing.
EE is a German & French company

I'm all for pedantics
I should have said BRAND instead of company.
Is that the one that states you can use it 'IF' you decide to move on from breast milk? As if you might decide to keep breastfeeding until you die! That's what annoys me most in adverts!
For example my Brother saw a ad for Toot Toot the toys now on the ad it takes up a entire room with track and stuff and that is what he and others kids/people expect when in reality it's different sets connected together each little piece costs about £50 the one you see on TV you wouldn't get for less than £500 so then the kid on Christmas or whatever is expecting a huge set and maybe only gets one small piece about the size of a plate.
Just watched an ad for bedroom furniture.
The bedroom is ridiculously large.
I have no idea what you are talking about, what advert is that?
Just had to say...love this word and have not heard it for ages , thank you Espresso
It's bad enough we have to go through periods, apparently (in ad world) men don't suffer constipation/diarreah type problems.
Also why are insurance/pay day loan ads mostly moronic? Like it's a big laugh and a party until the bailiffs come knocking.
Smug people singing/talking about their compensation (especially from their own clumsiness) or PPI payments get on my nerves too ugh.
Also bank adverts, don't really need to explain this one tbh.

Stupid men being outwitted by clever strong women (and this is coming from a woman)
The perfect family having the perfect Christmas (It wouldn't look as good if it was more realistic would it?)
The idea that everybody works in an office
The fact that averts for some food/water for some African village always ended with a child looking into the camera for use as emotional blackmail.
The fact that supermarkets all claim to be the cheapest with the best value and that soap powders/washing up liquids all claim to be better than the other.
Totally!
And, obviously dubbed dialogue!
This post made me genuinely LOL
Aimed at those extremely strange mothers who still breasfeed their kids when they are at school
For me it's toothpaste adverts, particularly the ones where they go on about their latest version of their brand being the best one ever - so that means if you're only using Colgate Total or Colgate Original (or one of the many millions of Colgate toothpastes - other brands are available
Hey, here's our latest ultimate toothpaste - we know you regularly buy our X version, but really that's just crap and this one is the one we've been aiming to make all along. Stop buying our inferior models and purchase our new, improved now utterly perfect toothpaste for even more money - until our next newer and even more improved toothpaste and even more perfect comes along at an even greater price, h'obviously!
Skinny b!tches in the chocolate ads. You know they're never going to eat the chocolate. Or if they, do, it's not going to stay down for very long.
Adverts for women's products (sanitary products, clothes etc.) that just have a group of women doing nothing but laughing (at each other?) for no particular reason.
