    Those bleedin' Argos Aliens are well past their sell by date...really makes you wonder what sort of advertising team thinks they are funny and entertaining.

    Here here, totallu unoriginal and unfunny, as bad as the Woolworths dogs they had a few years ago.

    And dont get me started on the Toys R Us advert where they have yanked up the song!

    the current perl du lait advert and the way the woman laughs at the end, then pretends to be embarrassed by covering her mouth. ggrrr nearly as punchable as the " i could do with a snack m&m woman"

    The woman in an advert about not wasting food. It's a Scottish thing I think. She just annoys me so much!

    Special food for neutered animals...Wot! do we get same for partners with vasectomies or tied tubes next. or how about something tasty for the gal with a hystericalectomy....?

    The first thing the vets tell you after you get your animal done is that you'll need to change their diet. You really haven't heard of hormonal changes causing weight gain? :confused:

    The Co Operative Food xmas adverts with the song that is meant to rhyme, or at least I get the impression that it's meant to rhyme..

    'when you're having a bit of a do, or only the best will do...'

    Argh, really annoys me :mad:

    What song is it?

    I saw the CIN advert before and I think the singer is Emiliana Torrini, I don't recognise the track though.

    Try a bit of humour..will you? :rolleyes:

    But then when we kept pets back in history(scraps from fishmongers and butchers) , we didn't have the pet food industry flogging their goods.

    STOP with the Halloween BT ad ... surely it's about time you bombard us with whatever is the Christmas version of this gawd-awful soap opera about students who seemingly can afford BT's inflated BB prices.

    You know I woud never go on a forum as you have and bring someone down like this. To tell someone they don't inderstand hormonal changes when it it something that everyone but the less than capable would. Why don't you come out with it call someone stupid?:mad:
    My point was to make a joke about the absurdity of the pet food industry which has us focussing more on the needs of animals than humans. Ok so I was stupid enough not to make that clear enough for you or maybe you dont think this is another industry that is ripping folks off and advertsers taking the p&&&. Yes we do have supplements and advice for the menopause but do we yet have ready meals for gents with "the snip"...oooer mine's still as skinny as he ever was..

    Tell me about it. I mentioned this a few days ago and they STILL show it at least once every damn night during I'm a Celeb. How many Halloween parties do you want!?

    Also must mention that old geezer and his boilers. "you may remember about a year ago I was talking about my boilers" - It's been a year? Feels like days... Now quit blabbering on about wanting to replace my boiler already. Wasn't interested "a year" ago, and I aint now.

    Getting incredibly sick with all the Christmas themed adverts too. T'is the season to hack me off it seems. Not even December yet! I don't care for Myleene Class and her M&S (whoops, sorry, it's Littlewoods now, right?) trash. Nor do I care which supermarket is handing out vouchers when you spend £1,000 or for 2p off your petrol. Does anybody *actually* shop around? Even if I had a car, I'd not faff about going further to a supermarket because their bread is 2p cheaper. I'd continue using whichever is closer to me.

    It must have been mentioned before but easily the worst by a long way at the moment is the breakfast biscuit advert on the train with the bloke chasing passengers with a biscuit.........excrutiatingy unamusing in every single way:mad:

    The Ryvita ones

    The double meaning - fancy some and ladies who crunch
    I hate cheesy slogans

    So cringey and they have become so expensive :(

    I think she is from that Superscrimpers programme that is total rubbish :mad::mad::mad:

    And I bet that food is twice the price of normal animal food.

    Anything to rip off Joe public :mad:

    The EBay advert is irritating as hell, for starters the bint with the 80 a day addictions voice is like nails on a blackboard.

    And sad to say but I like the John Lewis ad and the twee singer.

    At least this way it won't be quite so annoying when they're still playing whatever their Christmas ad turns out to be deep into next April

    All the Shitmas adverts - people in their homes having a shit Christmas.

    All the mums seem to be having an especially shit time and in one advert some fat bloke has the nerve to say "What's for tea love" to his wife on Xmas night.

    ****ing turkey you lazy bastard

    Su Bo has a good voice but "worlds greatest" is way OTT, I've heard her sing I Know Him So Well (with Elaine Page), O Holy Night etc, and her timing is shot and all over the place :confused: She's not singing at the same speed as the music and her phrasing on those songs is pants.

    Yeah, hate that ad where the mum has been run ragged catering for everyone and doing all the Christmas preparation and she looks like she is about to collapse when the voice over chimes in with "And you wouldn't have it any other way".
    Bollox.
