    Myleene Klass in her prodding advert, she looks like Kermit the Frog in that last shot where she smiles at the camera.

    Argos - "Planning ahead for this Christmas?" No because it's only OCTOBER so GO AWAY! :mad:

    this *typing through gritted teeth* and even worse the Parks advert that is asking us to get the 2013 catalogue :eek:

    Nothing, and I mean nothing, tops the "They say he is a legend" advert staring Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs, and Patrice Evra, that is constantly shown on MUTV!
    Now that is the defination of bad acting!!

    I haven't seen anyone mention it yet - that Victoria Plumb advert. "I shopped around for ins-PIRATION". So annoying!

    The Santander one where they're showing people how much they can save.

    The last women has an awful accent. I can't stand the way she pronounces pounds.
    I don't know how it would be spelled. Poiiinds (she doesn't sound Irish though).

    I hate the pounds to pocket rip off loan merchants one! I also hate the way the guy says bank account in it.

    TalkTalk - "Customers can come home to a free Youview box." Small print says "£50 engineer installation fee applies." DON'T SAY FREE YOU COMPLETE LIARS! :mad:
    How has the ASA not banned this?

    Clearly the box is free but an installation cost applies therefore it is not misleading.

    The saucy fish company advert annoys me. I have never spent 30 minutes deciding which fish to have (it would be the same length of time if I was choosing a "saucy fish"), I've never spent an hour preparing the fish (that's what the fishmonger is for) and I've never spent 30 minutes making the sauce!

    I can appreciate it will be quicker, but don't make out that we're all stupid!

    I hate those ads for stupid, processed foods trying to make life easier. Trying to stop people from cooking properly, having good hearty meals as a family.
    Same goes for microwave rice (remember the ad with the tosspot speaking to the microwave?)

    The only people i can imagine buying it are a young couple in their modern apartment, you know, the "ideal" people that advertisers think that the whole of the uk is. They are always on Twitbook and Facer, (or whatever that larks called) and the guy always has some form of facial hair! Both of them would be younger than 30. Why? Why do they always go by that for 60& of adverts on tv?
    If they have kids, they are super annoying, and like to make a mess of cake batter or think that "Dirt is Good" (cringe).

    Also HATE adverts with WHISTLING AND/OR GUITAR MUSIC as the background music. It's so common and annoying. Even worse when coupled with Stopmotion animation. Makes my blood boil. Again, many of those ads with such music will star those aforementioned "ideal" people.

    That reminds me, why are children always depicted as snotty obnoxious little t**ts in adverts? Is there some kind of anti-youth agenda amongst advertisers?

    Ad men love to show children as overly confident and in most cases superior to their parents, I assume they think it's cute. This is pushed to ridiculous lengths on adverts like Oreos, with the little girl dominating the conversation with her father.

    The Fisher Price adverts with the little babies playing and that twee
    'you are exactly one of a kind' song!
    An advert break was on just now and I saw this advert a grand total of four times.
    The advert came on, ended. I relaxed.. only for it to play again! And then after another thirty seconds of adverts, it plays YET AGAIN.

    Grrrr.

    Trypophobia. I have it too. That Sanex advert makes me come over all shivery, and not in a good way.

    ETA: If you suffer from trypophobia, DON'T GOOGLE IT (the phobia, not the Sanex ad). The first page of results includes some vomit-inducing images.

    Me too - you're definitely not alone. Sanex / Costa type ads used to make me feel rough for hours, also irrationally angry at them for some reason.

    And I second the advice about not looking for more information on the internet, pictures of lotus seed pods etc. appear unnannounced.
