Yet another ad that makes the man look like a moron. I'd like to see my husband's face if I demanded he take me back to a shop to change a bit of fruit, never mind the language!

Loathe all bank ads on principle but in particular the Lloyds one with the black horse galloping through A&E for reasons best known to the ad agency. It's trying to make out that it gives a damn about its customers when really none of them could care less and are just money grubbers.

That stupid Avon advert with that idiotic Essex bimbo "I share sah many selfies"
Those Muller ads with Nicole "shirt-slinger" with her getting a tiny bit of yogurt on the end of her snout. The Jacamo ad really grinds my gears And the Littlewoods ads with My-lean Arse. I cannot stand that smug faced bint no wonder her husband cleared off. |

Postcode lottery adverts are beyond cringe worthy and awkward. You'd think they'd have the money to make a half decent advert.
Don't get me started on the adverts with that GMTV (or whatever it's called now) reject Fiona Phillips, go away lady I hate looking at your smug decaying corpse like leathery mush. It's bad enough when ITV dredge you back from your crypt to cover for their daytime drivel whilst the fat Scottish annoying lass buggers off for her umpteenth holiday of the year, without having you forced upon me on advert breaks as well. |

The Go Indoors advert where they are all singing a Pet Shop Boys song

In this case, how can fictional animated characters sell out?.

I saw an abomination of an advert late last night, for late rooms it was. I've attempted to block out the memory but I seem to remember a couple in a bedroom. The man is lying and reading on the bed and his wife is stood at the side of the bed checking her phone. The woman who is on the larger side then screams, delirious at the fact she's got tickets to see Chris De Burgh. She gets so excited that her towel falls off at which point she is completely naked bar her underwear. Her exposed tits are then pixelated out as she proceeds to dance out of the room waving her 32z bra around in the air.
The voiceover proclaims that "it doesn't look like an advert for laterooms". Well so far laterooms ads have followed the following formula; common people doing something demonstrably embarrassing, idiotic and/or demeaning such as painting themselves gold, getting naked and then rubbing themselves in front of a mirror or having a complete gimp beatbox about Liverpool tickets in front of his sister, who clearly hates him as well as grown men dressed as pigs and fairy's crashing cars. So laterooms think their perfect customer is overweight, working class, highly obnoxious, likes to get gold and kinky in the hotel room and not the least bit self aware and that they probably drink drive. Seems to follow the formula ********. He narrates in this kind of overly familiar, laid back attitude where he describes what's happening as it happens, adding unfunny comments as the scenes progress. It's really not the traditional kind of ad narration. It reminds me of the deezer adverts. He says things like "cue massive logo sparkles". I'll give them credit because it is slightly different and kind of funny for its ridiculousness but all of that is outweighed by the fact that its levels of obnoxious stupidity make it completely unwatchable. |

I don't know what the advert is for but two very young boys are sitting in a police car pretending to be policemen and they are eating sandwiches. One of them has obviously never been told not to eat with his mouth open. Who on earth decided not to get him to shut his ...... mouth when they were making this awful advert.

Not that keen on the new Amazon advert with the girl on the swing, is it Duggie Brown pushing her? looks like it, LOVED him in the comedians.
It must've done him damage if he can't even push someone on a swing now! |

That toothpaste ad. where a bunch of unedifying people look like they've just got out of bed before cleaning their teeth. I dunno about you, but the first thing I do on getting out of bed is brush my hair. I then have a cuppa and eat my breakfast before cleaning my teeth.
Quote:
well with virtual no hair to brush and an en-suite bathroom, I clean my teeth before going down stairs for breakfast and then again in the downstairs cloakroom after breakfast, that way I can taste my breakfast, Pineapple juice, cereal with Kefir, followed by croissant, with Raspberry conserve and fresh brewed coffee,
![]() But yes, I clean my teeth before eating anything. Quote:
It's use of "Mad World" as the sound track grates - either the more upbeat, ironic original from Tears for Fears, or the more depressing Gary Jules version. The pace of the advert track seems to be nearer to the Gary Jules much slower remix. Neither of which seem appropriate for the message trying to be put across by the Halifax.

Why does everyone who works at McDonalds look like a cyber goth in need of a make under?
Are we supposed to swoon and think she's amazingly cool like the boys on the advert? ![]() I'd also have to tell them that I think their copy of What Do I Get is scratched. Original doesn't repeat 'get, get, get' like that, bloody annoying! |

Re the new tesco as I hope that they don't put any of the returned fruit etc back into stock, who knows what conditions they have been in since leaving the store.

There's currently an infomercial for some American exercise contraption called the Wondercore Smart that never fails to set my teeth on edge.

The Malteser ad where the woman gives her boyfriend the flick. I'm not surprised he's been snogging other women if she acts that immature all the time.
