Can't stand the new McDonalds ad. The music is irritating too. And if all that isn't bad enough, Little Mix turn up 😡
Is that the one ending with two staff laughing inanely? When I worked at Little Chef 20 years or so ago, the job made me have a permanent scowl, and I just wanted to murder any customer who walked through the door, simply because they were interrupting my day.

I wasn't paying full attention but was there a voiceover at the end telling people how they could join in and learn said racket? One word for the whole thing - mental.

The advert where some guy is at an airport or something, totally in his own world and sits down whilst not realising that someone else is sitting on the seat.

Now instead of politely accepting the guys apology and instantly killing about 90% of the awkwardness, this tool just continues glaring at the poor guy for what seems like ages, generally making the atmosphere even more uncomfortable. It's people like the guy that was sat on that represent a lot that is wrong with society imo.

Indeed, but in reality, the first guy would not remain in the second guy's eyeline. He'd go elsewhere in the waiting room.

Any Apple or Sky advert - the voiceovers are always really smug sounding!

Also, does anyone get the joke in that furniture store ad where the woman from Homes Under The Hammer says "It's a good excuse to lighten up a bit!"??

Can someone explain to me how James Corden actually got to where he is today ? He's not actually good at anything he does, especially the thing he is supposed to be known for, comedy.

He just seem's like another one of these people that has been made famous for being stupid. When is this world going to stop making stupid people famous ?

Have you ever watch the execrable 'League of Their Own'. All he doe's on this shit storm of a 'lads' show is laugh maniacally at anything remotely funny. And it's not even funny, remotely.

The Fairy liquid one with the kid who wants to build a rocket ship.

Annoying partly because the kid is so whiney, and partly because he's wearing a spaceman outfit when he asks for the bottle, but not when he plays with it. But most of all it's annoying because the new style fairy bottles just don't make a good rocket ship. Yes, when they were the iconic tall white cylinder they made a decent Saturn V rocket, but the new shape is not right for a rocket ship, therefore the spaceship he does build is just rubbish.

This is the kind of post that makes my day. Thanks Paul_DNAP
