    I don't like those Airwick adverts.

    You're a filthy f*cking animal living in a house with other filthy f*cking animals... why the hell do care about your house smelling nice... Do octopod even have noses?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,081 ✭✭✭fricatus


    Cadbury Gorilla ad.

    Agreed. Half the population is going around saying how great that ad is, but I... just... don't... get... it...

    Brilliantly produced though, I'll give it that.

    My latest one is the weetabix ad with the horrible D4 kiddy dubbing over the original voiceovers.

    He says something like 'cailín bothair bainne!', basically he's just yelling random crap out in Irish to impress foreign girls who can't speak it at all.

    Sweet. Titty****ing. Christ.

    Is murder a crime? Please tell me it's not.
    This ad is unbelievably infuriating, so much so that I now laugh dementedly at it instead of getting angry for some reason.

    You must be joking, its the best ad out this year. Is maith liom caca milis, Sharon Ni Beholain :D It always reminds me of these yanks we ran into in Prague, when the bird credited my ability to speak English (something my mate had said to him in the US as well) I knew it was waffling time, so I started ag caint ar mo thoin as Gaelige, getting them to toast the drinks with a slainte mo chairde. Which led to Im of Irish Descent time and the incredible claim from said bird that her grandmother was from Ireland and didnt speak any English when she arrived in the US as a girl :confused: (as far as I recall school has been compulsory since around the famine, as has the teaching of English. By that reckoning Id guess that the last Irish people in Ireland who couldnt speak any English died out by the 1940s :p Of course i didnt bother mentioning it, i was tryna get stuck in, but my mate and I had trouble keeping a straight face. Additionally i got the number of a Swiss bird i went out with a few times by teaching her "Ta tu go halainn" and all this sh1te :) Nearly laughed my bollix off when this fine Pole i used to work with said some Irish lad at a party she was at at the weekend had been drunk and teaching her Irish, i knew his game :)

    Hate the new mackers ad for the new chicken burger with the deep voiceover on the bird. And the ad with the elf girl for bank of Ireland or whoever.

    It's been a couple of years now since it was shown but those Nicotennell ads or whatever it was called with your one, Sue, who was giving us a progress report of giving up smoking!! Did my head in!

    At the moment, I actually quite like a lot of the ads that are out there. Except the Budweiser ones. This new one where your man is searching for the 'Greeaannnnnnarh' bar or whatever it's frickin called. So, we're seriously expected to believe he was thick enough to visit every pub starting with Gr on his Golden Pages list, but didn't look through the whole list first to see which ones were near each other.

    And jingles. I hate jingles.
    Found myself singing 'one two three dot ie, just log on and save money' all day today, and now I've 'fitzpaaatrrriiick' in my head.

    I like the Halifax, Amstel and Aero ads. And I must be the only person on this thread who still finds 'HI I'M BARRY SCOTT' entertaining. The Financial Regulator ads are great as well.

    The aero ad where the guy with the bung eye tries to be sexy.

    It even worse when they have the sighing woman voiceover, just to patronise you and tell you when you're supposed to get aroused. :rolleyes:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 691 ✭✭✭pepper

    It's probably been mentioned already, but the Bank Of Ireland ad with the stupid pixie tart who can't speak properly kills me. Is it just me, or does she say (and I'm typing this exactly), "Is that just fairytale?". It should be: "Is that just A fairtytale?" right? Please tell me someone else has noticed this!

    What a muppet, and the fact that they isolate that part of the ad to highlight her feck-up is completely retarded!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,818 ✭✭✭Gauge


    I may be going mad, but I always heard it as 'It's not just a fairytale!'

    I hate that line anyway, it's so forced. 'FAIRYTALE! SHE'S A FAIRY! GET IT? GET IT? AREN'T WE CLEVER?'

    i believe she says "its not just fairytales"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    And let's conveniently ignore that she spends the ad yapping away about buying this-and-that whilst the rest of the fairies are toiling away in the back.

    Yeah right luv, lolling around with your head in the clouds and exercising your gob all day long is a sure path to finding yourself running the company one day. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,476 ✭✭✭✭Our man in Havana


    All those dubbed ads drive me mad. The faux Irish accents added to UK ads are maddening.

    Yeah I think she does say that and Yes, it has always annoyed me.

    More annoying ads:
    The fireman with the cat....
    Vodafone xmas ad - so fake and cutesy
    AIB ad with the actor - "it's sweet", smug looking little fecker. They feel the need to add 'The people featured in this ad have received gratuities for their time.' I'd bloody hope so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 295 ✭✭Mikosyko


    I hate that coors light advert with the snow people going down the moutain and throwing heads at each other. The music is sickening too :mad:


    oh and those cilit bang ads!! :mad:
