I think the no-nonsence ads are funnyish.

I hate the sponsers of Corrie on UTV, don't even know what the company is, but it's the two girls that pretend to do press-ups while watching corrie, then the other girl while eating her dinner is so engrossed in the tv, keeps missing her mouth, and throwing the peas on the floor, grrr!
and that ad for a yoghurt or smoothie, where they got the worse singers in Britain to sing "I've got my berry, got my cherry, got my biscuit got my crunch! cringe!

I love that ad! Probably because I love loads of bad puns. This one is particularly meaty.

Back on topic, I also find Sensodyne ads very irritating.

mikeyboy

The Aviva insurance adverts with Paul Whitehouse playing a variety of "amusing" characters especially the latest one where he is the ghost of the man who was wise enough to provide for his family to have their annual holiday after his demise

Somewhere out there there's a bunch of 'creatives' reading this thread, toasting each other with champange and laughing. Laughing their holes off.

Because people hate their ads and are put off buying the products because of them?

One of the first principles of advertising is to get people talking about the product. Hence this thread.

True, but it's closely followed by generating goodwill about the product.

If I see an ad I don't like, I find myself prejudiced against the product, against my better judgment.

There's one particular ad that makes my blood boil, I can't remember what it's for but it's a song and the last line is sung by an old man at a wedding:

"I hit the floor and don't care how I dance!"

God I hate it. I also hate that Denny ad where she calls Grandad "Gan Gans."

leinster_fan

Can't believe AuToglass hasn't been mentioned yet!

I hated that AIB one where some woman is telling her life story where everything happened in Terenure. STOP SAYING THE WORD TERENURE...aaagh!
Always thought for the sake of balance they should have done another version of it where it revolves around Finglas or somewhere!

Bring back classsic ads like the Safe Cross code or the milk one 'A childs got more bones than a grown up has'

Wattle

'Wimax comin across the nation. Wimax the new sensation'

I would love to take that guitar and brain that baldy guy with it.

Kevwoody

The ad on 2fm where the woman is laughing like a nutter at something "funny" that tubridy said.

He is about as funny as getting kicked in the nuts

The King of Moo

The Moy Park rapping chicken.

First of all, you just can't make chicken cool for kids. They neither think of it as cool or uncool. It just is.

Second, the chicken knows what's in the food "chicken," doesn't he? I really don't think he should be so happy about kids eating it.

kissthesky

The Werthers Original sweet ad with the creepy grandfather who wants to give his grandson some of his "sweet and creamy and uncommonly good butter candy"

Dudess

Yeah I f'ucking hate those home movie sausage and rasher ads - "Oh it's so natural and down to earth!" No it's bloody cringey.

That ad about things happening when you're 18 - no, that stuff that's like a scene out of a Bret Easton Ellis book does not happen when you're 18 and in Ireland.

Flancrest

Apache Pizza radio ad has stopped me buying thier pizza it's so annoying.

foxyboxer
