I find it interesting how much every-day life in the US has changed over the last 40 years - if you were to believe that KFC ad.

Yeah that ad bugs me too. The ad gives the impression that the little boy at the start is the same person coming down the stairs over the years and shows him older each occasion. It then says blah blah blah KFC over 40 years. Well if the old man coming down the stairs is supposed to be the little boy at the start of the ad then he has aged very badly and looks more like 70-80years old! Probably the effects of eating too much genetically modified chicken from KFC!

Be more dog! What the heck is that about?

Those stupid hurling championship ads with the nonsensical pseudo-moving speech as the narration. It pains me to hear, it makes so little sense and is so contrived.

I'd be a big fan of the championship and watch most of the matches, but that ad irritates me to no end.

Those VHI ads do my nut

Cold War Kid

The AIB ones. Those accents/voices.

mailforkev

The Vodafone one with the kid filming his smug faced dad singing in his restaurant and the video "goes viral".

Everything about it makes me stabby.

That f**king McDonalds ad with 5 actors eating various stuff and then that smug stubbly bearded twat smiling at eating his processed big mac meal. The advert and the f**king music in it makes me want to join ISIS.

in fairness the ''doing'' girl isn't too bad, but that ''brave'' yoke, she can **** right off

I find it weirdly anachronistic that people still watch television on...actual televisions. Laptop plus adblocker is the way forward people. Haven't seen an ad since sometime in 2011.

I'd be the same as yourself, as I watch hardly any television, except for RTE's mainstream news coverage. But as sure as the angelus is broadcast before the 6 o'clock news, and Jean Byrne's sexy weather forecast will be at the end of it, that f**king Mcdonalds advert is going to be broadcasted right in the middle of it.

Atlantic Dawn

Axa red line where the guys Mr's wants to bang the next door neighbour and get a lend of his car, if it was the other way around there would be murder.

Robsweezie

those creepy flora ads with the ''wrestling'' parents and the ''fit'' mother....and these are supposed to be for kids....I swear next there'll be a '' I caught my brother playing with a sausage and he was looking at a woman with her boobies out'' themed advert.

Any insurance ad, they're all designed to be as irritating as humanly possible with crap jingles, "humour" and instantly dislikeable actors.

Since the first boy is dressed as for the 1910s, you'd worry about a multinational that thinks 40 years takes 100.

I used to like the Cherman bear. Post-Greek-'bailout', I aim my finger at the TV and go "pkkkhhhh"! Handy as a reminder that the product is German, however.

fortwilliam

Anything that tells me to "Take the Challenge"

Fupp off, what challenge? the one where I buy all your crap? that one?............. oh, ok..

Robsweezie

goodfella's pizza ad with the ''kitch''........

valoren

That Coca Cola Happiness Ad with the guy slurring an "inspirational" rap in a Rocky Balboa-esque voice.

Awful. Just Awful.

"She's into surrrrrfin', dancin', m-eeee-usic....."

Ghost Buster

Ads which bug the bejebus outta me and for which i see no point are one which contain obviously non Irish people in obviously non Irish locations which are over dubbed with Irish accents!
One which comes to mind is a Sprite ad the end of which features an obviously South American hottie running a street stall on a balmy summers evening (so not Ireland!) hauling a customer over the counter for a snog whilst exclaiming 'Moi koinda mahnnnn!!!)
**** off!!!!!!!

They don't deserve vocal chords/voiceboxes.

MrWalsh

The VHI ads because the reality is that if you phone to ask if your policy covers something you get a snotty 20 minute circular conversation where the person refuses to give a straight answer and continues to parrot "Well it depends what the consultant puts on the form".

The Donegal Catch ad that was my favourite ad ever has recently made a come back but theyve edited out a vital part!! He used to say "You might be beautiful but theyre putting MY idea on FILE, in a FILING CABINET".
Theyve edited out the "You might be beautiful" bit
