    Any ad that has some whispy singing clown covering a song, have heard covers of everything from the proclaimers to joy division, sick of it now
    Heard another one today I can't remember what song they're destroying but as you say it's getting pretty tiresome at this stage.

    The KBC ad makes absolutely no sense with the hipsters and still the same for the last few years.

    Deliveroo with people leaping around the place and going crazy over a takeaway, get a life.


    The Dr Oetker ad with the couple dancing on the coffee table in their socks. It is one of those crappy old ones with the thin legs and you can see it juddering away, just about to break under them.

    This made me laugh, it's a great description and I don't even know the ad! :D

    48 ad starting to grind my gears. Or should I say fordy eigh or dada, as young hip Irish people in adverts for some reason can't say the letter T.

    I like the Three ad.
    I think the little fella is adorable, and I like the idea that he trusts so much in the grandad that once he says there's nothing there, the little fella is happy.

    It's on too often though.

    It's annoyed me from day one because of fordy ayde (48).

    Similarly on the radio there's ads about job oppordunidies that make me want to break something.

    The recruitment ad for the RAF. It makes it look like a holiday camp: lounging on the beach, beers around the campfire, hiking with your friends, playing tennis and football etc.

    Is that Grandad Eamonn's friend from Brigid and Eamonn (RTE series)? Or is it that he just happens to have the same accent as the lad from B&Eamonn.

    Amen - given how awful Vodafone is, it would be money better spent on improving their service than wasted on so much clueless adverts.

    It's perfectly cromulent word, designed to embiggen the smallest man. :D

    The Holly Willoughby hair dye ad. Not a drop of dye goes on her pristine white top, or the dazzling white towel. I spend more time cleaning up the bathroom afterwards than on actually doing my hair.

    At least they got rid of her declaring shock by saying "I didn't even know Oral B made a toothpaste"

    Still an awful ad though but was much worse.

    Some of these actors, I swear, will never get acting jobs outside of adverts. Especially when they're acting in adverts that are just despised.

    The advert with the bad cover of 'can't stop the feeling', for the 'homeschool hub thing.

    Whether it's the bad singing, or the 'drunk auntie at a wedding' dance, or that it seems like it was made by people who just learned to use a camera... it wouldn't really annoy me, tbqh.

    But it's on almost as much as the Dermot Bannon adverts... and it's REALLY grating.

    This advert popped up late last night. It's less an annoying advert, more a sad one really.

    The dude who pops up around the 14 second mark died last year. So kind of sad.

    Oh Jesus.....

    The good news however is it won't last a week because the #WokeFolk will be horrified and outraged that there's no people of colour, people with disablities, transgender etc. etc. etc. represented so they'll riot in the streets until this is addressed. :rolleyes:
