Oh jeebus that ad is so ****e, amongst the worst I've ever seen.

I think it's designed to be painful so you rush out to the chemist to get some Isolief. Personally think you'd need the neurofen plus to take the edge off that crime of an ad.

Nah I’m not at all, but as a larger girl myself I just think that they could have made an effort and not put clown makeup and horrible clothes on her. Us larger ladies can be elegant and stylish too, but the advert doesn’t convey that at all, and I certainly would not be rushing to lookup their clothing line based on the ad.

But we're bubbly and funny, right? Cuddly and maternal if required . Never, ever trendy, sophisticated or alluring. That's seems to be an advertising golden rule.

I swear I want to rip the tv off the wall every time they come on. I do be frantically trying to change channel or mute

Not even sure what this ones for but it features the big guy off that series of poxy Bulmers ads with the village idiots from ten years ago. In it his ugly wife stares at him angrily over something he says.

The begging ads do my head in. Oxfam, Barnardos, kids in Africa, RSPCA, etc, and they're always on at dinnertime to make you feel bad.

Did somebody say.....

Zak Flaps

Seriously.....how could the makers of this ad not realise that an old man taking to a kid about a one-eyed monster is very creepy?

That dreadful LidlAldi ad with the irritating family

castletownman

Those gimps trying to play golf in the lotto ad. Particularly the gormless idiot who gets the 'hole in one'.

No course with any credibility at all would let them near the first tee.

the purple tin

The ambulance chasers must be doing great business with their ads on constantly.
Why do they only advertise on saorview channels? You never see one on ITV, C4 or RTE.

They should do an alternate cut for Halloween where the grandfather just says “oh holy merciful **** what is that?!!” and hangs up

The son of one of my colleagues did a You Tube skit with his dad and the line at the end was “Seamus ruuuuuuun!!!!!” - I near wet myself watching it!!!!

The Gaviscon ad with yer wan in the cafe playing table tennis with the burger... I'd have loved to be in the room when that was pitched.

If theres an ad on tv ,i simply press the mute button , and look at my phone.
The only ads i watch are ads on youtube ,which you can skip after a few seconds.
i think the ad on youtube , where the irish dad fixs the door and is locked out with his family is quite funny.
if i record a program i simply fast forward past the ads.

I do not like the Super Valu ads. Check this out: those ads are cringe.

"Mum no screens at the table". Where the mother is having an important meeting at presumably dinner time (6-7 o'clock in the evening).

That bugs the **** out of me as she is affecting the work life balance of not only herself and her family, but the poor bastards dragged into a meeting well after working hours. I'd hate if she was my boss.

"I'm a man of simple tastes"

Me too, and one is not seeing your stupid ugly face on my telly

Ah no, yer wan's back, the one who just discovered lamb and now can't stop cooking it.
"Not bad for a Tuesday lads!"

Or better still, a christian brother is stretched out under the bed in full regalia, cassock an all, staring wistfully and longingly into space

I love Lamb. I love stir fries, It'd never occur to me to incorporate the two. In fact, I'm not convinced it would actually work.



That Spar ad has been on this evening about 9 times and after a string of expletives from me he gets muted. I can't put my finger on it, but there's something about that ad that makes me crazy.

That's all very dull and sensible ?

Half the fun is releasing built up bile and invective at the ones you hate !

Get a life dude !
