    She won Love Island a couple of years back, didnt watch myself but read that she won because the public liked that she is nice but dim which I suppose is what the ad is playing up to.

    The advert where the woman is out jogging and sees a house she wants to buy, then sends a picture of it to her partner/husband.
    The bit I hate is where the bank employee has a big smile on his face when they buy it, like he is about to cry as he is so happy for then couple. its so fake.

    The GoMo advert..
    It looks like it was put together by a team on the apprentice. I keep picturing them shouting instructions to the people being filmed.
    What is with the guy pretending to fall, the girl shaking her hair etc..?

    Stupid advert.

    Saw this ad on the telly just now. It is obviously not aimed at me, I'm 99% sure the word "fam" has been squeezed in there as an afterthought. FAM, wot, are we all geezahs now?

    Where the man is rock-climbing and he says 'when you reach your limit, and then push that little bit further...'
    That was not your limit you dolt: the extra push took you to your limit :mad:

    Wtf is the ad with the two women sitting on a bench winking at each other about?
    I think it's something to do with phones.

    Tesco mobile, it almost stereotypes lesbians one good-looking the other butch, that's what I took from it apparently your not supposed to say it though

    When scumbag slang goes mainstream. Like when you see muppet celebs using gang signs when they havent the faintest idea what they're about.

    I thought they were special needs, the "butch" one goes on like a female Mr Bean. Its a horrible ad regardless of its meaning.

    I'd love the ould lad to say "yes, the
    monster is is there, he's one ugly fkr" then disappear off the screen making choking sounds.

    The Volvo ad where the 2 fools go reversing their car blindly out onto the road. Then look at each other shocked when they almost cause an accident.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,946 ✭✭✭kravmaga


    The Tesco mobile advert, 2 women on a bench making strange faces and eyes at each other, no verbal communication between them.

    You know when you know, then you have another woman across the sea from the mainland looking through binoculars observing the 2 women on the bench on an island.

    Maybe its just Im getting old, cant make it out at all, not funny at all, just stupid.

    Is there something sinister as myself and my partner think it might be some kind of Lesbian 3 some on the agenda , lol

    Who gets paid to make up this sh1t....

    Just saw that now.
    An acknowledgement that we share the roads with these kinds of eegits.

    Bart, I don't wanna alarm you, but there may be a boogeyman or men in the house!

    I hate the RSA ad with the cyclists making a case for more space.
    What gets me is the gob****e giving the thumbs up to the truck driver while obviously in his blind spot. Are the RSA saying this is a smart place to be if you’re on a bike? You won’t be seen by the driver anyway.

    And then being spied on by a Peeping Tom with a long-angled lens??
    What the hell has any of it got to do with a mobile phone provider??
    One of the more bizarre ads on telly...

    When I saw that sequel ad first I thought she was going out with the banker fella,there was so much flirting going on between them,then he arrives at the house and she’s all over some other bloke ,and there’s the jilted fella smiling coyly at the pair of them....couldn’t get my head around it:confused:

    The ad with some gobshi** in a pink hat

    I think some of these folks think the adverts are 'clever' or abstract. I remember Guinness made some 'what the hell was that?' adverts in the past.
    I know a teacher told us, the class, one time that some of these adverts are deliberately designed to annoy you.

    The reason being, the one's that annoy the s**t out of you stay in your brain. It's like when you have One of those days where everything goes to crap.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,578 ✭✭✭Mal-Adjusted


    The AIB ad where the man says “let’s take the risk, let’s really go for it now” It’s like listening to Fr Stone and his exceptionally droll voice from an episode of Fr Ted.

    What annoys me about that ad is that they treat "taking that risk" as a wonderful heroic moment, not something that might financially cripple you for the rest of your life, not as if it's a risk for the bank, who'll reposess everything up to your soul if they can.

    Banks are also notoriously risk-averse, so the ad rings a bit hollow.

    Where are ye all getting "lesbians" off that brutal Tesco Mobile ad? There seems to be a huge cohert of posters in this thread whose heterosexuality is being threatened by TV advertising.
