    Neil Patrick Harris - even his attempts at humour are inexplicable :rolleyes:

    Fcukers walking around with big Dublin Fire Brigade heads on them.

    The middle aged guy in the Allianz insurance ad with a northern accent that's arguing with his wife in a car about a mark on the windscreen. He is vaguely familiar but he inexplicably annoys the hell out of me.

    It's a chip!

    Aaaarggh!!

    Know the sort, Brendan. Lads who look like Ciarán Whelan. A jaw on them you could land a light aircraft on.

    He was in that Bulmer’s “pear cider” ads where the thickos in the orchard don’t want to grow pears so the boffins in the “office” tell them it’s a type of apple.

    joanne cantwell, she grates on me with her half spiteful way of asking questions looking for controversy where none exists.

    Let me guess-one of those 'country singers' who acts like she's back from her residency in Nashville?

    I hate that series of ads. I quite liked the ads Bulmers did up to that ,the "Nothing added but time" ones, but they ruined them when they introduced these recurring unfunny village idiot characters.

    Claudia Winkleman - even her name drives me nuts 😖


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,868 ✭✭✭Dickie10


    its a jewish name, careful now.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,281 ✭✭✭RabbleRouser2k


    I'm going to get shot for saying this, more than likely...
    (Keep in mind, I didn't grow up watching this guy, or being a fan)...

    But Tony Slattery really, REALLY annoys me. I watched that program 'whats the matter with Tony Slattery?'... and I found the guy insufferable.
    I tried to watch other interviews with him, old clips from his heyday in the 90s or 00s...

    I couldn't tolerate the guy. It's frustrating, because I've tried to pinpoint the 'why' of not liking him... I'm confused.

    I've seen people slag off that Anna Geary on here before. She's totally innocuous and harmless. People are just jealous someone from outside of the normal D4 circles managed to get their foot in the door tbh.

    Is she not named after a place in south Dublin?

    Leaving aside that I don't like the ad at all, but in the Vodafone add with all the children singing Starships 'Nothing's gonna stop us', there is one girl (boy?) wearing a stupid dog hat, with very long ears, that really, really irritates me.

    The others are bog standard Billy Barry child actors, but she (he?) inexplicably annoys me.

    It's Virgin Media, not Vodafone.

    But that advert is so irritating that people aren't even checking who made it-they don't stick around til the end. :D

    Anyone who incessantly name checks another person.


    Annoying......

    I don't know if this is a recent thing with the advent of social media, or the internet...

    But people who put asterisks into certain letters of people's names because they think that person googles their name

    (Using my own name for this example). But you'll see things like 'R*bbl*R*us*r*K doesn't eat eggs-what a plonker' for example. Instead of using someone's real name, they'll pull that kinda crud, because they're not grown up enough to use someone's full name.

    It's especially prevalent in certain media 'groups'-gaming, comics, music, writing, etc.

    I like Karen Koster, but nowadays I fly into a homicidal rage whenever I see her on the television doing these exercise workout things. There was one simpering, blithering "ad" I suppose you'd call it, in particular that featured a brief clip of her in a pink get-up doing just that, and I found it difficult to restrain myself from throwing something at the TV.

    Oh yes, Virgin Media. I think I'm conditioned now to think Vodafone when I see lots of red in an ad.

    Unfortunately I've seen the end plenty of times, it just doesn't stick!

    That Salt Bae fella.

    What's the big fascination with him? He literally cuts up meat and sprinkles salt over it (in a really annoying, show-offy way). It's not like he is some innovative chef or anything. Fools and their money and all that....

    The woman on the Fairy non-bio capsule advert really annoys me.

    Aren't "social media personalities" even more annoying during these times? Whether it's the incessant virtue signalling around BLM or posting their daily workouts or desperate #ad #spon partnerships for meaningless tat or ridiculous non-stop insta-storying their tedious lives. They just seem even more pointless and stupid in the middle of a global pandemic.

    People who pay any heed to these churns are even more annoying.

    Kieth Lemon. Not funny in any of his incarnations, shouty, crass and a fool.
