    you've all heard em on the radio:

    4. lads in the bar and serious john (smithicks yolk) - volume goes down

    3. telly bingo - radio turned off

    2. ronan collins santa bear thing - plug ripped out of wall.

    1. mobile phone ad with those two twats wasting time - boot goes through the radio

    add your own, its not hard.

    I like that one cos it makes culchies out to be the ignorant twats that we know they are smile.gif

    Cinema ads upset me I must say. e.g. all recent Guiness ads such as the two twats riding their horses off a cliff, tho i did like the couple on the beach one - does ANYONE know who did the music for that ad?

    Eircom cinema ads are the fu<kin lamest, also Ritz and those friggin Malteser ads!!! like that one where they're watching the Godfather and yer wan puts on the Marlon Brando voice, I honestly thought they were taking the pi$$ out of people with speech impediments first time I saw that!!

    I'd have to agree with the SantaBear add, it sucks so much @55...
    I also hate any adds about Tampons, Nappies, or starving 3rd world children.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,275 ✭✭✭Shinji


    Or all three at once. Now that would be annoying, once you'd got past the goggle-eyed "what the fuk!" stage...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭El_Presidente


    I agree with Space Cowboy, the mentos one.

    Must kill Linchon...

    I can't believe nobody mentioned those awful Bulmer's Cider ads. That fruity, oleaginous voice... those appallingly pretentious scripts... the overblown music... Christ, and this is to promote the rotgut that knackers drink in derelict houses!
    Of course, anybody who ever took a marketing course knows what they're up to - but they can **** off and "reposition the product" up their arses. It won't work!
    Never mind pulling the plug - if I have to listen to that crap again I'll drive to Donnybrook and blow up the transmitter.

    Naw - it has to be any of those really old Radion Ads (the home movie jobs) when it was first unleashed on the market.

    My gawd they sucked ass!



    All the best,

    Any Harp or Smithwicks ads. "ah sure we've ages yet"

    Mitchelstown one with the scruffy thug on the cliff which depicts Irish people as a race of rugged simple cheese eating folk.

    Julian Clary selling Daz? Oh dear oh dear.

    That Alpha Diamond ad for razors. 'She wont fu<k me unless I use an Alpha Diamond!!!' ok they didnt actually say that, but thats the implication smile.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32 Mr. Socko


    The are several candidates for this title, kinder, radion, fairy liquid, aid appeal, tampons etc...
    But the winner has to be nappy ads where a baby's **** is felt to see how fu<kin dry it is!!!!!
    A close runner up was the kerrygold "who is going to take the bloody horse" ad
    I will think of more.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 32 Mr. Socko


    Those fu<king stupid Power City "sale must end soon" ad's are also high up on my list of sh!t ads


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    That ad for the mobile phones... "Fones Direct", or something similar ... some gobsh!te who likes to star in his own ads pleading with us to "Call now!" and preaching about all the fúcking extras you get with one of his phones... and the fact that they deliver...

    He annoys the $hit out of me, makes me want to shove his phones down his throat...
