    The Domino's Pizza ads during the Simpsons on Sky.

    The Alpha Diamond Razor ad - 'she won't fu<k me unless i get a Diamond!!!'

    Maybelline ads - esp. Sarah Michelle Gellar one - like can you say stupid vain bimbo?

    "Does your life stop when your period starts?"

    That annoying red phone-car thing.

    That stupid tart who is dressed in a dentists outfit, in a dentists room with a dentist chair holding a dentist implement and toothpaste and what are the first words out of her bleedin gob?

    "I'm not a dentist but..."


    I'll think of more as and when...

    A few that I really hate:
    "Hi, I'm Ned Kelly from Fones Direct. Lets have a look at our LATEST special offer!"
    ARGH FFS BUGGER OFF! This is why people shouldn't star in their own advertisements.

    "This is a limited offer" - On his ad that I saw on Friday, it said "offer ends February 29th 2000" ...

    All tampon ads... "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAHHHHHHHH BODYFORRRRRRM!" ... fúck sake...

    And lets not forget the Persil ad with that twat "Hello, Persil careline, how can I help you?" in a large open office, with a huge box of persil conveniently sitting beside her.

    gawd

    I will think of more in time too smile.gif

    Oh god yes, that dickhead Australian/British comedian guy who "surprises" families in the shopping aisles and insists on inspecting their shopping baskets. I simply cant repeat what I'd tell him to do (it would be like one of those "toned down" Pot Noodle ads, which I think are a scream).

    The ads for that cheese string.
    The ads for flip pops or some such name (lollipops)

    Just thought of another one... ugh...
    That "Huggies" ad with the two babbies dressed like a doctor and nurse... jaysus that annoyed me mad.gif

    All those other ads for nappies are crap too... we don't WANT to see mothers fondling their babies ar$es...

    And those "Flash" ads with your man and his "brownie points". Dear God... most normal people do not compulsively clean things...

    Yes......amazingly annoying ad, "It was ony the germs that needed killing", FU(K UP, you both deserve to be drowned in a pool of pi$$ and vomit!!!

    Also ALL the ads for chat-lines on late at night, especially the Gay X-Cange, FFS, I know I don't want to see a pack of Fags "working out" in the Gym. And the Ad for the "Singles Bar"........."If your single, or even if you're not, lots of people want to meet up for a chat, or maybe something more", in other words If you're an old married ******* you can ring up and you'll get a shag off some sexy bird. MY HOLE.

    There's plenty more, can't think of any more at the minute though.

    The Sky adds that has *HUGE* spoilers for T.V. shows (the Buffy/Angel ones are particularly bad).

    Those stupid stupid STUPID double glazing ads with yer man from Conrnation St.

    Ads for razors, nappies, tampons, washing powder are univerally bad.

    Those Iceland ads (or is it Asda) with the people walking down the alises doing some sort of dumb show.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,393 ✭✭✭Jaden



    I would also like to add all Coca Cola ads to the list of annoying adds. Dumb yanks actually find that crap amusing. I'd strangle that parrot if it made those noises at me.

    I also do not give a sh1t about new bofyform GLX turbo towels with go faster flexable wings. Birds do not smile during periods, they moan, gripe and snap at you. Gah.

    Bring back the Telly Bingo (Tuesday nights) ads. That tune is one catchy little number.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 842 ✭✭✭the celtic tiger


    For me the most annoying ads are the ones for power city. You know the ones i'm on about....the dublin knacker saying...."A MITSUBISHI 14" PORTABLE TELEVISION ONLY £19.99!!!!.....GET DOWN TO POWER CITY NNNNOOOOOWWWWW!!!!"
    He screams down the telly at you....ffs

  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    All of those late night ads for butt/abs tightening equipment. You know the ones where the muscle-monkey screams TECHNIQQQQUE!!! at you as a sales method.

    Also ANYTHING from Sounds Direct, in fact anything with Direct in its name....its like... "hey! We wont send your stuff via Singapore! We're brill!"

    Carphone Warehouse: DIE DIE DIE.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,372 ✭✭✭Illkillya


    definitely the Kenco coffee ads. Jenkins had a good point


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


    All those corny Brit ads for insurance and debt payments and so on... "With just ONE easy payment of £12,456,786,324,524.99, we will take care of all your finances!"

    "Sign your life away on our dodgy insurance plan targeted at really old people!"

    Ugh.

    All those tampon ads hve to be grouped together as the worst.

    In fact the worst day of your life is sex-ed day in school because that's when you realise what those ads are actually for.

    From that day on the remote control can never leave your hand. You learn the recognize the first few frames of every ad so your finger reflexivly changes the channel when they come on.

    Of course if there's someone else in the room you can't make it look like you're just switching to avoid that ad so you have to keep switching. By the time you go through all the channels the program's over and now you'll never know if Mulder and Scully exposed the goverment conspiracy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭SantaHoe


    For me it has to be those loner-chat adds shown late at night on UTV.
    "Find love on the phone."
    You know the gay-chat party lines? (TCT knows them very well)
    With that stupid looking queer suggestively grinning at you, as if to say "come here, let me bend you over my coffee-table".

    Erk, no thanks m8, just let me change the channel.

    that malteeser ad where she sticks the maltesers in her cheeks and tries to be a don or something.
    god it makes me soo mad!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭Asuka


    Mail Order CD ads.

    '*The* very best amazingly wonderful love songs... ever! Unfortunately, theyre soooo good that you wont find them in any shop cos we're too lazy to distribute them properly. You have to make an expensive phone call to be *allowed* the *privilage* of paying our exorbitant prices to listen to music that is played far too often on the radio!'

    '<whatever_the_name_of_the_company_is>. We know stupid gullible people are watching our ads. We wouldnt know great music if it was given to us by God on a CD entitled 'Great Music'.'

    Annoyed-ka


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,099 ✭✭✭✭WhiteWashMan



    ahahha, remember the add for that music selection...the one where your man has these speakers the size of the empire state building.
    TO LISTEN TO THESE SONGS PROPERLY YOUD NEED SPEAKERS LIKE THIS....OR YOU COULD BUY THIS ALBUM AND LISTEN TO IT IN YOUR OWN HOME.


    ERM...SORRY?
    where do i get the speakers and they wont fit in my livbing room?!
    and its got 'cool' stuff on it like status quo and t-rex...hardly music that warrents 7000 ft high speakers now is it smile.gif


    oh, and any butter/fake butter/margarine/spreadable margarine straight from the fridge/low fat butter/low fat margarine etc etc etc etc ads!

    i hate them all.
    and that stupid red laugh cow for that stupid cheese.

    Smithwicks ads with the pub full of northern weirdos and the requisite "funny" guy who does bad impressions.

    Any life insurance ads presented by pensioners. "I'm going to die soon...and so are you"

    Every car ad ever made except the first couple with Nicole and Papa. Then they did it to death.

    Yellow pages ad with the 2 uglies and the trashed flat.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,039 ✭✭✭Vorosha


    I don't know where I saw it and I don't know what it was for... some company sponsoring some program. All these spoons with expressions painted on them. Standing on a colourfull table. Telling stupid jokes? I remember it killing off half of my soul.

    "I associate pleasure with good cleaning." That knew mop-ina-box from Flash or Daz or someone. Duster thing. I still can't believe she says that.

    That fat, dirty tooth fairy "hard as rock" bull**** dick (an' his son).

    "a boffin? DON'T - TALK TO ME - ABOUT A BOFFIN! ...all right sorry it took so long."

    Don't talk to me about bad ads...


  • Subscribers Posts: 1,911 ✭✭✭Draco


    The spoon ad is for whoever sponsers South PArk on sky. I thought some of them were quite funny...
