Even more adverts you despise

Agreed, well cast and directed, and a great performance from the lead. The nodding assent than the quickfire change of expression when the present loser boyfriend turns to look back is great comedy. Daft ad but fun.

Extra chewing gum ad with the talking head mouth thing. Creepy and cringe!

It's a long time since I saw an ad analysed so much. It's a sh*te ad but is it not simply that the gimpy family have come up with this false story of running out of petrol so that they can gorge the pile of Aldi crap themselves rather than share it at the party or whatever they were going to?

They used to say ad agencies make annoying ads as they stick out from the crowd but I wonder do any ads put people off the products? I know at the moment that the Bulmers ad with the shouty goons bugs me so much that I just wouldn't buy the stuff and speaking of alcohol I'm still waiting for an avalanche to take out that "pint of Coors, please" gimp.

I'd say thats a huge part of it now alright. Now more then ever, more and more parties are fighting for our attention online. Someone probably figured out that people recognise and remember the most annoying ads and I suppose any publicity is good publicity when it comes to advertising online.

He's the lad who calls it the "Loddo"… a right dose

Only if you're watching broadcast tv, and your TV supports TS, timeshift, then you can watch say 20 minutes behind, then scoot through the ads with the ff button, or pause program to make tea or go to the jax, build up some reserve recorded time to ad skip. On most players or YouTube, there's no getting away, unless you're paying. Even with a sub, I think Netflix still gives you ad pain. Even the 'Skip in X seconds' button on YouTube is a red herring, because if you think about it, you have to sit through the minimum ads time until the Skip icon appears. The Mute sound button is the best you'll get on built in TV app streamers, you can't even switch away to another broadcast channel, as it knows your avoiding it and waits...

if you have your apps on an external device like a Firestick, Apple tv, etc, you can switch back to live TV while they grind through the ads, hopefully unaware that you've switched away, but these days with intelligent HDMI connections the damn things might just pause. Could be worse, like d'internet. Have you ever clicked on a Daily Mirror or a Galway Beo news article link. Ads explode like popcorn on the pages, a visual abyss.

He may have started a trend. I can only assume it wuz his sister talking to Pat Kenny the other morning. She wuzzed a few times before I decided that she was actually imparting some useful information , so I didn't throw the radio into the bin.

Yes certain ads have put me off buying certain products. I think if everyone emailed the company saying 'I have bought your product for x years, I will no longer be buying it because of this ad' we would see a big improvement in the ads.

That'd be his Gen Z socially anxious scopophobic daughter, a product of the Internet generation maybe, though everything dad's do embarrasses daughters of any generation. Let's flip the gender;

"Mom in supermarket in trackies while wearing heels? The fkn state of ya! Takes the bleedin' good food mood right off me! " Popular image from the 80s, can't unsee it.

I love the youtube where a woman challenged men to do something only men can do. The winning bloke went into Boots, bought a toothbrush, and left. Immediately.

Watch out for that poor circulation, numb soles also, can be neuropathy, also linked to diabetes. Consult Dr Google and really drive yourself mad!

I found that clip, lost in a mire of videos (Grandkids watch YT on my TV account, after three days there's hundreds of pink panter, pepper pig, and roblox in my history, depending on the age of the viewer).

It's actually a Boots like store, probably American.

Anything starting with:

" The ( authorities) don't want you to know about this ( gadget ) "

As retailed from some douchbag merchant with a warehouse full of them like the time when homer orders a voice projector machine for Bart.

Yes, it's fine every now and again if done well but it's wall to wall husbands with severe learning difficulties, to say it nicely. Between husbands drying their socks with a hairdryer to washing the dishes on a clothesline with a power washer. And the wives are frequently gaslighting bullies.

And pools. And aquatic stuff.
