Hate that new Optilase ad with the cross eyed one in it. The face on the guy when she comes out after getting it done says it all

Absolutely delighted you did that as I couldn't figure out how to get the ad in to a post,

Here he is in Carry on Screaming

Eircom ads with your man with a face I would love to punch at the call centre diagnosing problems with connections: Hard to pinpoint why but the voices are annoying, the stories are cheesy and eircom is generally terrible which rules out me liking any of their ads.

Guess you don't remember the Eircom rat ads then?

Regards...jmcc

The ad where the mother is rapidly preparing the dinner while they have horse racing commentary screeching away in the background.

matthew8 · 06-11-2011 02:48AM

God I hate that ad for Centra with your one Maeve going around telling people shopping that they need to buy more stuff. If I walked into a shop with someone like her I would walk out in protest and never come back. Thank god Centra don't ACTUALLY have anyone like Maeve.

psychward · 06-11-2011 02:59AM

I hate ads for banks . Hypocritical and pointless for whats basically government funded monopolies which don't give out loans to pretend that they actually do.

I hate the Tesco every little helps adverts where they pretend to actually give a fukk about my family when the reality is they raise their prices whenever they can get away with it or camouflage it.

I hate the adverts for the new terminal in Dublin airport. What a pointless waste of money. Where else are we going to be flying from anyway ?

I hate that Eircom ad- the dad is especially creapy! VAH FTW!

Saint_Mel · 06-11-2011 11:06AM

That brutal TK Maxx advert where yer wan badly acts when saying "I thought she knew"

the purple tin · 06-11-2011 11:30AM

His voice

Has his mother been mixing downers into his cake mix.

Mikosyko · 06-11-2011 09:13PM

The tkmax ads have a truly horrible irritating jingle that makes me want to kick my fuking radio in :mad:

Mike Litoris · 06-11-2011 09:59PM

That god awful no nonesense.ie ad where a girl mimics a busy ring tone. Fcukin embarrassing

Acacia · 07-11-2011 12:12AM

I can't beleive the universe has managed to combine three of my most hated things on the planet, but it has happened- the mention of the "C" word 2 monthes before the 25th of December, M&S adverts and the X-Factor.

M&S' latest crapfest marries the not-so-talented cretins of the Annual Glorified Kareoke Competition with their usual whiff of middle-class smugness to start the orgy of Christmas consumerism off even earlier than last year. It's a clusterfcuk of horribleness that manages to squeeze all the cringeworthy banality of Middle-England (and Ireland) into two excruciating minutes.

Worst. Ad. Ever.

DRose1 · 07-11-2011 12:15AM

I am sure it has been said a hundred times in here, but just to add one more: The go compare ads infuriate me.

stinkle · 07-11-2011 01:55AM

Maybe this isnt the right thread (mods please move if necessary) but what's with the NoNonsense.ie double decker bus driving around Dublin with no one aboard? I've seen it in all sorts of places. Never any passengers, also with the weird decoration of the bus (buses?), it would seem like anyone travelling on it cant see outside

Freddie Flintoff. Someone punch him in the balls! :mad:

the purple tin · 11-11-2011 02:44PM

There is one I think for An Post with old women swimming in the sea. When a young man comes walking past one of them takes a photo of his arse on her mobile without him knowing and they all start cackling.
Jesus, could you imagine the backlash if they had had old men taking a photo of a girl in her swimsuit instead.

Any Vodafone add for the last 5 years, absolutely annoying and terrible. Main reason why I will never sign up for Vodafone while they continue to give us those terrible adds.

^^^ this! Completely agree. I find it totally nauseating.

swordofislam · 14-11-2011 02:01PM

The McDonald's ad where the kid says 'the moon is millions of miles away'. It isn't you little bastard! And all the kids being middle class.

'Look McDonald's isn't just for skangers!'

Yeah it is.

RVD420 · 17-11-2011 09:17PM

New halfords ad with kids screaming on bikes. Horrible. :mad:
