I wonder if I am alone in finding these ads annoying???

Wheetabix, busy days, son, dad and baby have a busy day but Mum's day is not mentioned!

Lynx, buildig an ark and spraying himself in Lynx so loads of women will come and stay in his ark, crap.

Optins indulgence, tastes like someone smashing up a chocolate cake, chocolate bunny and box of chocolates - never tried it so can't say but would be AMAZED if that were true.

Saw all three ads in the same commercial break!

That Weetabix add with the talking dog and asst. other talking pets encouraging the kids to enjoy a chocolate laden breakfast cereal.

I love the assumption that kids are incapable of eating a chocolate free breakfast, and am now eternally grateful for them informing kids that they don't have to suffer normal weetabix when there is a chocolate one you can stamp your foot for....

And my thoughts on the Options ad were...bllcks! Grin

I'd say pretty much all of them are incredibly irritating!!! Grin

The Lynx adds are horrendous, but I really REALLY wish they'd get rid of those bloody meerkats, and the all singing, all dancing Go Compare ad!!!! ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!

Yes, MelinaM I hate all the singing, gets in your head. But I must confess I like the Meerkats, I do think that is clever how they have built on it but it has not made me want to use their services!
