I hate this advert with a passion. Who actually talks like that?!

Every time I see it I think I’m missing something- I’d it supposed to be funny in that it’s so woodenly delivered?

The actor says his lines like a robot

isseywithcats · 14/11/2018 16:31

they are just trying to convince people that a glass full of gas water and artificial chemicals and sweeteners is good for you yuk i hate diet coke, hate that advert, i dont drink coke very often but if i do i want real coke

caperplips · 14/11/2018 16:31

Same! I cannot fathom this ad and it really annoys me - what the hell is going on with it??

That advert gives me the rage.
"it's good, no?"
Fuck off you twat!

BlueTongueSkink · 14/11/2018 16:34

Funnily enough I was just thinking about this and was going to start a thread exactly the same! I cannot BEAR it!!

PennyMordauntsLadyBrain · 14/11/2018 16:35

It has the subtlety of those ads that the Apprentice contestants have to write, cast and produce in about 45 minutes.

WeeMadArthur · 14/11/2018 16:39

I cringe whenever I see it, i wondered if it was a spoof first time I saw it. It reminds me of this...

PickAChew · 14/11/2018 16:40

Worse that he has a bottle of that vile mango stuff.

UselessTrees · 14/11/2018 16:56

I always hope he'll be mown down by a lorry at the end.

YouBetterWORK · 14/11/2018 17:06

It's the way he says "maybe you're into friends who leave voicemail messages - I know I am" with that slight crazed look in his eye.

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 14/11/2018 17:40

Its just a wanky advert.

I've mentioned it on another thread but again......Boots Ad, "She's me mum." It's like the TUI ad all over again.

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 14/11/2018 17:43

They got this so wrong, wanky beyond belief.

dawnacorns · 14/11/2018 17:43

I thought it was a spoof

Hairydilemma · 14/11/2018 17:44

The Diet Coke ads are dreadful, there was a previous one with a really annoying girl saying ‘if you want a Diet Coke, have a diet coke’ in a really patronising way.

My DCs said that annoying girl actually walks past robotic boy in this new ad, but I can’t face ever sitting through it to see if that’s true.

Nothisispatrick · 14/11/2018 17:47

It’s absolutely awful, my most hated ad currently on tv. Stupid twat.

CovenofMiLsfromHades · 14/11/2018 17:47

It's the way he says "maybe you're into friends who leave voicemail messages - I know I am" with that slight crazed look in his eye.

Yes this makes it seem like diet coke is something that only a few weird people would like.

AndNoneForGretchenWieners · 14/11/2018 17:49

I hate the bit at the end where he goes "...No?" Every time I see that ad I get rage.

drigon · 14/11/2018 17:50

Yes, I shout at it too when it's on. What a smug git!

Winterfellismyhome · 14/11/2018 18:24

I think its the wooden acting. Also not a fan of "its me mum"

I always say super goodHmm

goldface · 14/11/2018 19:06

It's super bollocks

booboobutt · 14/11/2018 19:37

Does anyone have a link? Google isn't helping! I love bad adverts.

AngeloMysterioso · 14/11/2018 19:43

Oh God, thank you! I have to mute it. Pisses me right off.

SignOnTheWindow · 14/11/2018 19:49

Along with:

"I didn't know Oral B even made toothbrushes!"

"With the round brush head" - stupid pointing

I hate adverts that infantilise women

riotlady · 14/11/2018 19:55

It’s so weird I keep feeling like there’s something I’m missing! What’s good about voicemails???
