Most annoying advert on the TV right now

Is for Numan and its erectile dysfunction treatment.

I get unreasonably annoyed at the opening line: “erectile dysfunction is common in men”.

Well, yes, but it’s unlikely to be common in women!

Can I add another to the mix?

Those Vax Power One - I think I have the name right - ads where the stupid man and woman, following every mention of a USP, asking, "What does that mean?" For example, " Twin tanks."

It means it's got 2 tanks you thick pillock! 🙄

DH hates these ads with a passion. 😂

My dh hates the AA Tukker the dog advert. I think the dogs cute.

Advert for Ruby Magnum.. Song goes I dream a dirty dream of you baby, swinging from the chandelier.. Its an ice cream fgs.

All the adverts for sick kids, donkeys, etc headed by a famous rich person.. Pleading with us to give money.

Tampax bad.. But not where near as as awful as the old Bodyform ones.

Sex toy ads on Gold after 9

The one for a mattress that has rollers on it, pumping up and down.. Because you do more than just sleep in bed... AAARRRRGGGGHHHHH

I think it's for Very, but it's a radio one where a mum is checking off that she's got all the school shoes and bags and then she checks whether the children have got smiles on their faces and then she asks herself if she has a smile on her face and she then does the worst shrieking screaming laughing hysterical noise that makes me want to seek her out and gag her.

The one for some type of mixer drink where they go 'to the ends of the earth' for Mexican orange essence. Why not just go to Mexico?

Online dating ad for the over 50's, 'Ourtime' or something like that. So cheesy and fake. The facial expressions are stupid especially the bloke who 'can't stop smiling'.
Sun life over 50's and the surfeit of parsnips.
Purple bricks - virtually all annoying, but prize goes to 'say hello to Pumpkin' luckily not shown much now.

The jumbone dog one with the man going nom nom nom..

YES this one is so awful.

Agree with all the Nationwide ones, Oral B and the Virgin kids singing one.

There's also one that goes "ooooooon the market" that drives me crazy.

Galbani mozzarella, the morons who apparently cannot pronounce it. Makes me furious!

I always mute when any advert break starts. Except I think I'll have to turn the TV actually off as it's starting to have a numbing effect on my eyes and brain.
It seems that all the adverts I see now are just the same boring copied old format where whatever is being sold etc it's just some twats fucking prancing around. If it's not furniture it's mobiles. And who the heck gets so excited about a fecking McDonalds delivery they go ape and spin around the room?

Although my worst one of all is the fucking Wowcher one with the three dumb idiots. Especially the twatty ginger one! Who the fuck thinks that will encourage customers?

Although, going by the number of people whinging act their Wowcher voucher shave been redeemed without them getting anything shows some people must buy them.....

billyt · 25/08/2020 16:47

Wowchers have not Wowcher shave Grin

The one irritating me now is the ad for Dreams beds, where it shows the dad spooning the little girl and a big pervy smile on his face.

Deathraystare · 25/08/2020 19:12

LatteLover12 - Oh God yes, the Perf with Surf advert and the annoy little giggle. Aaaaaaargh!

powershowerforanhour · 25/08/2020 19:29

The Churchill one with the dog on the skateboard. They've even made the CGI'd bulldog so realistically brachycephalic that it has its tongue hanging out with the effort of putting its foot down now and then.

Money supermaaaaaaaaket. So English I hate him

OhWhatFuckeryIsThisNow · 25/08/2020 20:02

The Sofology ones with Owen Wilson (I just played my heartstrings.) cringe.
And either one with Robert deNiro, surely he’s rich enough?
