I dont watch TV very much but when i do for some reason the ads give me the
rage.
One in particular is the muller rice ad I WANT IT WARM i dont no why but i cant stand it.
And the Noddle ad with the donkey i mute the TV.
My last one is the listerine mouthwash donkey why i hate it i dont no.

Have you got any to add to the list.

Omniplex cinemas in Ireland . They have a a for there pass were a guy repeatedly munches popcorn and loudly slurps on a drink. Why highlight the worst part of a cinema experience in an add for cinemas

Lloyds Bank.
The advert with horses running along a beach, and staying we are here for you- whilst round my way, they are shutting branch after branch

The clear blue ones always annoy me. All the smilng and hand over the tummy, and partner twirling the woman around. No shocked expression, no "oh shit, Dave, it's positive"
Its too fairytale for me Grin

The concert going tena lady discreet pants wearing shoulder riding woman one

CookieMonster25 · 14/10/2023 14:20

FlowerPower12345 that's really made me chuckle, shit Dave it's positive and the camera zooming in on Dave's panicked face 👀🤣

That men's perfume ad where the voice over man says something like "in a backwards world, what if you could move forward". I am moving forward. All the time. It drives me potty.

All the Curry's beyond techspectations adverts. The one with the woman in the airport security tray, the one with the guy in the baked beans, the one with the people eating tech info. Who came up with these ideas? Just shut up and fuck off.

The current Go Daddy one. Fuck off with your virtue signalling bollocks.

beachcomber70 · 14/10/2023 14:23

The new Curry's ones. One where they eat the instruction booklets stuffing paper into their mouths to 'digest' the info, and another where 'knowledge' of the products mean that both male and female assistants grow beards. So not funny.

In my local Curry's you're lucky to get an assistant to notice you let alone give help and advice.

In fact so many adverts are about the virtue signalling nature of their companies.

Ha! Ex post with @beachcomber70

(X not ex)

MalibuBetty · 14/10/2023 14:24

The Crown Paint ones with the knobheads singing stupid songs

Neriah · 14/10/2023 14:25

Daisy.
The advert designed by a man who thinks that more than one word in the script will confuse women....

AtmosAtmos · 14/10/2023 14:26

Haribo

Ceebeegee · 14/10/2023 14:26

The Tesco one with the separated parents that have a BBQ and they implication is that a Tesco bbq will get divorced parents back together again. Rage !!!

funbags3 · 14/10/2023 14:27

The celebrity perfume ads. Cannot stand them Especially the J Depp one.

@Neriah It makes them look deranged.

😂

Maybe they can buy the next advert and alternate morning after pill and pregnancy supplements

SilverGlitterBaubles · 14/10/2023 14:28

Tena lady's or anything sanitary related.
Ditto vagisan
Just so unnecessary and undignified

Lovesocksie · 14/10/2023 14:29

Not exactly the rage but sadness. The one that has all the school kids saying how mental health is declining and you should talk to your parents.

Brilliant message, but no help for the poor kids once they’ve opened up and need more than a chat.

dottyshihtzu · 14/10/2023 14:30

And the Noddle ad with the donkey i mute the TV.

The 'Super Noodle TASTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY' one?

There's a scramble for the remote in my house to mute that bastard when he comes on 😤

When they're deciding what they're going to do for their ads, do they just ask everyone in the meeting for ideas on the best way to completely piss off viewers?

funbags3 · 14/10/2023 14:31

@MariaVT65
If that woman is 50 then I look damn fine for my age.
