...to ask for your advert 'hates'???

[isitreallynecessary]

The television ones!

What adverts get you riled and why?

My top 3 are:

1. toilet roll!
Who is NOT buying this stuff, really? I know the bog roll defenders will say the companies are just promoting their own brands, but don't we just buy the best brand on offer?

2. Watch this fab new show...
...on a different channel, that you don't get. I have been caught out on this one sooo many times of an evening

3. The 'I use this and it is sooo great'
I never believe any of the actors/actresses because they always look so wooden, bored, falsely gleeful or just plain crazy. Does anyone believe them?

Now go mn, give me your own hates!!!

that one for laxatives where they use a handbag stuffed with possessions as a metaphor for a bowel backed up with stale shit.

Oh yes those 'Mother Nature' bollocks ads for Tampax that suggest i may wish to play in a rock band during my monthlies instead of being laid up on sofa with hot water bottle or (more usually) wishing I was laid up on sofa, NOT wishing I was playing in rock band!!

The Pantene advert where her hair used to be "meh" and now it's "helloooo".

The advert where they take mirrors off women for a month (so believable) and when one of them sees herself she claps her hands and dances like an actual toddler.

Basically adverts where they pretend not to be scripted and grown ass women act like kids. Nope.

The Andrex one last year really got on my tits.... How clean do you feel? Yeah thanks for that while I'm eating.

You'll wonder where the yellow went
when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent!

I often think of that one - with the tune, of course.

What I'm not keen on (none of them, really) is any advertisement where domestic chores shew only women doing the vacuuming, washing up, cooking (yes, I know the Knorr gravy one is a man), feeding little ones, mopping floors, cleaning windows, making beds, changing nappies, school run.

Are advertisers unaware that women actually go out to work. Talk about stereotyping....

Peter Andre in Icelanf. Fuck off you bellend.

Grrr...

Payday loan sharks

Funeral plans

Online gambling sites

That one where the smartass man lounges among gorillas for some unfathomable reason

So-obviously-dubbed-on-knock-on-wood sound effects (Yes, you, OakFurnitureLand)

SECRET ESCAPES!! FUCK OFF!

Tena with the matching dresses at the party.

The Trivago woman. Stop talking in that stupid breathy voice.

The Carphone Warehouse adverts - scrimper doobadoobadoo ah, argh. I reach for the mute button in a panic every time that one comes on.

MacDonald's: 'Stuart burns the midnight oil, and it burns bright for him.'

Clearly he has no real life /friends because he is choosing to spend his time prettifying a powerpoint. He ENJOYS his soulless job in waste management and when he leaves the darkened office, long after everyone else has he goes to MacDonalds. Maybe it's all he can afford. He works alone. He eats alone. It is a very, very sad advert.

YY to whispery adverts.

Also I have an irrational hatred of furniture sale ads, where they all now seem to say the prices as four-nine-nine rather than four hundred and ninety nine like they used to. It really really winds me up and I'm not sure why.

Any baby advert (SMA - you're doing great! ) and all the online gambling ads which make it look all glamorous and James Bondy when in reality it's probably saddos sitting around in their pants.

There's a recent holiday advert that substitutes 'booking' where the advertisers assume someone would swear. I hate it. Never wanted to complain about an advert before but I want to for this one.

Every single bingo advert

Clara yes!!

I saw it ....awful

Oh yes, I hate that one, claracluck. Think they are so clever. I expect it will be banned, like the one for Plenty kitchen towel where he asks "So, you got Plenty wet yet?" (although that does make me laugh).

The Rice Krispie Squares adverts are the most annoying! That and when Michael Winner was still kicking about with his 'calm down dear' bollocks.

Ads for mascara when it's bloody obvious they're wearing false eyelashes!

Also the sentimental ones for MacDonalds... Evil.

And Coca Cola, likewise!

The new Cadbury Creme Egg ad is creepy as well.

Another vote for the dancing women in the 'sensitive' bladder ad. Because that's what women do all the time!

And what is all this 'sensitive' bladder nonsense either. Just call it what it is FFS.

All ads with bad grammar! "Live life fearless". Using more than one '?' or '!'.
