To get irritated by Haribo advert?

[mariamin]

The adverts where adults are shown speaking in the voices of young children irritate me so much. What adverts really irritate you?

According to my mother and several of her ex-advertising friends - yes annoying sticks in the brain (so we remember them).

She personally likes the Meercats one (which I think is getting old now) and Direct Line mafia boss one.

Ah Super so they do know what they are doing. Do you think they have a focus group and if everyone writes down "most annoyingthing i've ever seen " they think " yes! that's the one!"

They do have focus groups too.

I'm not sure about annoying but they want it to stick in your head. Doesn't make it a great advert.

And if you see 'extras' in adverts who you think aren't model looking - well a lot of the time agencies use their own staff (they generally used to (not sure now) employ good looking people) as extras in adverts. My mum was in one for Carling Black label under the mistletoe, I think there were 2 others but forgot them... and also for stills as practice ones... so there you go then...!

Oh thank god for HonourableKortonRepresentative. I was beginning to think I was the only person alive who actually thought the Winner Bingo bloke was hot in a weird way.

I need help don't I?

Dido me too.

I think Mr Tidy Bales is used to get us women all hot under the collar over a man hoovering. Twat.

Toothpaste ones where the actors gently rub a toothbrush with no toothpaste over their white, shiny teeth.

Kinder.

All gambling ads.

The ones with the breathy voiceovers, esp at Christmas time when they murder decent songs.

I'd like to know what happened to all of Parky's Parker pens. It's just a free pen for enquiring now...

I don't know fackin but I imagine he's been asked many interesting questions in his life but that isn't one of them..!

PayPal "not simple"
The stupid "get.....cheeeesecake" advert
Malteasers advert where the irritating woman is saying "oh go on"

Has Aldi been mentioned? My favourite things are Rob Lowe and Thorntons Viennese Truffles. And they don't sell them. Plus the fridge at the end is unnecessarily large.

The Carlsberg one that uses the music from Dirty Dancing. Every time it comes on I get excited and think "Ooh! Dirty Dancing is on!!" but it's just a stupid ad.

The Tayto one. UK folk may not have seen this but it's very, very creepy. What kind of gobshite runs out the house without his trousers on then accepts them, no questions asked, from A GIANT FUCKING PLASTIC CRISP. Freaks me out.

All gambling adverts.
Same applies to the bloody PPI claim and "accident claim" adverts. How can anyone not know about those nonsense services these days?

And as for that pissing Trivago advert... I want to cut off his hipster bun and throttle her gormless neck. Yy to the pp who said that of you can't book a hotel as a seing functioning adult then you shouldn't be allowed a passport.

There are more but I need to calm down to bath the baby.

'There's so much fun in Toffifee ', said in a really creepy, smug voice.

Is there? Is there really?! And who buys Toffifee anyway?

And the yogurt one where Gok talks about digestive evacuation or some other bollocks phrase that means have a poo.

I love the haribo adverts. The one in the cinema especially

I understand the perverse logic of making an ad dreadful so it's memorable and I can only speak for myself here but if I was wanting a hotel in Venice the Very Last Place I'd look would be Trivago. If their judgement is so skewed re advertising then I don't believe they know squat about hotels!
And all you poor deluded loons and the Winner Bingo bloke? Please. Get help!

Dermot o Leary and his activia advert. Are there really yogurt awards!?

I'm so gonna tweet him, Hellkitty. I mean, a Parker pen is one thing but a biro?

I don't get the Gisele Chanel advert. Just... What??? Eh?

I thought the Nicole Kidman Chanel one was crap, but this is worse.

I like the Haribo ones.

DS3 used his pocket money to buy a packet of Toffiffee or however the fuck it's spelt, on the basis of the advert being always on.

Haha, so glad I'm not alone in my perverse crush. SistersOfPercy come join me hiding in this dark corner. I have his stripping ad on a loop, we can watch it together.

Oh, I also have a robot Brian toy. I heart him. I am a lost cause I think

I have A Brian as well honourable I think perhaps we may be MN twins

I have tried and failed to find the actor who plays Mr winner, however, it's something that others have apparently searched for so we are not alone!

Sanderson Jones

(I was too ashamed earlier to admit to having looked him up too)

You know the new McDonalds one with the old bloke & the young bloke juxtapositioned?

I watched that in awe wondering what it would be about, what was the message? It was so good.

And then, it was for McDonalds. face palm
