To detest the Always Protect advert?

[cantstandmenow]

The hand gestures, the way she says "super absorbent cooore", the way she "feels pretty" like a five year old, and the way she looks at he camera! Just everything about it. Then I feel bad for her for how much she annoys me! Uuuurgh.

Any adverts you have an irrational hatred of?

That Sanex one with the ballet dancer. She looks weird, staring at the camera like she's a psychopath.

The Always advert is dubbed from the US original, which makes it seem even worse.

HATE the viagra one !!! the beard, appears to be wearing socks in bed and the dodgy dancing.
and anything that involves that nicole 'i've got yoghurt on my nose again' scheringer [?] ffs i feel really now !!!

Three words. Gladstone fucking Brooks.

Oh and MandM's. Yes, we get the gist. We know Scott's home early. Can we have a new ad now please?

Any go compare advert. His stupid moustache. Also the flash one. I have to mute them both

"Someone's knocking at the door"
Fuck off. I'm not letting you and your stupid song in!

Guess what, I'M OVER FORTY AND I DON'T NEED TO FUCKING WHISPER THAT FACT.

And I'd never buy your shampoo solely because of that advert.

Recklessruby I agree with the Flash one. Sets my teeth on edge. Was wondering when the postcode lottery one would make an appearance!!

The Flash one where the bloke looks like he has an orgasm when he grabs the bottle out of thin air he appears regularly in West End musicals I understand
And no love, those peach coloured paper knickers are NOT pretty.

I was just bitching to DH about the Always ad. It's the way she says "pretty" and the fact she keeps repeating it.

EVERY PERFUME ADVERT. What are they thinking? They are ALL so NAFF!
And the aftershave one where Johnny Depp walks into the desert with a shovel. I remember watching an old film where people were stranded in a desert. A guy left the camp to walk off into the sand with a shovel. A woman asked him where he was going. He said “don’t ever ask a man where he’s going when he walks into the desert with a shovel”. So, when JD walks off 8nto that desert, all I can think of is that he’s going for a sh*t, and that’s not going to sell any aftershave......

And the fucking finger clicking above the pad. Just why??? It makes me irrationally angry

There’s a billion women on this planet and no 2 are the same so why would their pads be the same? THEN SHOW 4 pads! Surely we need a billion different pads. All that does is make me shout at the tv. DH hen pointed out its the same pad in different sizes and now I have to turn it over.

The ones where people are talking to each other about funeral plans....most recent one a mum & dad talking to pregnant daughter about how they wanted to look after her when they go..gives me the rage for some reason

Oh god I hate that one. Way to kill the atmosphere at a baby shower by talking about funeral plans
Also any about beagle street, the pushy wife who is like ‘sort out your insurance NOW’

Flashingbeacon YES!! I shout at the billions of individual women but all have 1 of 4 styles of vag.

The other one is the 'fanny magnet' one that says something vague about may be helping with the menopause whilst saying it does fuck all in the small print on the screen

The one where the women are in an exercise class bouncing on trampolines and they all have an 'oops' moment. The whole class pisses themselves? Why couldn't they just have one woman say it not make out any woman of a certain age will piss herself if she jumps. Really grates on me

That one where the woman is gushing over how pretty her bladder-leak protection pants are - because that's always going to be your main concern for functional underwear that nobody else is going to see anyway, isn't it and they don't actually look in any way at all pretty

Also, has anybody seen the advert for the equity release company where they all sing Right Said Fred (the Bernard Cribbins song, that is - not "I'm too sexy for equity release") with a few of the lyrics changed to equity-release-based ones? Can't decide if I hate it or love it in a watch-through-your-fingers kind of way. I hope those actors (or are they actual employees?!) were paid a shedload in exchange for their very shame.

Agree with @nellieellie. Every single perfume/aftershave advert drives me nuts + there will be millions of them on now in the run up to Christmas

Oh and MandM's. Yes, we get the gist. We know Scott's home early. Can we have a new ad now please?

YY to this. If I had previously bought M&Ms, I would deliberately stop doing so purely out of annoyance at this endlessly-repeated rubbish. And what are they actually trying to say anyway? Either that her nasty controlling husband doesn't allow an independent adult to decide when she wants to eat some chocolate or, even worse, that she's somehow having a secret sexual liaison with some (albeit anthropomorphised) chocolate - which her husband finds deeply threatening to his manhood. Say whaaaat?!?!

wakeupfromyourdreamandscream yy to this. I hate the expression on the women's faces - especially the last two. I...just....had....a....whoops.....moment. Arghhhhh!

The ones where people are talking to each other about funeral plans....most recent one a mum & dad talking to pregnant daughter about how they wanted to look after her when they go..gives me the rage for some reason

"Aw, my friends and family are all just soooo lovely. DSis got a sweet little personalised babygro, Cathy gave us a voucher for one last pre-baby romantic meal out, Auntie Jean has promised to knit baby a special snuggly blanket. And, look, there's the graven alabaster urn and lockable metal cash tin from Mum & Dad...."

Also any about beagle street, the pushy wife who is like ‘sort out your insurance NOW’

"Ah, thanks, love - I'm so happy that you made time to do that and protect our family's future should the very worst happen. Now, eat your dinner - it's my delicious own-recipe mushroom risotto. No, it's fine, I'm not hungry myself - you eat it all...."

I hated the beagle street ones even more when they had the talking dog!
