It makes my teeth itch with irritation every time it comes on

Wayfair - "But Kate, what if I want to be fancy?" Said no-one. Ever. Especially when doing some weird exercise routine.

Come on Lorraine, you really don't need the money that much, do you?

Frizzcat Just started choking on my apple after snorting when I was reading your comment

YouBumder · 23/02/2019 16:18

Oh god I hate the flash advert. The kitchen is hideous and the singing dog is creepy

FoulMouthedMotherFigure · 23/02/2019 16:25

The Sky Bingo adverts with the patronising commentary-style voiceover - "Oh no, wot a catastrophe! Look at all them crisps everywhere!" - makes me want to rip my own ears off and eat them to get away from hearing it.

ALongHardWinter · 23/02/2019 16:35

What did she think Oral B made then?!

JuniorAsparagus · 23/02/2019 18:23

I love the Flash advert.Blush

MaMaMaMySharona · 23/02/2019 18:43

Has no one mentioned that rice advert?? Where they’re singing “you say potato, I say potaaato” and cooking what looks like the most bland and grim meal of rice, chicken and peppers? WITH NO SAUCE?? Give me strength

Pigletthedog · 23/02/2019 18:52

I just wanted to say for fuck's sake thanks to all of you who've commented about the oral b ad. I hated it but you pointed out things I hadn't noticed before and now it's even more annoying!
Fucking peppers! Apples the wrong way! Same colour hair!
It's been on Comedy Central about 1000 times today as well Angry

Tartanwallpaper · 23/02/2019 19:23

For me the most annoying is the wayfair one where Lorraine Kelly implies her friend has shit taste

agentdaisy · 23/02/2019 19:46

There's a special place in hell for the stupid oral b woman with her stupid sodding fake twinkly laugh.

The space next to her is reserved for the woman in the sun bingo ads she looks and sounds bloody ridiculous. All its done is ensure that I'll never use their site even if my life depends on it.

The over 50s cover ones are driving me nuts as the seem to be played every five minutes. I know they're adverts but they seem so bloody fake with wooden actors. I can't act my way out of a wet paper bag but I'm Oscar worthy compared to some of the people in these adverts.

StillCoughingandLaughing · 23/02/2019 19:52

Wayfair - "But Kate, what if I want to be fancy?"

In other words, ‘This old fat might do for the likes of you, but I wouldn’t be seen dead with it!’

Nelumbo · 23/02/2019 20:09

Ha ha this thread has made me laugh.
The oral b advert is bloody annoying, but I must say the wayfair one and the Barclaycard one are worse!

FuerzaAreaUruguay · 23/02/2019 20:11

That Oral B woman has a three dick gob.

It's beyond endurance... It's every damn set of adverts this toothpaste rubbish... "I asked my dentist which is better an electric toothbrush or a manual one....? " And then at the end licking her top teeth from east to west and doing a ridiculous nod at herself in the mirror!!!
It makes me want to smash the screen... And that other stupid bitch shouting whatever it is "hips, bum"... and "I didn't know Oral-B even made a toothpaste.."
...'even' !? Really??
What else you half wit?
And how do you keep your mouth healthy...?
You can stay healthy by shutting the fuck up.
Give me strength!!
I tell you there's no end in sight to these adverts.
They must be loaded these companies putting these on over and over again.. and they obviously don't care about their customer base otherwise they wouldn't fuck everybody off day and night over and over again...
It makes me want to grab all the toothpaste tubes and squish 'em all to a pulp.
I came across this thread when I googled how irritated these Oral-B ads make me feel.. too much.. all this toothpaste rubbish over and over again... Probably missed the boat at this late stage on the conversation but jeez does it feel good to vent!!!
OMG!!! It's just come on again!
Right as I'm typing this... That's both of them now.. for crying out loud...Straight up...
Her with the fridge full of peppers who pretends to bite an apple with an unrealistic crunch sound going on...no.... You don't like apples like that and you know it!
.. All I want to do is watch a film...
... I don't want to sit here finishing off sentences... Like when the other one said "I asked my dentist which is better an electric toothpaste or a manual one?".. and then (me finishing her sentence for her by saying) -"the dentist then punched me in the face saying I was too annoying for my own good and to stop being a twat".
... And - how annoying for crying out loud, the stretching your arm out at that angle making your finger look like it belongs to a giant pointing at the tiny head of an electric toothbrush.
Just stop grinning.. nobody actually wants to look at your bloody teeth particularly when you lick them from left to right ..who does that in the mirror licking from left to right like that, what a freak.. Oh thanks Oral-B..for nothing.
(Yeah I know it's only a script and an actor... Who cares? Not me.)
I asked my advertiser which is best for advertising my toothpaste, nodding freaks showing horse gum or shimmying health freaks shouting bum?

BethPorter · 28/04/2019 01:37

I think it is an advert prepared for another contrty and dubbed

justarandomtricycle · 28/04/2019 01:41

Wait, three dick gob? How have I not heard that one before?

Stopping that nonsense would be the first step to keeping your mouth healthy, surely.

JocastaElastic · 28/04/2019 07:34

The advert that has me shouting st the telly is the one for the razor specially designed for a woman’s “delicate body-parts.” They’re not made of porcelain! Is the advertising agency under the impression that a woman risks shattering her fanny every time she sits down?

EmpressLesbianInChair · 28/04/2019 08:21

I hate the Vax one where Anna Richardson says, 'We spray, we sponge, we wipe but what about our carpets?' In a very doom laden way...

This thread is making me think that sticking to iplayer & Netflix was a good move. But isn’t that the point where we do the Shake ‘n’Vac and put the freshness back?

Aeroflotgirl · 28/04/2019 08:34

Yes this advert gets on my nerves, how stupid is she that she did not know Oral B one of the biggest brands for dental products did not make toothpaste, doh.

punter · 28/04/2019 08:43

Just seen the Simon Cowell advert for something to do with Barclays. Most ridiculous set up ever with him supposedly in the Arctic. The man cannot speak coherently, no idea of the advert message, must have cost thousands - wtf?

Bravelurker · 28/04/2019 13:49

I laugh every time that ad comes on because I can hear my mum screaming and swearing at the telly, she really really hates it. 'Mum, why don't you just mute it or turn the telly over?' 'Because I forget to turn it back and then I miss my show'.

Bravelurker · 28/04/2019 13:55

I'm going to show my mum this thread, I think it might help Grin

goose1964 · 28/04/2019 13:58

I always alter the last line to I didn't know dentists used toothpaste.

She is so annoying

Foxyloxy1plus1 · 28/04/2019 14:05

Car adverts.

No one is going to drive their brand new Audi into a swimming pool. The Jaguar one. And the Golf one. And all of them.

The only decent one ever, was the Skoda made of cake. At least you could eat it after.

The toddler singing Proud Mary whilst her dad looks perplexed that the engine management system light has come on. And he doesn’t have to wait for the AA and the car is fixed in seconds.
