Stupid adverts- I'll start...

[BitOfFun]

That Alexa one where the mother lets her teenage daughter repeatedly thump a football against the wall, lit by the thousand suns of her security lamps at 04.40 in the dead of night.

The neighbours must be getting up a petition.

I don't think I am being unreasonable. Which adverts grind your gears?

I am surprised there are no mentions of Jenny Eclair talking about her dried up vag

The one for the boiler (forget the brand). The woman is re-enacting the pottery scene from ghost and a huge fuck off boiler just creepily slides up behind her ... What the actual fuck?

Postcode lottery and that bastard song

Not sure if this is fact but DH told me that Paul McCartney wrote that song. It would explain why it's so bile inducing.

If it's "someone's knocking at door....somebody's ringing the bell.." it is indeed a Paul Macartney and Wings effort Called "let 'em in"

All perfume ads
The gormless fuckwit in wren kitchens ads

@Lincslady53 hahahaha!

I agree with the Alexa one, it annoys me so much. DH knows when it has come on as I start shouting at the TV.

Any advert that is in the form of a "poem" (Nationwide, I am looking at you).

I do love the girl with the trolley coin though - is it Natwest? Clearly not very effective if I don't know...

We didn't have "TV" until MIL moved in with us, so I was way out of the loop with adverts, and I ended up quite mesmerised at the mind boggling surrealism of some of the ads I saw.

The one that really really blew my mind, can't even remember what it was for, was all builders in Hi Viz and hard hats.....and stockings and suspenders...... I was like "Whuuuuut????" - and it's not like I'm a prude or anything as I've been involved with fetish events as part of live performance so believe me I've seen alot of oddness..... it was just so incongruous and I was unable to fathom why it was considered a good idea? because if the product doesn't spring to mind surely it's a waste of time and money?

The Viagra one, where the guy, looking all pleased with himself, skips down the stairs and dances with his wife. He's just DTD and got out of bed WITH HIS SOCKS ON!

I don't watch many adverts - but the supermarket trolley kid one is Natwest and it's sooooo DD1 it's hilarious (only she'd not have given the bloody coin back)!

Dacia Duster just for murdering a good Queen song. Likewise Flash.

Thought of another one - the Jennifer Lawrence perfume one where she's pratting around in a swimming pool and then fountains water from her mouth. It makes me cringe and cross - I spent years telling my DCs how unhygienic it was.

And the Virgin media ad with the girl who has her face glued to a screen all the time, and all the adults are standing nodding their head in time to the music.

Thankfully they've taken my pet hate off - the Deliveroo advert with the woman ostensibly delivering loads of different takeaways - 'Greek Salad, no carbs before Marbs ay Karen?!'

Aaaaaaaarrrrrrgh

But equally cannot stand any adverts for funeral plans, over 50's plans etc.

And the charity, tugging on the heartstrings ones.

Arghhh the postcode lottery is the worst but more due to the horrendous song, he has the worst voice ever.

The virgin one with its lasers and seal is a close second.. it’s so pointless, I actually want to cancel my subscription with them because of that ridiculous advert.

'But how do you keep your mouth healthy?'

You stay the fuck away from me, love.

Bold (to the tune of Spandau Ballet's Gold)

The one parodying the pottery scene in Ghost but it's a boiler behind her. Had to ask DH if he'd slipped something in my tea the first time I saw that.

I don't even watch much live TV other than sport but I forget to forward the breaks a lot. It drives DH nuts.

The bloody Jane plan one where some insipid bint sits on a stall making weird interpretive dance arm movements to demonstrate her wonderful extortionate diet plan. Fuck. Off.

Weird couples who lie on their mattresses stroking them. And sleeping on the bare mattress.

But hate the cool young people jamming and grooving, impromptu partying in the launderette.

Can't believe no one else (apart from me) mentioned the Peloton advert!!!

peloton makes me want to puke.

*peloton makes me want to puke

Yes!

The Oral B one that seems universally hated. "Bum! Hips! Heart!" She doesn't know Oral B made a toothpaste and she can't eat a fucking apple either.

Yes to the PP who said the boiler scene from Ghost re-enactment. Wtf?

Equally disturbing is that M&M one with the woman having an affair or secret snack in bed with a giant M&M (and the other one is in the wardrobe - perv)

The woman who clearly lives in a terrace house but has bought it herself so she's stacked it full of speakers.

The Jennifer Lawrence perfume one - ruins a posh dress by diving in the pool. Can't decide whether shes wearing red lipstick or no lipstick and she tries to grab a jellyfish!

The woman's voice on the Viking Cruise advert is so annoying.

I hate the Trivago one, the Alexa one and the funeral one where he snatches the iPad off the poor kid without so much as a please may I.

I do love the pound coin one, that girls face is so expressive! She is bossing it and she knows it 😆

So pleased to see my hatred of the Oral B one is shared by many. “I didn’t know Oral B made toothpaste!!!!!!!!” Well, durrr whatever you stupid woman with a fridge full of peppers.

Well how weird is that - the funeral plan one (royal London) has just come on and they’ve changed it. The girl is stroking a dog and the iPad is on the table! No snatching any more.

Maybe they’ve taken note of our feedback!
