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 think the Tesco trolley girl is for Tesco bank? It would make sense if so...

Sorry - the £1 trolley girl. Jumped ahead there...

Thank you!

i think it's a chewing gum one where the guy is kissing the zombie girl???? like ???

The trolley girl is for NatWest

Lending Circle with the singing baby. Beautiful baby but creepy AF.

Oh, it's Funding Circle.

The 'so they compromised... don't compromise...' Asda ones. (One has a couple who get rescued out of a muddy bog after wanting different types of holiday.) Something about the woman's weird, sarcastic tone of voice grates on me everytime.

The women's catalogue one featuring that Lizzo song was massively overplayed on daytime TV in the run up to Christmas.

But I'll drop what I'm doing to watch the Haribo ads with adults describing sweets in kids voices, love them!

I admit I am a pedant, which may explain why I get so annoyed by the girl who 'can daughter' or 'can football'.

Ad breaks can be so judgemental too. There will be an ad for hair remover, followed by one on how to make your eyebrows look thicker, so the message is, you have too much hair! You don't have enough hair! Honestly if I took them all seriously I'd be a neurotic wreck by the time the 1st ad break is over.

I would like to suggest to the Oral B woman that she'd probably find fewer people wanting to punch her in the mouth if she wasn't so annoying. That might help her keep her mouth healthy.

I do like that living away from my parents' house gives me the freedom to shout fuck off at adverts.

I also don't like that one with Santa in his casuals. Especially at this time of year!

Martin Freeman in the Vodafone adverts talking over that woman filming the wedding. Even if the people around him hadn't heard him moaning about the cost of being a guest, surely the video will have picked it up. So either way he's being a twat.

And the current Waitrose adverts with close ups of food and enhanced sounds of cutting etc make me feel quite 🤢

Ah yes, like the chewing gum Zombie one (it took a few watches to notice the hand...) and also the Haribo ads.).

The new KFC one makes me feel sick. All
That unnecessary individual finger licking..and and kfc isn’t even all that “finger licking good” these days anyway!

Just use the bloody wet wipe!

Some 'busy' people have a lot of time spare if they actually watch and dissect the adverts, surely they're for coffee-making and loo-going!

The advert for holidays to Turkey with blonde cardboard cut out like woman at the end saying, so Turkey was ? Wow!....she is so irritating!

I admit I am a pedant, which may explain why I get so annoyed by the girl who 'can daughter' or 'can football'.

I also hate her. ‘I can daughter! I can sister!’ Can’t tell the difference between a noun and a verb though, can you, little miss oh-so-bloody clever?

That’s a weirdly patronising tone. Some might wonder why you were so ‘busy’ that you found the time to come to this thread to criticise.

Some poor people have to have sky sports news on constantly, even though it is the dullest channel in the world. I see lots of adverts.

what is it about horses and Polo mints? Does it have to be Polos

My horse (RIP) was a complete pushover for a Sharps Extra Strong.

Any ad that says "get it for free".
Its either "get it free" or "get it for nothing"

^^ This, this, this!

That does my head in. Isn't it for virgin media or sky or something?

Very irritating girl, very irritating 'family,' and a stupid and annoying tune on it. When they are all nodding/bopping their heads to the (annoying) beat at the end, it gives me the rage!

What a brilliant thread. I am.on maternity leave and am.subjected to sooooo many awful adverts.

KFC - what the cluccccck? // I have no patience at all and will switch channel. Not just mute. If you play this shit advert I will not watch your programmes.

Sun bingo - can I speak to sue? No you can't speak to sue. // Makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Really grinds my gears.

ANY over 50s plan. But especially the "cracking roast" "yeah, mums always done us proud "

The tampon string. Makes me.shudder.

Nice hat dad - where do they find.these actors?????

I just saw a Trivago ad without the smug woman. Have they finally replaced her?

@Oilyoilyoilgob me too with the protacted thing I want to slap her and why didn't they make her do it again? AND they are not pretty they look like paper pant nappies.

Oh and the over 40 whispering for shampoo- fuck off there is nothing wrong with being over 40.
And all those bloody perfume ads where the women are practically naked but the men have clothes on in after shave ads.
It's all bollocks really isn't it?

The twee Dairy Milk adverts when the woman says "there's a glass and a half in every one". Her tone makes me want smash things.

Another one - the Muller Light one with the athlete. "I run - I run - I dip..."
