I’m on about the one in the warehouses. Pretending it’s all lovely, flexible, ideal working conditions. And something about the way that Scottish woman says “URRGGG DONNA’S CAKES”.

Gives me the rage.

Sky Vegas, the guy with the fake American accent, it really annoys me

JuanSheetIsPlenty · 02/03/2020 21:52

Any ad where they CGI babies mouths go make it look like they’re talking or singing. There’s one on at the minute with a baby in a cot talking with it’s toothless gums. Not sure what it’s for but It’s so disconcerting.

CtrlU · 02/03/2020 21:53

GO COMPAAAAARE - that advert drive me nuts!

The compare the meerkat advert. So boring

CtrlU · 02/03/2020 21:54

Then again - the meerkat ads are funnyat first, but get unfunny real fast

Yumsnet · 02/03/2020 21:54

I’m with you on DONNA’s CAAAKES!

Please God, no.

missmouse101 · 02/03/2020 21:55

That twatty Dunelm one with the smug family.

Youngatheart00 · 02/03/2020 21:56

@Yumsnet it’s maddening isn’t it. One of these days I’m going to put my fist through the tv screen Envy

Some other horrors on here too. Wasn’t the latest Go Compare ad reported for making light of a serious road accident?

The Alexa advert where the mum doesn't mind being woken up at half four in the morning by her daughter and even puts the floodlights on, waking all the neighbours in the process.

houselikeashed · 02/03/2020 21:57

Hips, bum, heart, - bloody toothpaste woman. Really grates on me.

mrscatmad31 · 02/03/2020 22:08

I also hate the Amazon advert for the exact same reason! Glad it's not just me

HelgaHere1 · 02/03/2020 22:13

Those Amazon traitors - working for those non- taxpaying baxxxxxds , and pretending you love the job, double traitors!!

Sparklesocks · 02/03/2020 22:15

I roll my eyes when that amazon ad just casually says ‘of course we have targets!’ like warehouse workers haven’t reported peeing in bottles at times because they’re too scared to take a break...

Yumsnet · 02/03/2020 22:15

I also really dislike the M&M’s ones - man comes home & finds wife in bed ‘cheating’ with the M&M’s.

And the other one - annoying woman in a car telling M&M’s in the back to behave.

Stupid, not funny. Crap.

I can't stand the vicks vaporub ad. You see the lady rubbing Vicks on her child, fair enough. But then you see her rubbing it into the chest of what is presumably her oh. Every time I see it I think to myself "rub it in yourself you lazy shit! You're a grown man!"

Youngatheart00 · 02/03/2020 22:21

Yeah. I highly doubt they have 2 minutes between step ladder trips to eat one of Donna’s bastarding caaaaaaakes.

There's another thread running about adverts you hate, I don't know if this one is on it but have a look there are loads that people hate.

TaighNamGastaOrt · 02/03/2020 22:27

@houselikeashed

That feckin oral-B advert-the longer version has that stupid bird simpering at her dentist 'I didn't know Oral B made toothpaste'

well, wtf did you think it made..... jet engines? Oral?

and that wanky coffee advert - nescafe azera? where they're in a launderette and the boy with a guitar starts playing along to the sound of the trainers in the machine?
come on to fuck.

Youngatheart00 · 02/03/2020 22:27

@coconuttelegraph cheers I’ll seek it out!

The Hilton Doubletree. Why do the husband and child join the mother in a hotel down the road?

DoTheNextRightThing · 02/03/2020 22:31

McGuigan Wine 🙄

GuineaSomethingGood · 02/03/2020 22:32

CtrlU oh I love the meerkat ones. They could do with some new ones now though. I am sure they could make some more.

GuineaSomethingGood · 02/03/2020 22:34

M and Ms adverts

I have always hated M and Ms adverts. Love M and Ms (esp peanut) but hate the ads.

Yeah, re: the OralB ones- doesn't everyone know they do dental care products? I used to hate that one with the electric toothbrush and the girl cleaning her teeth "power to the people." I can't even say WHY I hated it.

JudyCoolibar · 02/03/2020 22:35

All those incontinence pad adverts that suggest every woman who has given birth is constantly leaking like a tap without a washer.

drigon · 02/03/2020 22:36

Any advert populated by smug gits. Off the top of my head: the gingery beardy guy striding around for some company, one about a door camera where a guy in the supermarket confronts a potential burglar coming up to his house, also, naff one where smug dad and son play draughts with Oreos.
