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.

The ring doorbell ones on the radio

M & M ad! I feel a bit uncomfortable that she is literally trying to eat him alive!

I want to spit every time I see that Amazon advert - actually, it's doing a great job reminding me that I shouldn't be shopping from them.

TeeniefaeTroon · 02/03/2020 22:47

Omg! Me too! Fecking Donna's cakes gives me the rage!

June and her parsnips. Although now, for some strange reason, I'm starting to love them:-) - the subliminal thing must be working.

If you have the misfortune to be at home during the day you're constantly told you're dying and this is how much your funeral will cost. I always mute the adverts (however, June, with these parsnips you are really spoiling us).

The one where the woman bangs about her house late at night talking about how great it is to have moved out of her parents house at 40 30 something and then cranks her sound system right up to blow the eardrums off all her neighbours.

The coffee one where the woman says “how does it work? I’m glad you asked” no-one asked. And no-one needs to ask how to put milk into coffee.

Amazon ad just makes me want cake Grin

I’m fuming with Amazon in general. Offered me a discounted prime trial to take advantage of next day delivery on the item I was buying which was cheaper than the delivery charge itself so I accepted and paid for it only to find out actually what I’m buying is not available for next day delivery and will be arriving Friday Angry

I hate the barclays ad with the woman so glad to be all grown up and responsible enough to have her own house that she comes home at night and starts blasting music at top volume . The speakers are against the party wall for heavens sake.

The Lloyd’s Bank ones - especially their By Your Side catch phrase. Whoever thought that up is deluded.
The I Buy Any Car ones come a close second

Theres ads on one of the Sky channels I keep seeing for Our time dating. The guy on it gives me the Heebie jeebies he looks so creepy.

Hate the Haribo ads where the adults have stupid children's voices

Beagle street...

It makes no sense, random family bump into random man at the beach. He says his name is “street” (also has a beagle dog, named beagle” the dog “hypnotises” the family into getting life insurance apparently. I just don’t understand it, but the dog is cute

2 iOS ones for me. Remember the vagisil one with reasons you might have an itchy fandango and the immortal line ‘what you gonna do? Scratch it in the queue?’ Wtaf I have never scratched my Fanny in a queue?why a queue?

The other was the back one where some guy leaves his scarf on the bus and the bank worker endeavours to return it. Nothing to do with actual banking or money management. I expected the tag line ‘tsb because that bitch at Clydesdale would just bin your scarf!’

The nationwide ones!!

I haven't had a tv for a year
I only realised that I hadn't seen an advert in December, when Christmas kind of sneaked up on me.
Haven't seen the Amazon advert, or most of the others mentioned here.
These days, the only ads I see are in the cinema, and as I'm usually running late, I mostly miss those too!
I don't feel at all deprived.

The one for Extra chewing gum where the guy kisses the zombie girl. 'I'm kinda hot.' No she's not!! And the stupid song is so annoying!
