Maybe I’m getting old and grumpy, but loads of adverts are annoying the hell out of me these days.

[quote AnnieSnap]@GrumpyLivesInMyHouseNow “Jonny Depp and his fucking Sausage” This sounds very interesting. What have I missed? 😍[/quote]
You've missed the tight trousers, I think.

@LonglegsMumtheBlacksmith

I don't think it's on anymore, but the one with the woman saying "I didn't even know Colgate made toothpaste" and laughing?! What the fuck did you think Colgate make you dumb bitch?! Plus she has a fridge full of red peppers. Makes my blood boil.

And any perfume advert leads to me shouting "BUT WHAT DOES IT ACTUALLY SMELL LIKE?!"

That's the Oral B advert you're thinking of...

@LonglegsMumtheBlacksmith

Sorry, I was more angry about Colgate woman than I had anticipated.
It’s Oral b toothpaste not Colgate

@JohnStonesMissus
You are absolutely correct! OralB...the dumb bitch from the Oral B advert...! Oral B, well known as manufacturers of....what is it again?

This cracked me up

Daisy, Daisy Daisy

Perfect, perfect, perfect

Cinch, Cinch, Cinch

Anything that gets repeated every - single - ad - break.

By the end the evening have a list of things that I'm never, ever, going to buy.

I've no idea...not a clue :)

And then there's the earworm music that accompanies them. Thank god for catch up and downloads so you can just whizz past them.

If it’s the Johnny Depp ad I’m thinking of, I’m too busy looking at the beautiful wolves 😊

All the perfume ones!

The one that gives me the rage every time I see it is the booster campaign one, the one where Nursey is on the bus and in the shopping centre. She is in her uniform outside of the work setting but worst of all, she is holding the escalator rail with bare naked hands 😱 I wouldn’t do this pre-COVID but during COVID? My naked son isn’t going within 10cm of that germ fest!

Rosebean92liveson · 14/12/2021 17:04

But how do I keep my mouth healthy??

Dear god

bluehaze · 14/12/2021 17:15

What’s Strong With Me?

It just makes no sense.
What’s wrong with me
What’s strong about me?

Do they mean
What Strengths Do I Have?

Well find a better way to ask and it you can’t find anything catchy then just shut up!

It’s bloody stupid and I have no idea what it’s advertising but they should never have decided to repeat and repeat a totally nonsensical phrase.

TheOldRazzleDazzle · 14/12/2021 17:20

The one that intones “OH-WOAH-OH I THINK YOU’RE GONNA WANNA SEE THIS, YOU’RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS”

‘This’ being Mo Farah woodenly grinning and brushing his teeth.

No, I’m fine thanks.

caketiger · 14/12/2021 17:23

Daisy daisy sodding daisy. The dancing on the moon one with interview with a vampire vibes.

I like the fashion lights one..

redandwhite1 · 14/12/2021 17:23

The 'Very' advert and only for the super over the top woman who seems to be at the front every shot blatantly miming and her mouth being all wide and annoying - she irritates the hell out of me!!

Epic autocorrect fail at the end there @guestusername!
Youdoyoutoday · 14/12/2021 17:28

All perfume ads! Each and every single one of them!
The checkatrade ad with the guys dressed as Romans, makes no sense whatsoever.

However, 99.9% of adverts are annoying!

guestusername · 14/12/2021 17:29

🤣 I did mean naked SKIN 🤣

madisonbridges · 14/12/2021 17:33

Yeah, I also hate the shine like a diamond perfume ad. Julia Roberts has been photoshopped to within an inch of her life! She looks almost plastic.

MabelsApron · 14/12/2021 17:38

@AnnieSnap I’ve yet to find a bank that has late shifts… Wink

Seeleyboo · 14/12/2021 17:40

I have no doubts i am an awful grump. Here goes.
Verisure. Stupid stupid smug face of the woman and the blokes are just mute. Ergh.
The ooooooooooo ones.
Dominos.
Fucking Daisy ones. My daughter is called Daisy. She now answers to her middle name.

Flowertailbird · 14/12/2021 17:51

@Audacity7

TopCashback - 'The Hmmm-ingbird' Gives me the rage !!!
I want to throw my radio out of my window when this comes on. Who on earth decided that would be a good advert?
QuestionableMouse · 14/12/2021 17:55

The hotel chocolat velvetiser one.. Sick of seeing it. Was considering buying one but now I'm so peeved I'm not.

Even in shopping centres where they are open 10am to 8pm? I don’t know, just asking.

GucciBear · 14/12/2021 18:00

Any Waitrose ad starring? the irritating Ashley Jensen.
