Most hated adverts

Maybe not AIBU, but I’ve got to get this off my chest.
I’m catching up on Facebook and if I have to see that advert for Louis Vuitton with the vapid, slack jawed woman strolling around looking at art, I’m going to scream.
Other adverts for my hit list include
Cinch with Rylan and his massive gnashers
Go Compare
Those bloody meerkats
Kevin Bacon EE adverts
What happened to the lovely adverts with kittens jumping out of a bag of chocolate digestives or the Guinness ‘tick follows rock’?
What are your most hated (or most loved)?

"Someone's knocking at the door, somebody's ringing the bell!" Bloody postcode lottery.

Pampers poonami. So grim and the child’s staring face is so creepy.

'Hy-uh-luh-ron-ic acid'

We're all so thick we need it spelling out.

The Lindor one where the woman slowly unwraps the chocolate, pulls her sleeves up coyly, nibbles at the outside of it. Just fucking eat it.

Every time this comes on DH says "Just shove it in love" - I must get a box and caress slowly nibble them... 😈

The Stacy Dooley hair colour one, something about Stacy does….has me scrambling for the remote

Oh yes, with her desperately trying to look sexy. Who decided to put her on a pedestal?!

The one for incontinence pads where she’s doing yoga and says she’s letting it all go

l

Yup. And I am of an age where I might need a bit of a liner but would definitely give up any hobby that induced a full-on bladder emptying. I would go to the GP and push very hard for some sort of intervention.

Anybody know if that annoying advert, BUM! HIPS! where shes working out, is still going. I know how to keep my heart healthy, but how do I keep my teeth healthy? Grrrrr.😡

The Nationwide adverts with the shitty poetry and speeches. Awful.

This

I am also, personally, fed up of the Haribo adverts and ALL of the Nationwide ones

Thefriendlymoth · 24/07/2022 19:57

Uber Eats, where the delivery guy dramatically announces food like he’s delivering a speech, whilst everyone looks inspired and nodding, before unpacking a table food of unsquashed, tasty looking food that has clearly never seen the inside of an Uber delivery bag. I don’t know why is gives me irrational rage.

I agree with a lot On here that I don't like, however I love the perfume one at Christmas where they are dancing and the backing track sings "we are on each others team". It's the way they look at each other at the end

I find that one helpful😳

Any ad where a mega rich celeb states they use a cheap product bought off the shelf. No they don't. Do they think we are stupid or something? Do they really think we believe that Holly Willoughby, Davina McCall, Stacey Dooley etc bleach/dye their own hair at home in the bathroom? Aye right!

esgee · 25/07/2022 09:53

Oh and,
'strings and things' cheese one,

Joanna Lumley staes many times in interviews that she uses Astral cream , there's no reason not to believe her ?

But yes the hair dye adverts , I don't think for one second that they're in their bathrooms squeezing a bottle of box dye on their heads .

Ooooooooooooooooooooo.....
Fuck off.

That really makes me laugh for some reason!

I think it's for Total Jobs.

A really annoying 20-something American girl, telling her English grandmother, over zoom or something, "Granny! I got the job!" Then there's this really cringy back and forth, other a CRYSTAL clear internet connection.

This it gives me the rage.

Agree about the Cinch ads, Omaze, Marc Jacob's Daisy, Flash (why do they have to change the dogs owner for every new ad?)
