the most annoying advert of all time

[adamhornsby]

What adverts can you really not stand, when they come on the telly?

I dont like the philips adverts, as the ding dong sounds like a doorbell. And Edith Bowman's tweedy little voice on the comet adverts.

So then, which adverts do you really hate?

[CycloneUK18]

adverts which don't show you what they are selling are pointless & extremly annoying, like the Sony Playstation 3 "this is living" adverts. The usual supermarket shop ads (tesco, morrisons, marks & spencer, asda & iceland) are taking the mickey by being on every single advert break especally at this time of year as well.

[soozmac]

there is a new ad for Lockets, which has some rather non-offensive plinky-plonky music in the background, but every 4 or 8 beats there is a really loud scream, which doesn't fit in with the music or the ad at all. It's just the oddest thing I've ever heard! Might post my own question about this and see if I'm the only one who has noticed this....

[soozmac]

Whickerman, yes, I also noticed that the child did not seem to be, um, of the same origin as the woman. Maybe it's a glimpse into the Jolie-Pitt home?

Also, the Southern Comfort ads are so cheap it's unreal. Who calls it Soco anyway? And what kind of lime juice is being used? Rose's cordial, or fresh, bitter lime-juice? If I went into my local and asked for a Soco and Lime, I'd get laughed out the place. And then barred.

Not sure whether or not I like this yet

When is a candle more than a candle? When its a Mandlecandle!

JML ads with the dodgey voice over!

[soozmac]

oh, hah, a Mandle Candle!! I saw that ad last night, and for the life of me can't work out why they named it that. Did they go through the alphabet? Bandle Candle, Dandle Candle, Fandle Candle, Gandle Candle?

Apart from the rubbish name, it looks crap too!

[tiggerblue10]

What about the cold/flue remedie ad (can't remember the product) where the guy mentions the word *SNOT*. They could have phrased it better! Mucus perhaps?

Lol

[delboy3]

"Does searching for cheaper car insurance drive you crazy?"

NO - BUT THE FKKKING ADVERTS DO!!

[soozmac]

(slow day at work, today) What about the endless ads for things to make your house smell nice? I can't stand bad odours. Um, open a window, then, for goodness sake! These fussy, OCD housewives make me nervous. Find something else to obsess over, wimmin!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
have ytou seen the one where they ask
'are you fed up with your house smelling of fish'? and the woman is sitting with her legs open lol,
then she looks at her daughter in an accusing way

[soozmac]

oh. my. god. No, I've not seen that one. Or is it the one where all the plastic fish fall from the ceiling? I'll need to pay attention the next time I see it.

[4GS]

That's the very one, watch the end scene it's hilarious

[adamhornsby]

Thats the febreeze advert isnt it?
and i dislike the picture ad
'whooo, is that thunder at your end or mine? well i hope they dont cancel football'
'Whos that'
its mike from picture, just sorting out the loan'

Oh shut up, for goodness sake, do we need to know.

The thorntons one, i dont understand, anyone else understand it?

[4GS]

Its this one here look at the last 5 seconds, (from 24-30 seconds)

[adamhornsby]

Hahaha, what have you been upto, my daughter, you smell of fish!!!

[squirrel77]

Brilliant, needed cheering up and these answers made me laugh. Ta

[Quoi]

Cant beleive nobody mentioned elephant.com with that really irritating elephant

[Skreecheeboy]

The ones that turn up in your inbox saying "Do you want to have a bigger penis" and stuff like that really get on my tits! I don't want a bigger effin penis, you trying to get me to inflict pain on people or something?!?

[Skreecheeboy]

Not just her Legend, every ex-girlfriend I've ever had too!
