Adverts that are annoying you at the moment?

I really can't stand that Glade stone advert for the supposed hilarity of picking a stone up from the supermarket.

KFC have adopted a similar tactic with their 'no thrills' latest meal. Most burger adverts don't use choirs, husky-voiced narrators and all that shite anyway.

OT: KFC had a competition to name their new chicken meal recently. I suggested 'The Chi-king Meal' which was rejected. They went with 'The Chicken King Meal'. Hmmmmm.

In their defence, Chicken King Meal is better, even though it's rather unimaginitive.

What about the Chicki-tita?

FUCKING HELL. I think the 30 second edit is somehow even WORSE.

GRAAHAH *flips table*
 
That's diabolical, and also unbelievable because Godfather 3 really IS that shit :D

As far as dating site ads go, my least favourite are the ones for this lot:

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BFOLP6d2CpA&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BFOLP6d2CpA&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

To be fair my qualms are more with the company than the ads, but the way they ALWAYS mention "values" being a big thing annoys me. The reason they do that is because the site's owned by an evangelical Christian LOON, and they had to be taken to court before they'd provide a (separate) site that allowed gays. There are also reports of people being rejected from the site with no explanation after filling in their initial personality questionnaire. Presumably for having the wrong VALUES :o

So it's a Christian dating site that doesn't mention that fact in any ads, bars gays and will KICK YOU OUT if you aren't pious enough for them - the fact they make enough money to have even LAUNCHED in the UK makes me so angry I could shit :evil:

What a fucking STATE.
 
I hate the Slim Fast advert with that supposedly stand-up comedian BITCH who "just wants to get into a bridesmaid dress in THREE weeks". Shut up you FAT Cunt. You should've just laid off the cream cakes earlier then dumbass!

It's almost as bad as the "Hey Jude" Trafalgar Square ones!!. I remember when there was a 4 minute version of that ad, which ITV said "Here follows a feature length presentation!" only for that to come on with me thinking it was for some charity, but no- T frickin' Mobile!!.
 
I know they are ancient and not quite adverts in the traditional sense, but I am SO SO SO SO SICK of the adverts for whatever company currently sponsors Friends on E4. I don't even recall the company, which shows just how effective they are.

The worst is the one where they're supposedly interviewing the Elvis impersonator, but they obviously couldn't be arsed paying the royalties to have him sing an Elvis song, so it's just about 10 seconds of tuneless yelling.

Is it Mars Planets?

UGH @ Nintendo adverts. They look so nicely made and everything, but the 'real families' just DON'T WASH.

Also, is Vanessa Hudgens aware that they are completely re-dubbing her voice (and the product) for that Neutrogena advert?

WHILE I'M AT IT, Tesco Mobile can fuck RIGHT OFF. I mean I'm all for taking the piss out of mobile adverts, but I hate the use of meek 'normal people' in adverts

I genuinely wanted die in childbirth.
 
The Tesco advert with the Jane Horrocks voiceover and her ridiculous way of saying "sorted" does my head in purely because of the way she pronounces it. Nobody says 'sorted' like that in real life and certainly not somebody from Rawtenstall. I imagine it's her version of a "phone voice".
 
Everything on ITV Player. I've been catching up on Emmerdale for weeks now and I have to sit through tons of adverts for SIMPLETONS - the worst being that dreadful one for the price comparison site with Omid Djalili in SWINGING a pole around in somebody's house and breaking everything. It's PAINFULLY thick :evil:

Also that one for BT I think with the split screen of three people playing games consoles where the girl randomly performs an ear splitting SHRIEK - ghastly
 
This one seems to be making a comeback -

If i wanted advice on anti-aging creams, i would definitely ask death's mother Fiona Phillips
 
I dont remember what it's for, some baby thing. But this annoying woman who speaks quite un-accented (if quite TWEE) English, but then says BOOMPED BOOMS (translation: bumped bums)

I think it's just the AMOUNT of times I hear it. It's like she's showing off that she's got an accent (=real)
 
The one with the diahorreah rhyme. I loved it and was clapping my hands and squealing until the point that a glum-faced african boy turned up pontificating about his sister dying of diahorreah.

It's for WaterAid. Schoolkids come on and do the rhymes like "when you're sitting there for hours, and it doesn't smell of flowers - diahorreah, diahorreah" one by one then the african boy comes on and spoils it with something like "diahorreah killed my sister and I'm really going to miss her - diahorreah, diahorreah".

here it is

OMG :D I'm sorry that's really horrible but still, couldn't they find a way of delivering this message without making it so hilarious? The african kid is obviously an actor, otherwise that's MONSTROUS
 
That Drench water thing with the guy with a head like a Rubik's Cube while he's listening to OOPS UPSIDE YOUR HEAD and nodding along to it like it's really cool. If I heard anyone blaring that out of their earphones I'd SMACK THEM IN THE FACE.

Oh, and there's this shit Spanish beer advert on at the cinemas that goes on FOREVER with some FUGLY man on holiday with 2 girls and some fuck awful song playing over and over again. It goes "Tonight tonight, tonight tonight, I wanna be with you". Has nothing to do with the beer at all and the song is more annoying than Dance The Night Away by The Mavericks.

OK this is bugging me, that Vodafone smartphone advert where the couple are fighting and taking pictures on things to imply the other person is a twat, which is apparently all young professionals DO these days with their fancy phones.

WHO is the guy? I recognise him from something else
 
That Caroline Quentin one, I think it is for M&S?

I hate her facial expression when she says 'If you can't take the cheat then get out of the kitchen' :grr:

I do love Caz Q, her M&S ads are CRINGEWORTHY though. The one about 'liking pink because I'm a girl and that's what I like' is the worst.
