Adverts that are annoying you at the moment?

Floppet said:
You seriously believe that the soundtrack to an advert should correspond with the product being advertised? How do you know that it isn't the "I think we're gonna make it" chorus lyrics that you should be listening to? Who told you that buying a product will stop the advert showing on TV? Whoever it was lied to you. You must be the most gullible man in the world.

I'm not gullable, I just don't get the advert. I just think the UK advertising agencies think that way regarding making annoying adverts to flog products.
 
That Sainsbury's advert with the dad and his little son having a nice day out together keeps making me really broody

Axe it before i buy some lady's eggs off ebay.
 
That one for a box of herbal tea bags while some cover version of a song originally by The Calling plays to an animated water colour painting. Thanks to that advert, it was sung on x-Factor the other night so I'm told. Even the thought of it makes me Cringe, and i'm glad I was one of those 2 million that switched off on Saturday.

A woman at work sings this OVER AND OVER AND OVER.
:evil:
 
The advert for Katie Price Signs Some Talentless Twat or whatever the hell it's called. I got congratulated for excellent use of profanity when I shouted "fuck off you talentless plastic spunkbucket!" at the telly.
 
Somehow annoying, everybody is happily converting into cartoon fruit!, lets not panic at all! What about the little house? and why would everyone want to stop the demolition?... who's this ad focus on? yoghurt-eating-yoga-hippies?

Müller - Wünderful stuff

A laugh a minute is a good way to describe it :D. I'm getting a Sky plus installed soon, so no more ad breaks! :D.

That Voltswagen one with the technical drawings and an equally bad cover of "Wouldn't it be nice?" I despise, roll on the sky plus!.
 
Two words: First. Bus.

Offensive to everyone.

Ugh that Philadelphia advert with the "real" person making a recipe, flanked by a sycophantic twatty "presenter". I don't think mixing some "Philly" with strawberries and dumping it on some pre-made meringues counts as either a recipe OR something delicious.

FUCK OFF

The new one with that woman who takes the meat out of sausages and then cooks it with Philadelphia as a pasta sauce is absolutely revolting. Why would anyone want to eat that?

She looks like she probably eats the skins afterwards anyway :gross:
 
The littlewoods christmas ad is COMPLETELY fucking disgusting. Everything that's wrong with christmas and children, and it basically feels like it's blackmailing mothers across the land -

HIDEOUS. I hope it fails and bankrupts them, and i don't think i've ever hated an advert quite so much. I could quite happily reverse a car over that speccy girl at the end.

On the flipside though, the John Lewis one is basically the opposite and i find it 100% adorable, even if it continues the recent trend of bland ladies singing slow cover versions -

AWWW
 
Awww. The Daily Fail are trying to claim that Morrissey fans are HORRIFIED and OUTRAGED that he has allowed his song to be used in an advert for a SHOP. LOLZ. It's not a very good version but I can't say I am BOTHERED
 
Thanks TurnerPrize, I was coming here to post about the Little Woods one. I hate kids trying to be cute. I'm so glad I don't have a uterus.
 
It's even WORSE as a radio advert (I'm FORCED to listen to local radio in work). It's the exact same as the TV ad but (obviously) without the visuals therefore it's COMPLETELY out of context.

That little CUNT is getting a LUMP OF COAL.
 
Oh my God that John Lewis advert has me MOVED like I shouldn't be from an advert.

And not in the same way as the hot farmers boy band.
 
If children were ACTUALLY like that, I might not be SO averse to the idea of having any
 
Littlewoods also IMPLIES Santa doesn't exist.

I had NO IDEA Littlewoods still EXISTED.
 
I was completely emotionally unmoved by the John Lewis advert. I must be like a STONE but I don't think I've ever been like that with much on TV, especially an advert. Sorry.

I think that some fans were a bit annoyed just about the song being misappropriated as opposed to the supposed cries of "OMG SELLOUT" that the Mail are on about.

THIS! They certainly don't have a high street presence anymore, do they? I associate them with the more boring pre-Christmas shopping trips of my early childhood.

Littlewoods to DIE at HOME.

John Lewis to be the governments EMOTIONAL WELL KEEPING TSAR.
 
Littlewoods exists in that ropey catalogue capacity. So your mother IS shit if she can't keep up those £1.15 weekly payments for a SHITTY BUSH TV/DVD COMBO for the REST OF HER (AND HER GRANDCHILDREN'S) LIFE
 
EVERYONE is going on about that John Lewis advert and how moving it is. I must be dead inside.

HALLELUJAH. I just find it far too hard to relate that much to an advert when they're basically hawking Christmas gifts (and I suffer from a metallic lack of emotion but that's BY THE BY).
 
Has anyone heard the new Kenco Millicano radio campaign? It is absolutely DIRE, even more so than the corresponding tv adverts.

I can't stand the utterly tuneless bint serenading a jar of coffee or her shit 'yeah yeah' adlibs. As if anyone would get so possessive over a jar of instant coffee.


What a shame, they won't let me embed it. :eyes:
