Topic: Adverts you hate

[Son of Spion]

The Ribena one with the lad who has the berry field and his bird says at the end “Andrew! Let’s get these off to the pisser/presser/prisser”. What the fuck does she say at the end?!

Yes, another one I can't stand.

The hapless, daydreaming male pulled into line by the female who is clearly in charge. 

Yet more sexist shite.

A few years ago I emailed a company who had another one of these sexist ads and got a reply back from a woman who suggested it was just "harmless battle of the sexes stuff." I replied that when it used to be male on female sexism it also used to be framed as being harmless too but now we know better.

She dismissed my concerns but I informed her that I, and increasing number of others, were boycotting their business and other businesses that employed damaging sexism to push their products, regardless of which way around the sexism was.

Spencer Matthews, fake Gin ads

I just want to repeatedly punch him in the face

[Rob Dylan]

That Dominos one with the yodelling.

It's like it's been scientifically designed to be the worst, most annoying advert ever. Do they really think it will make people order their pizza? Who gets paid to produce this shite?

[So… Howard Philips]

He looks like a Robbie Williams look alike impersonating, badly, Sean Connery playing James Bond.

Betting adverts, it's the sheer amount of them every on ad break when live sport is on, just had 2 betting ads in the ad break then.

Exactly, yet they focus on banning adverts for crisps and sweets

I'd love to see gambling ads totally banned.

[Ziltoid]

Where's Mr Cholmondely-Warner to inject some common sense when you need it?

[Buck Pete]

Seriously, Nationwide yet again!!

What in the holy fuck is the bloke in the new ad rabbiting on about? 

I've watched it a few times and am non the wiser.   Do they honestly think people will go out and open a bank account on the strength of their shite adverts?

[bradders1011]

Financial adverts are the worst. If your interest rate is 0.1 better than your competitor I'll give you a look. That's all we need to know for now, I'll do my ESG due diligence in my own time.

The Ford Mustang Mach E advert. Not only is it annoying but in my opinion has destroyed the name of the Ford Mustang. It was never an SUV / Crossover.

Its an awful looking car. I hate SUV/crossovers anyway, useless lumps of metal.

The BoyleSports one with Steven Gerrard is appalling.

It's a good job Steven could play football, because I've seen fence posts that are less wooden on screen. 

[AlphaDelta]

As has been mentioned, that Domino's advert. It makes me toes curl its that bad.

I mean the pizzas are nice and that, but they are a rip off and that advert has just made me refuse to order from them again.

[rob1966]

The new Verisure advert.

It seems advertisers are so desperate to not be seen as sexist towards women ... that they are sexist towards men instead. 

Here, we have two couples, but only the females speak. The females discuss one of the couples getting an alarm system because the other couple has one. The males have no say in any of this and sit there like brainless, mute, nodding dogs.

Well done Verisure. 

Saw this for the first time tonight and to be fair, it makes the women look like idiots too. They just sit their spouting about the alarm like a couple of clueless idiots, its obvious neither woman has the foggiest idea about what alarm they need, what functions they will need the alarm to have and will just buy and old shite.

Maybe the fellas are just sat there knowingly, thinking "yeah you just prattle on love, when the rep turns up I'll deal with the technical side of things so that we don't end up with a pile of shite"

Every Verisure ad I've seen has been utterly awful. I still want to put the telly in every time I see this one.

[Redwhiteandnotblue]

For the latest billboard ads the colonel should definitely give his advertising agency a good KFC.

New LG ad is genuinely one of the worst I can remember. It has the concept and production quality of something you'd see on regional TV in 2004, stunned it got greenlit at any stage.

oooh im dying to see this now

I'm off to find it.

Edit: Surely you're not on about the LG OLED evo one I've just watched on YouTube?  If so, you must work for Samsung or Sony as its pretty amazing.

Actually I've just seen the one you mean.  The one set to a cover of "Its a hard knock life" from Annie.  Yep its utter shite

LG must have blown 99.9% of their Advertising budget on the OLED evo ad

It's like they've been smoking crack.

The McNasty's one that's just different people hooting with laughter. What are they laughing at? Are they laughing at me? It's one of the most infuriating things I've ever seen on television.

Reminds me of a scene from The Office.

I've only seen it twice, whilst watching some programme, yesterday.

It was an instant annoyance, after the first viewing.

Just NO.

Got to love an erectile disfunction advert early morning when watching with your kids.

I've just seen it,it's fucking bilge.

A new one. Starts off with a montage of Diana clips and a sombre monologue saying, "Diana, Princess of Whales died tragically over 20 years ago, but her legacy lives on."

Thought it was going to be an ad for the Daily Express, but no. It continues...

"This year would have been her 60th birthday and as a tribute we've produced a Sovereign coin with her face replacing that of the queen, that we'll sell to you gullible twats for a hugely inflated fee."

And it's not even a full or even half Sovereign. It's a fucking one-eighth Sovereign (the briefly displayed smallprint tells us it weighs 1 whole g)

Fucking hell. We're a nation of grifters.
