Adverts that get on your nerves

[bennibenj]

Everyone has certain adverts that wind them up or dislike.

Do not like that singing fool on the Gocompare adverts and also the Churchill and Direct Line adverts bore me senseless.

I know the idea is to get people to remember the product blah blah, but taking that aside, what ones dont you like?

 

[Curious Orange]

That one for the Zutons album...

 

[Gritt23]

All of the legalised Loan Shark ones. Yeah, borrow a few quid for a few days, no hassle. But for the love of GOD don't fail to repay, as the APR is in excess of 2000%!!! Shouldn't be allowed.

 

[NickBHAFC18]

WeBuyAnyCar.com can do one.

 

[Manx Shearwater]

"...and now the sciencey bit..."

F*ck off. You patronising w*nk*rs. And your science is rubbish and made up anyway.

 

[Braders]

I like the Churchill ones , but agree the Direct Line ones do my head in - surely people aren't THAT stupid

 

[Badger]

There are plenty of adverts that get on my nerves GoCompare, WeBuyAnyCar.com etc. but I think the ones that annoy me most are the "your life is not complete unless you buy our products" Apple adverts.

Has anyone read the small print that scrolls across the bottom of the screen while that "I SAID YOU BUY ONE YOU GET ONE FREE" F*ckt*rd tries to distract you from reading it?

 

[The Giant Bolster]

The Barclays one with Stephen Merchant doing the voice over...Awful

 

[ExmouthExile]

GoCompare has to be my all time most irritating ad. In fact, most people I know are actually turned off of the product.... just because of that fat singing buffoon!

 

[middletoenail]

"Have you ever been injured in an accident that wasn't your fault?" - Fronted by people like that bloke who had a minor part on the bill about 20 years ago and Andrew Castle!

 

[Janbha]

anti wrinkle products that use a 20 year old woman to suggest her wrinkles are almost gone after 1 application.

that clothing company that boast fashionable affordable clothes for all sizes from 12-32 yet choose a woman whos no more than a size 8 to model the clothes

 

[Wickerman]

The Cilit Bang advert where 5 people with glued smiles on their faces all crowd round for the evenings entertainment......CLEANING THE FUCKIN' SHOWER............when the nerdy husband comes in to say " Hey...you're all missing the..........." WTF.......you're ALL missing a BRAIN!!!!

These and that advert where several celebrities try to persuade you to stay in the UK for your holidays this year (not that I have much in the way of a choice anyway).

Yes, I always pause on the smallprint of those loans adverts, just so that it's a fully informed fury I go into. In fact, I have sat there reading and explaining the truth of the matter to my 10 year old son, explaining just how much £100 borrowed would be owed a year later. Important lesson that I hope he learns the easy way.

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

Many ads irritate the crap out of me, but the one that grinds my gears at the moment is Confused.com
A woman with a shrill voice, murdering classic records

This.

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

All the PPI reclaim companies' ones.

That one is INCREDIBLY patronising. Yes, Mr Fry, because there is NO way you are popping over to Southern France this summer at all, is there?

 

[GYM]

I really cannot stand the New MARS advert with the penalty shoot out.

Whoever said yes! this is well produced and edited and let that go out wants f***ing shooting!!!!
