I'm not entirely sure why but "Hafiz" the Barclays mortgage hamster and how he's nearly paid off his mortgage really gets on my tits.

No, and no amount of video evidence will prove otherwise.

Hair.

Every 30 minutes on the BBC.

I've never known a BBC programme be promoted as much as this and I'm bloody sick of it.

The Barclays Premier League oik ball advert.

The teary eyed OAP, the oik father with his son who is plainly there for him as I'm sure are many others and the oiks on the bus with the bored girlfriend.

John Terry's wet dream. Tamping.

Yes, thank you. I have been trying to explain to people why this annoys me, can come up with no other reason that it just does.

When I was 15 or 16, back in the early 80's, I 'got off' with a girl at a party after one too many cans of lager. I'm not entirely sure what I'd wanted to say but it came out as ''I want to sex you''. Anyway, she didn't let me, then told her mate and I spent the next few months having the piss ripped out of me, by anyone and everyone that knew me. I'd pretty much forgotten about the whole episode.....till now. paperbag

I can't stand that advert either, but I think it's the speed of the talking. It is sooooo slooooow. I just can't be bothered to hear the droning on, my mind is screaming "Speed it up a bit you c**t!"

It was on again earlier, i'd like to know how many of Barclays clearly Asian demographic, living in three bed semis, with a loft conversion, and six kids, have actually paid off their mortgage early laugh I'd put the total number for the whole country in single figures rofl

Adverts that seem to be stupid, pointless strings of images that have nothing to do with the product being advertised.

fking kid on a bicycle with kitten in basket to advertise mobile internet. Skinny bird flicking her hair around for a fking Trivago advert. Cat & fking Budgie for Freeview. Even noticed tonight some stupid, stupid Innerspace-esq lava-lamp images inside a fking eyeball allegedly to advertise laser surgery.

The Cat and Budgie one really annoys me though for its sheer randomness - I thought singing fking animals were old hat now, having been done to death years ago. Sat at work one night I even followed the #Catandbudgie spaz-tag in the hope of finding like-minded people to share my hatred, but no, Joe Public is creaming it's fking pants over how "Sweet", "Funny" and "Amazing" this advert was. I wondered who could enjoy this drivel, but then I realised Joe Public laps up the shovel-fed slurry that is fking 'television' these days.

Advertise the fking product, don't feed me a Pixar style mini-movie about a singing animal then slap a logo at the last few seconds of footage advertising Freeview.

Its Freeview - I'm fking watching it whilst you advertise it.

At around 23:40 on Tuesday, the Tefal advert for frying pans with a tag line about how useful they will be on pancake day, annoyed me. If I hadn't got one by then and made my pancakes with it, the chances of me going shopping at almost midnight, finding a pan and all the other bits, then getting back home and using it to make some pancakes on pancake day are negligible.

Someone needs to have a word with James Nesbitt about those Thomas Cook adverts. He either needs to sack the make up girl or lay off the botox. His head looks a shaved coconut with a smile painted on.

And wt juddering f is that new one with women screaming directly at the camera about shoes? Its just repellent. furious

The bloody McVities adverts with various supposedly "cute" animals emerging from the packaging & the people opening the packaging having an almost orgasmic reaction whilst doing so banghead

Also the 3 advert with the singing fking kitty on the bike with the fist pumping kid banghead I wonder if someone will do an internet parody/spoof version with the kid falling off the bike, injuring themselves and the kitty in the process hehegetmecoat

And finally - all the bloody "loanshark" adverts & the all singing, all dancing "claims" adverts.
