Adverts that make you wanna smash your TV set up.

[Bluedot]

The one with the annoying couple painting a shed and then doing some fking stupid dance next to it has just started to rear its ugly head again.

Lenny Henry fking snoring !!!

Goes right through me.

The one with the weak song where the guy takes his daughter for a Japanese and tries to get the dog to sit. Think it might be Barclaycard. I really hate that one, especially the half chuckle from the singer part way through.

Other than that, pretty much anything for cosmetics/hair products where they make up names for chemicals to make the product sound impressive. And the one where 'most hair wont fit through the eye of a needle.........now it will fit through the eye of a needle'. Can't say I've ever tried to thread my hair.

Dweeby dad is extolling the delights of checking your balance and transferring money using your smart phone while in inappropriate social situations. No idea which bank it's for though, so the ad agency have failed at the brand identity thing.

Toothpaste adverts. Specifically Sensodyne ones with the drunk cameraman. And "No 1 with dentists". Sure, something like 74% of a sample size of a few hundred? There are about 21,000 dentists in the UK!

I think its the Sensodyne ones that are also (purposly?) heaviliy edited. Its almost as if they've created an advert out of a conversation about a dentists commute in to work.

I may have said it before but the Corsadyl adverts where the person lifts their lip and has a tooth missing (or not, its just a model with one of their teeth painted black) FFS cant they find someone with a tooth actually missing

Booking.com

You could easily swap booking for fking in the voice over's words and get what they really mean.

I hope they didn't pay for it. As campaigns go it is a 5 o clock on Friday job.

'Hey, 'booking' sounds like 'fking' - people would think we were cutting edge and not scared of controversy.

No, people would just think you ad campaign was tedious and lazy.

well that's exactly why they've done it. It's a bit like Peter Kay. "I like him because he says things that remind me of being a kid". Lazy cynical bks!!!

Pretty much all adverts. I no longer watch general tv. Just DVDs and Netflix.

Weightwatchers yoghurt advert, when one of the two friends says:

"It's deliciously indulgent"

Who in the real world would say that?

[AlexRS2782]

McDonalds latest one. Starts out looking like it's one of those awkward ads for the many online dating sites about 2 people not quite getting along during their day together. Ends up with the 2 of them parting ways but somehow they both end up in the same McDonalds at neighbouring tills, ordering exactly the same thing and realise they're perfect for each other

[Petemate]

The latest Samsung ad for the wireless charging.

Don't really know what the advert is for, some holiday company (I keep the remote handy so I can mute the TV the moment it comes on) but the one with the dog barking "Book" several times as it is looking at the computer screen.

If the idea is to make the advert annoying so that whatever product or service they are selling stick in your mind, then it hasn't worked with me.

The soppy, kiss a tissue with a message thing. Kissing a tissue isn't a thing - fk off!

You could be right, but it's not gaining them any sales here. I've been a customer for years.
