FFS!!!!! that of a advert with the hedgehogs! The baby hedgehog when it starts telling a story or a joke, i don't know what and it starts doing the fake laughing that kids do when they are attention seeking stupid for sake!!
I don't even know what the they are advertising, i go blind and deaf with anger when i even see the advert start!! Never have i wanted to squash a hedgehog to death under the wheel of my car so much... i'd probably be up for squashing the parents/grandparents as well for not slapping the baby hedgehog and telling it, fake laughing is not cool! I hate it when kids do that!!
...they might be advertising sweets or some ?? them and their spikes!!

The "la la la la la " at the end of the Paypal ad,WTF is the point?
And not on TV but on a billboard,the Kia Soul ad has a picture of the car,and a cartoon cat in a tuxedo! Who in their right mind (apart fro advertising agency tosspots in shiny suits & silly glasses) associates those 2 with each other?

Strangely that "cat" is actually just a dog with a cat head superimposed onto it. So it's not really true.
Figures, I thought it moved more like a dog than a cat. Kinda creepy actually.Bit like the Audrey Hepburn ad. Yeah clever and no doubt very expensive, but I'm sure most people just thinks it's an actress made up to look like her anyway.

I came here to post about this.That "honestly I bleh bleh bleh beh bleh blee" tune makes me want find the culprit and st on their cushions
The one with the girl going on about her phone.
"It's got a quad core processor which means... um... it's really fast"
Something about that line really grinds my gears.

The Toyota hybrid where it says "6 million people have fallen in love with driving again" due to Toyota hybrids. Have they "fallen in love with driving again", or are they just pleased that it doesn't cost them so much do drive any more? Sounds to me like they've taken their sales figures and spun it to make it into something it's not. I'm sure the Toyota Prius I drive for work has been included in that 6 million figure, I don't love driving it.
Also, the Nissan Quashqai where it describes it as "the ultimate urban driving experience". If I wanted something for urban driving, an oversized hatchback on stilts wouldn't be my first choice.
Driving is one of my most pleasurable experiences, I love it - With that in mind, I would never willingly buy one of those cars. I can only imagine that they are the automotive equivalent of drinking tap water.Also, the Nissan Quashqai where it describes it as "the ultimate urban driving experience".

Having seen 14 reg Auris' now,they are the most dull styled angular dull dull dull boxes ever.
Have I mentioned dull yet ?
If that is falling in love with driving,I'm heading for a certain Swiss clinic....

Found out why this is now having seen the cinema ad. It is in fact a fat hamster who has slimmed down to arrive at a film premiere in a Soul. Still a fking stupid idea,in fact probably MORE fked up now you see the "story" gpo746 said:

That must be as in I want to go to a store that sells Chinese stuff at massively ramped up prices and whose staff are surprisingly unknowledgeable about a lot of the products on sale.
also surely they got this one wrong - surely a gadget shop aimed at men would want to paint their target demographic as knowledgeable yet techy capable individuals as opposed to clueless and haplessThat must be as in I want to go to a store that sells Chinese stuff at massively ramped up prices and whose staff are surprisingly unknowledgeable about a lot of the products on sale.
the guy who cannot reverse and needs reversing cam - do they offer a fitting service or does the guy who cannot even reserve park have to have the ability to fit the cam himself?
Why does the "new Vanish Gold" advert have a slightly Asian looking woman showing us how easy it is to get Soy Sauce stains out of something ?
Does the fact its a Soy Sauce stain require an Asian to sort it out properly ?
ETA: Same advert, I don't like the second woman's leery teeth. I'm a bit scared.

advertising execs think only Asian / Chinese people have money, if they are not placing Chinese actresses into adverts they are using actresses who look like they are part-Asian anyway. Guess soy sauce adds that extra dimension nicely.Does the fact its a Soy Sauce stain require an Asian to sort it out properly ?

kind of demeaning to non-Asian customers in a predominantly caucasian European country, but hey
