The cringeworthy advert for Enterprise featuring Gerard Butler speed ordering a Merc cabriolet whilst parachuting away from "the bad guys" that ends with him "landing" in the Merc.

Also KFC's new "wot tha cluck" advert.
Hiring a car, Christ on a bike if only it was so easy. Do you want this insurance, do you want that insurance, do you want this do you want that.

Excess is £1000 but you can buy this excess insurance. I refused the insurance but then was fretting about the excess so we took the car back.

You can get excess cover from 3rd parties. Get a quote, tell the hire company how much it is and they always match it, especially if you wait until you are at the collection desk.

TK Maxx - it appears they've tried to do a sing song advert that parodies other adverts but unsurprisingly turns out to be pretty bad / embarrasing.

Also Amazon Prime - yes i know you have a new show called Hanna, but you don't need to keep running a bloody advert for it on nearly every ad break slot you can find - she smells like fear, rats in bloody cages banghead

The Aviva returning customer.

Car ads used to be about style and performance. Now it’s just connectivity, the most extreme example being the - Hi BMW, and twirling finger.

At least they have someone who clearly enjoys the product to endorse it.

And again.

I don't want to "Swap out" something, If I'm going to use a superfluous word, I'm going to "Swap in" something instead, just to be fking contrary, or I'll just speak normal fking English and "Swap" something.

Jason Donovan too by the looks of it, although this one did make me laugh to be fair.

The latest sh*te Nationwide poem about the high street and how Nationwide is single handedly is going to save all the stores closing down. The poem is cringeworthy and the guy reciting it looks like a real dick.

And they only guarantee it for 2 years...

Watching a film the other night and in EVERY single ad break, I had the deeply crap and unholy trilogy of TK Maxx followed by Direct Line pink shirt man followed by that bloody awful Argos ad where they wear the furniture.

3 places I will never set foot again. Ever...

If they brought back a rear engined, rear wheel drive coupe I could be persuaded (not that I'm yoof).
