Dog-amoto Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Been a while since the last thread. I'll get us started. All the usual Go Compare, Meerkat etc ads go without saying, but feel free to post them if they annoy you so much. For me, I can't stand this twatting advert - it's the singing that does it. It really grates and I have to mute the TV immediately. I hate it so much, it actually makes me angry. Shit car as well. Any ads that make you want to pull your own leg off and throw it at the TV?

The Peeps Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Go compare advert is annoying as hell. I don't really watch tv anymore, everything I want to see ends up on iPlayer, 4OD, youtube, 'specialist sites' That one you posted is horrible. The singing is really irritating.

mcj metroid Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hold on doesn't EvilMurray usually make these threads lol. I can't beat the opening posters one. Being honest though, I don't watch a lot of tv BECAUSE of ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Does Eastenders count because its an advert for bad dialogue/suicide/etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbob Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Does Eastenders count because its an advert for bad dialogue/suicide/etc? If only. Yeah, i completly dislike the Go Compare Ads as well. I could post the worst one, but they are all as bad as each other. Where-as, the Cadbury ads make no sense. They are supposed to advertise chocolate, but they make no sense.

The Mad Monkey Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 That advert is brilliant, you're just miserable. You can't see the poor guys predicament? It's just a low rent version of King Midas, and if I'm not mistaken that was a tragedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Peeps Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I'm reposting that in the funny stuff thread :p It's the juxtaposition, or whatever you'd call it, of a depressing situation and an advert for sweets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I find the concept funny, but I have to agree with MM, why on earth did they go for such a grim take on it? Even I could come up with funnier ways to use that idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diageo Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I am not annoyed by any of the ads posted here and I quite like a few of them. (Skittles and Cadbury's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it helps, it's not a real disease. I'm pretty sure it was done with special effects and no one in the real world is affected by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 All of these adverts are great, I don't know what you guys are on about. Maybe I'm just comparing too much the utterly terrible US adverts. Now there is something to complain about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nekunando Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I actually thought the Skittles advert was OK (though I've only ever seen the slightly truncated version on TV that doesn't include the part about shaking someone's hand..) but I actually did question it in a way that just reads a little too much into it I was with my friends one night when it came on the TV and I suggested to them that if he really suffered from this condition he surely wouldn't make the simple mistake of trying to pick up a phone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
