- The AOL ones with that bloody irritating woman (thankfully retired with the advent of AOL 8)
- Any advert by DFS
- That Renault Megane advert with the 'shaking that ass' song (now thankfuly pulled)
There are many others.

Same As Lamsey The Damn AOL Adverts And The New Advert For The WOW Camera With That Annoying Girl!
There are a couple of local ads that I really despise, but unless you're from the eastern Indiana - western Ohio area, you wouldn't recognize them. ;)
So far as national campaigns (United States)...
- The "truth" ads really annoy me.
- The Verizon "Can you hear me now?" commercials - except the monkey one - it's hilarious! :P

But back on topic :lol: :lol:
Sky tv ads :angry: Grrrrrrrrr
Cheese Strings!! :angry: Not funny to show kid tricking their parents by saying they have an illness :angry:
Any ad for loans/cards/accident claims etc...
But the worst are the Cancer ads........Baz lost his Father to Cancer a couple of years ago and it upsets both him and me to see these ads, I think they could get the message out a different way!

The Dell "dude" would have made my list if Dell marketing wasnt

know there'll be more it's the first that springs to mind and makes me switch over.
Dont Even Mention That Advert :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:Quote:

And I didn't realize that anyone else thought that the girl in the Mitzubishi commercial looks like she's having an epileptic seizure! :blink: Nice to know it isn't just me!
i hate the Strongbow Ads for what they've become - they changed the slogan from "Get A Thirst First" to "Get Refreshed"
i also hate AOL ads, BT ads, any of those 'stylised' purfume ads, ads for loans, ads about people who fell of their chair because their arse is too fat and are now sueing people, and that ad for that tanning stuff with that nice looking woman who then smiles
i just saw one on 5 for something called orangeglo. calm down man were not french
Just about any commercial involving washed-up athletes or never-were actors pushing alternate long-distance phone companies. You know the ones....... " Hey Fred, why didn't you just call 1-880-665-743-929-eighty-eight-hup-one-hup-two- jackmeoff-4878-SAVE -ON-CALLS ? "
Oh, man ! you mean I could have saved eight cents if I had just called 1-880-665-743-929-eighty-eight-hup-one-hup-two-jackmeoff-4878-SAVE-ON-CALLS ? "
That's right Fred, it's as easy as 1-880-665-743-929......blahblahblahblah.....AAAAAAARRRRRGH ! :blink:
i just seen an advert with "Mr-never-going-to-win-wimbledon-dickhead" in it - a.k.a Tim Henman - one of the biggest twats ive seen in my life - and a terrible tennis player who will NEVER win wimbledon - im not really into tennis it just pisses me off all the British people are behind "our tim", when he's sh*te and everyone forgets about the tournament a day after its over.....
Anyway have i hijacked this with a rant?
Sorry! The advert sucks ass !! Its about persil, some washin up liquid of sumthin.
Definitely :angry:Quote:

I've seen one recently,
its this guy who's like:
"You know what a no brainer is? It's something
that you dont even have to think about"
He sounded serious so i thought it was some kind of
anti-drug or anti-tobacco commercials.
But then he says:
"A big no brainer is saving your money with 10-10-####.
You save $$ per minute and $$ on long distance."
I was like :blink: wtf?
Another one that was stupid:
Drug money supports terrorism.
Okay,
I go by Mcdonald's and pay for a big mac,
I give the a dollar plus some coins.
Later that day, a mand walks in and orders
another Big Mac. He receives the 1 dollar that I
gave the cashier as change.
Later, that man commits a terrorist act.
By Going to McDonalds did I just support Terrorism? :blink:

But the expression you used, "she'll twat him" must mean something different over there than it would here... here "twat" is synonymous with "cunt". :blink:
twat, cunt, bliff, minge........geez, got all day :rolleyes: ?!
Means lamp him, belt him, cause damage around the face, that kind of thing. WHICH THE SMUG BAS**RD RICHLY DESERVES! :P

Sorry for the confusion pal, must have been an interesting image though :blink: Thanks for clearing it up Rhydian666 you mulltilinguist you :P :)
You're welcome. When I die they'll write "Travelled far, learned much, and achieved nothing" on my headstone. B)
Yeah, I kinda figured it meant something like that.
Something like "giving 'im a smack round the ear 'ole." :P
:lol: Ok the American was hard enough, what the hell language is that!!?? :lol: :P :D
American movie actors english?? :P :D
Sorry, that was my weak attempt at British humor.
The only reference I have to go by are episodes of
- "Vicar of Dibley", "Are you being Served?" and "Keeping Up Appearances"

LOL ok. This balding idiot who compares his mattress business to Walt Disney's disneyland, and the Beatles of all things.
He always talks about how wise his grandfather was in making his own mattresses and selling them cheap.
