ads you despise...

"NOT HAPPY JAN!!!!"

I can't believe they decided to repeat that ad for this year's Yellow Pages :|
OMG! How can you hate that ad? Sure it's irritating but it's a classic! People still say 'not happy jan'. Okay... I still say 'not happy jan'.
 
^^ I actually find the the old woman in the ad really really annoying.

However... I do find it hilarious when I yell out "Not happy Jan!" at appropriate moments ;)
 
This thread makes me glad I don't watch TV.

BUT!!!! OMG BLOOD BOILING....I HATE!!!!!!! SO MUCH!!!!! that FUCKING ad they play on Nova all the time for the nasal delivery spray...the one with the guy who sounds like he really really wanted to be a D-Grade stand-up comedian when he was growing up, and the best he could do was a nose-spray viagra ad. If I didn't really really like sex so much, it would even turn me off having sex. Maybe. He's got an annoying voice anyway.

Oh and I don't know why Nova thought it would be a "funny" "gimmick" to have STUPID FUCKING NOVELTY SONG VERSE for their station promos. And what's even more annoying now is that they're taking ACTUAL songs that I LIKE, and rewriting the words to advertise their fucking LAME ASS so-called competitions!!!!!

*hyperventilates a lot*

FUCK YOU NOVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111

:X :X :X :X :X
 
Radio ads kill me:

"The Math-a-magic Computer Tutor!"

"HELLO.... I'm Frank Walker from National Tiles."

foxtel is ridiculous these days. i remember, back in the old days there were no ads in the middle of shows apart from a couple of promos for shows on the channel.
there was maybe one or two at the end, and shows that lasted an hour on free to air with commercials were like 40 minutes on foxtel.

nowadays it's no different to free to air.


YES!!

The concept of ads on TV you have ALREADY PAID FOR is ridiculous!


Silvia Saint... but I'm so sold on the magic bullet... that was the best infomercial I've seen in my life ;)
 
Tampom Ads I fucking hate, every single one of them

Also, any food that they try to market to adults as healthy for kids - Nutella, Mcdonalds, Nutra grain, coco pops etc.

And last but not least, self promoting of channels, the channel Ten ads are the worst, every single ad break I have to see the entire cast of neighbours dancing away to that horrible theme song. "what I like, what I like about you...."
 
That fucken "I-i-i-i-i-i-i like it veeerrry much" god forsaken I-primus ad or whatever the hell it is...

I thought the ads were bad back home, but some of the ads over here in connecticut are so fucking awful they make me want to take to the streets with a bomb strapped to my chest and a machine gun in each hand.... there's this one for the University of Connecticut with this fucking WANKER with a bowl-cut playing an acoustic guitar and making all these smarmy facial expressions, then he holds up his guitar pick and says "UCONN.. Great Pick" and smiles like a fucken dickhead... man... I want to find that guy and beat the living shit out of him.

There are also lots of ads for insurance compensation lawyers that are like "Have you been diagnosed with terminal leukemia recently? have you been exposed to benzo-5-perxoride-oxidase-15-caklmneldgnweiBwhateverthefuck manufactured by 3m or proctor and gamble in the last 3 months? you could be eligible for compensation, call 1800imanidiot now"

The 'flirtatious SMS' ads are also a hoot... who the fuck would be stupid enough to pay like $5 for some crusty old bastard with no teeth in toongabbie to text them flirty messages.
 
^^^Man, you'd be surprised....I used to work for Virgin Mobile, and the number of calls we got from people who were being ripped off by those flirt sms things....oy....

There was one guy who wanted to complain because the ad said he could meet a "sexy girl from right around YOUR corner!" and she wasn't even in the same STATE!

Gosh!

fkn tards... 8( :p

i hate the new puff dominos one... i was really excited hby those ads before i found it it was a bloody pizza crust.. i hate TV now

That reminds me of the time I stood for 20 minutes in Sydney and watched a plane draw out a message in the sky. I was quite sure I was about to witness the perfect revolutionary message, one that would cause the workers to drop their tools, storm out of their employment places, and take the North Shore back from the rich elite.

Instead it was an ad for some brand of chewing gum.

If I had a shoulder fired heat-seeking missile that day I would have shot that plane down.
 
huggies ads, wiv ppl kissing scodey babies on the bum
also tampon ads - so embarrassing in the wrong company :eek:

Any fucking ad that's on the TV in Australia. They're all annoying, lame and horrid. The Ad's actually made me want to stop watching TV there as they were offended me to the point where I realised that I was wasting precious time even watching that garble.
That's basically what I was going to say.

What is it with advertising over here??? It's just so un-subtle. The most annoying ones recently were advertising some sort of carpet sale, with some fucking big-mouth voice-over shouting at you.
 
Ads have deterred me from buying more products than they have ever convinced me to buy.

In fact the only advertising that works on me is mailbox catalogues. And only because they don't wank at you (well not much), just give you a price and a product. However I think they are a criminal waste of paper.

I saw a woman at work walking out of here the other day carrying a brand new one of those that she had obviously just had freshly delivered to work. After hearing all about it from you the other day, I could barely stop myself from laughing out loud at her.

I almost waited until she was out of public view so I could roll her and steal it for you, but she looked so damn pleased with herself I just couldn't bring myself to.
 
Not so much my despise for this ad, but there is a big fat mistake in it.

The sun smart one where people are being rotated parallel to the ground, like being on a spit-roast ;), anyway, the second or third guy that is rotating, only has one leg.

I'm sure it's a mistake and not the Govt's way of being Politically Correct, in a weird sort of way.
 
Those nasal delivery erectile dysfunction ads. I particular the one that says, 'NO DOODLE! BAD DOODLE!'

Bad doodle? wtf? That's just creepy.
 
Oh, on Access 31, the Community TV station thingy, there was an add on once when I was uplate saying "Men who like other men, but aren't gay support line, call 1800-blah blah"

I thought that was quite hilarious. Men who like other men, but aren't gay? WTF?

And no, I didn't call.
 
I hate those.. shop smart? ones? with the irritating lady with weird teeth? Anyway, the ones for Thins that imply that chips are a healthy recess because they have 100 calories. Um. That's because they weigh about 5g.

Seriously, being a parent is really hard work without people trying to misguide you into feeding your kids full of shit.
 
Yeah, she totally is a robot.

And! The Zoot Review ones with Nova Peris (nee Kneebone) talking about mini Heaven and Drumsticks in the same way - as if they're a healthy snack. They aren't! The only reason they have fewer calories is because they're so TINY! Stop trying to trick parents into feeding rubbish to their kids! How is that going to help the obesity problem?

Roar!
 
I think it's only in Sydney but the Shoe Shed ads, with the dancing feet and "Shoe Shed... Shoe Shed... get it into your head", except it sounds like "Shoe shit, shoe shit".

And it's funny cos their shoes ARE shit!
