Adverts you hate #3

[Cupid_Stunt]

Amen. It makes me queasy.
"Butt pickers. Wedgie checkers"
It's tattooed on my brain now.
IMO it's a facet of the general trend toward Infantilism in society.
Kind of surprised there's not been one with someone just repeating "poo,poo,wee wee,poo poo" like a mantra.
Give it time.

Well there’s the Pepto advert sung in such a jolly happy way with a little dance to go with it which is close enough:

“If you’ve got Nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, diarrhoe-aa-a” (with added pointing to the bottom on the last word)

Lynx lower body spray with the crotch and arse sniffing Why is that a thing?

It's revoltingly obscene! It's even worse than the one for Sure all-body spray. Then we have the Andrex toilet roll ad with a definite 'plop' sound at the end. Like, really! There's edgy and then there's seriously disgusting. I'm waiting for the next ad for condoms to appear, complete with scenes of a close-up of a used condom getting flung down the loo. Or maybe a tissue advert with tissues placed on a bedroom locker being used for a 'wipe-up' or to dry the wet patch.

There really are some sicko minds at work in the advertising depts these days.

 

[Fledgling Psycho]

The woman in her pee pants sitting on some guys shoulders at a concert. So cringe.

 

[erb73]

Simplicity cremations. “Way to go way to go”. People in the audience clapping like they have just watched the Oasis reunion.

 

[Rosie glow]

The sofology one with the guinea pigs I know what they are trying to do but I'm not sure choosing a pet based on it's colour is really giving out the right message

 

[hehehe]

How many fecking adverts is the Grinch in this year? Asda, McDonalds, what's bloody next??

 

[ohnomyhat]

Trading 212. Always pops up before my nightly ASMR youtube watching and gives me the rage.

Any and all gambling ads, I think they're disgustingly irresponsible.

 

[OwlHen]

The radio ones for On The Beach…playing “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”. Last year I swear they ran until about July

 

[nopenopenopejustno]

The whole body deodorant advert. I don't want to think of sweaty mushroom balls, revolting

 

[hehehe]

Agreed, but the RSPCA ads make me feel particularly annoyed as if you do call the RSPCA to report neglect, they say they can't do anything or try to refer you to much smaller charities who do not get a tenth of the donations the RSPCA do. Bastards!

I used to donate monthly to SSPCA decades ago until the first and only time I called them to help a fox I saw injured under a bridge, and they said "sorry the animal will just run away if we come!"

.......even though I was reporting that its hind leg was clearly broken and maimed, and it couldn't move.

 

[CarmenGhia]

At least Marc Jacobs has finally got a new perfume ad after years of daisydaisydaisy. Dior needs to get rid of Natalie Portman gurning as she lip-syncs to Janis Joplin now.

 

[ohnomyhat]

I hate gambling ads. Especially the bingo type ones which are making it feel “matey” rather than being clear what it is.

Yes agree!! It's very sinister - lure in people who are likely to be lonely or vulnerable with the promise of fun and cash, and trap them.

The woman who is the CEO of a big gambling company - can't remember her name - she gets in the news every year for awarding herself a huge bonus. People go wild like, "Yaaas girl boss!" or go all high and mighty like, "well she pays LOTS OF TAXES into this country" - meanwhile I'm like you are a hateful entity sat on an empire made up of people's misfortunes and addictions. Absolute parasite.

 

[Mollywobbles]

The Pandora Mommy’s Day advert.
I love you Momma….

 

[dressinggownofdoom]

I love Midsomer and Poirot too and my god, those ads! The ones where everyone is so happy to be attending funerals so they can get inspo for their own funerals.

husband: ‘Maybe we should arrange our own direct cremation?’
Wife:*claps gleefully!* ‘yes! let’s do it today!’
Everyone grinning maniacally and clinking champagne glasses together in a toast to the joyous occasion.

 

[wellse]

Verisure. Why is the silly bint calling her alarm company to report her husband having chest pains?

 

[MoodyBlue]

The Holland & Barratt one, with the singing body parts.

 

[iLoveMeSomeCanoles]

Hope you don’t mind me bringing a print advert into the thread, but saw this one in the You magazine on Sunday and thought it was a bit stupid.

Now, I know it says “This is not a shampoo or a hair product” but why would you even risk it?

 

[Melian]

The amount of betting adverts. It's the whole when it's time to stop, stop...whilst constantly advertising gambling

 

[Sketchy]

That one for ... Asda? with the baby/toddler talking like an old man at the end. Gives me the heeby-jeebies. <shudder>

 

[Iamthebosun]

The one for Tena something-or-other. Do advertisers think we don't have any imagination? I don't need to see a close-up of a woman's crotch, thank you very much. The only saving grace is that at least she's wearing knickers and not a skimpy thong. But jeez!

Oh, and the one for sanitary pads with the period GUSH! Just how much more revolting can these adverts get, ffs???

The Gillette Venus one can be added to this, I can see the shaving bumps on her bikini line, why is that necessary! And whatever the one is where the man deodorants his penis, bloody hell.
