I absolutely adore former LFC manager Jürgen Klopp. Love the bones of the man. I still hate those bloody Trivago ads he's in though.

At least they've cut out the infuriating "Hotel? Trivago" bull. For years I actually thought it was called Hotel Trivago!

Booking.com with booking and booker used to sound like bleeping and fucker, it's childish and unnecessary. Who is is appealing to other than my 7 year old who looks delighted at it!
I agree I hate this so much! I don't have kids and this might be old fashioned but if I did I wouldn't want them hearing it.
I feel compelled to point out though that it isn't booking.com but On The Beach since I recently had a huge debate about this with the family! 😅

Ah yes of course , booking.com is Tina Fey isn't it! SO IT DOESN'T EVEN WORK ! Jesus.
Yes I swear like a sailor but I think it's objectionable

On The Beach had 135 complaints about it in January last year, but after review, the Advertising Standards Authority cleared On the Beach and Paddy McGuinness on all possible counts.

Which is crazy when you so often hear of things being vetoed after just one complaint

I have no faith in the ASA and their judgment.
I once complained about an advert for a car.
Party, wife swapping, people throwing their keys in a bowl. Chap picks out a key and groans when he realises it’s owner is a rather curvy plus sized lady. Then smiles when he realises what the car is.
I complained it was insulting to curvy ladies.
There were over 300 complaints but it was not upheld because “the woman seemed to be happy in the role”

Sick of hearing... "Were you born between 1965 and 1985?, if so you could be owed thousands of pounds. Call our hotline on freephone 02900 132 385 to find out how much you are owed"

Also why is every ad on you tube some 'get rich quick' scam trying to get you to invest. How is it allowed.

Like when my now adult daughter was a young teenager and couldn’t understand why I refused to let her wear a French Connection sweatshirt that had FCUK on it.

That Pure cremation one with the guy in the bath. Can’t stand any of their adverts but I really don’t want to see him smirking away about sausage rolls again. Also, he looks like that bath is too small for him and he’s stuck in there.
Also that one that uses “Ring My Bell” which has a lot of random weird stuff and end with someone in a pig costume playing the drums. It’s like some sort of weird fever nightmare dream and I still haven’t a clue what it’s trying to sell

Poor chap in the bath. Couldn’t someone tell him even if they have those lovely sausage rolls at his funeral,…he won’t be there to eat them.

It's the fella with his dirty parsnips for sun life over 50s plan that gets on my wick
Our neighbours husband fell head-first down their well & that was that. When she contacted Sun-Life after paying a monthly stipend for 40 years, they informed her that it was actually their neighbour who was covered , as her husband had inadvertently put the wrong house number on the paperwork.
When she asked them what should she do, they said its best that she gets the well filled in.... 😐😐😐😐😐💀💀💀💀😱☠

i think it's Hays Travel, where the family want to go to Portugal, which has some of the worst acting i've seen on an advert in a long while.
