I saw an advert last night with the tag line "don't get stung by finance". The advert involved giant, cartoon baddy wasps with massive stingers. It didn't make me feel favourably about the company at all.

The Simple advert, when she dry cuts her hair without a cape and she sends the woman off on a job interview with all hair on her suit. The new Lidl advert, that saxophone is so shrill, its horrible. Any Vinted advert, especially her with the pink T-shirt.
Ah she's the one I can imagine her ripping the kid's shoes off their feet so she can make a few quid out of them.

Few years ago Kentucky fried chicken Ad had these two woman on,they were talking as eating both mouths full of food,it was awful and disgusting,It was only on for awhil and they pulled.Due to complaints.
TBH I really loathe the woman who does the voiceovers for KFC - awful, nasty Estaurine English UGH

The advert for Fearne McCann's show. The way she says the word 'child', the toddler scream, and then Fearne's gormless look at the end. I hate it so much and ITV are plugging it so much! Ergh!!!

That stupid Smile CLub one "we can't make working out any easier..." how is that in any way relevant. I actually cannot think of any ads I do not have atm

It was along those lines @elohveehee, it wasn’t complimentary! I thought it was a wind up when they contacted me. I have no regrets about turning them down.they weren’t even offering a bottle of shampoo as payment, just the prestige!

Luckily this advert isn't on TV anymore but it was that Anchor Christmas advert with the sloth things where the grandma gives the kid a squeaky elephant for Christmas

I can't get my head around the ad featuring a giant rita ora stomping all over the capital in king kong/t rex style 🤔
I actually hadn't seen this advert until after I had seen all of the 'giant Rita Ora' memes - it is SO bizarre!!

There was an article on one of those houses someone won in one of those competitions, I think it was the cotswold one? House is built on a floodplain that has flooded 🙃 so no luck selling it lol
I knew there had to be catches to those houses! It seems like a scam, so there had to be some fault. The big Wimbledon house on the ad at the moment looks like you only get half of that house, and the garden is a postage stamp, over looked by everyone. It's all clever angles and descriptions.

The woman's voice is incredibly annoying too!

There’s a L’Oréal advert at the moment and it says the word concealer about 6 times in 30 seconds. Dunno why but it just irritates me

Gotten to the stage my neice only watches stream sites now so she can grow up without these pesky adds, by the time she's my age she probably won't even know what a add even is with some luck
I rarely watch TV live as I tend to watch programmes on catch-up platforms purely to avoid the adverts and the ridiculous trigger warnings before a programme starts. But sometimes the catch-up platforms have adverts too so there's no total escape from them unfortunately.

Sorry if either been mentioned but:

The one with that SIA song that goes ‘show you how strong I am .. I’m unstoppable’ etc etc

Honestly just makes me cringe it’s a shite song and over used
They play this on Spotify too 'i am a Porsche with no breaks'... (Just terrible lyrics!) But there's no way I'm signing up for premium, I just mute my phone!

Eurgh I think my body just turned inside out from the cringe.

A bit off topic but I was in a restaurant a few months ago which had a giant Haribo vending machine but every now and then - seemingly as you walked past it - it would shout “HA-RI-BO” at you really loudly, genuinely gave me the fear 😆🥴
whpever made this ad should have been sacked, none of it makes any sense, it weirdly seems like the "song" should rhyme but it doesn't even do that
