"More annoying ads"

Halifax ones aside, with the goon Howard, we have others.

Capital One No Hassle Platinum Plus Card. Right. Apart from being mildy lame in name, the amount of crappy ads they have is unbelievable. And the fact they change every damn ad about a week after you first see it suggests they have no clue. Plus, on their latest ad, they took out the little 'wwoooobobibibiblblle!' noise the green monster makes, which was hilarious. Fools.

Thanks to Gamesfreak, those Knor sauce ads with the panda. OH LOOK! The panda speaks like a common Englishman! Beltin'! You little minx! How terribly......unoriginal and completely unfunny. Tries to be funny, falls between two stools, and skewers its nads on a - skewer. I hate those ads that revert to humour (i.e let's change a stereotype, by subverting it with an unexpected and funny voice!) Lame, lame lame. Sorry Gamesfreak. But lame.

All these football ads. I like football. I don't like adverts. In particular McDonalds. 'Buy a big Mac bla bla bla' - in perfect English from a perfectly clean and friendly teenage girl. Yeah right. Although the 'Free One!' cry is mildly amusing, the 'bana ba ba noooow!' is utterly infuriating, especially with that sh*te noise that makes it. Rubbish.

And that coke ad with the kid who can't f**king kick a ball. Then he goes 'goal? GOAAALLL!'. Retarded, generic and retarded again.

Anyone else?

Yeah, I have to agree with Whitestripes there. The Salads plus adverts are awful. I mean, who the f**k goes to McDonalds to buy a salad...?

EVERYDAY WOMEN OF COURSE!

It's pathetically blatant market expansion advertising. It's just so ironic that most McDonalds are still full of grease monkeys.

hmm I'm guessing no one here has seen the new Barclaycard advert then, consider yourself lucky then ;)

No way! That rules, man.

Goal? GOAL? GOOOAAALL! (music) Don't look down, ...

All the Esure ad's...calm down it's just an advert...Hello Mum...ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH

Mav, it's crap.

3 more I've hated tonight.

1) The ITV JVC ident - MEXICAN WAVE FAMILY! It's just plain crap.
2) Gillette. Jesus. F**king. Christ. Need I say more?
3) Any 'Accident Helpline'/etc ad. 'I recieved £5,400 for my stupidity. Interestingly, there are no victims mentioned - I simply set back my small scale employers considerably, because I am patheitc and can't look out for food on the floor. I hurt my knee, so much so I couldn't go to see Spencer in his remedial classes'.

The Yes car credit adverts, it's just a shame no other woman is as keen to say yes as that dozy bint.

Any accident claim advert, particularly the one with the fat guy, which ends *let us take the pain from your claim* if i hadn't been put off using that company before with the sheer cornyness of it that definitly did the trick.

The Dixons adverts.

I can't decide if the walrus-man advert you point out LaLakers is in fact a deliberatly humorous one or not.

Ah glad you know which one i'm on about, thought it was just a local one. It's not just me is it? That advert is just so painfully corny with someone handing him a phone from the side and all that tripe.

The best (ie. worst) one is the "I'm so fat I broke my chair and spilt coffee over my giant body. I got £8,000 for my obesity!" one.
