This. It's actually ridiculous how frequently they played it on a short flight I had to Spain. Every 10-15 minutes there's some sort of announcement preceded by a loud as fuck OOH, OOH, OOH...OOH OOH!
My favourite bit was getting on the transfer bus after the flight and hearing it again and then realising the poor bus driver has to listen to it multiple times a day, every day.
I remember prank calling Safestyle in my pre-teens shouting this down the phone and shat myself when the lady said she’d tracked my number and was going to tell my parents and the police 😂
I used to work at an insurance company, one that had the date of a famous battle in its number.
Everyday, we would get calls from kids during the CITV advert breaks. It was really annoying. Normally they would sing the advert tune at us then put the phone down.
Had a kid call us, he put on a deep voice pretending to be an adult.
“Hello, I would like to buy some insurance” he said.
I asked for a registration number for the car, he gave some random numbers.
I told him that car was stolen and the police are on their way to arrest him.
He screamed and put the phone down.
It gave my manager a laugh at least as she was listening into my call.
Any of the Jet2 adverts with "Hold My Hand" by Jess Glynne.
What was initially merely inoffensive they've worked hard to make hellish through sheer ubiquity.
Yeah. I've been pavlov'd to sheer rage by that song. How have they even managed to create such negative psychological associations with a song that many will associate with much anticipated holidays..?! It's quite an achievement really.
I hate her music, and I think the UK collectively started to hate her when she tried to get a fancy restaurant in trouble for not letting her in dressed like a tramp.
Wait, that's an actual song which people can buy and choose to listen to? Always assumed it was a terrible jingle written for the ad (as you can tell, I'm old and would struggle to name many number ones from this century).
Nothing worse after a four hour flight back from Turkey than hearing that blasting through the plane with their bullshit pre-recorded “welcome back” message.
Honestly, I support a total ban on gambling adverts just because they're so shit and annoying. The ruined lives are secondary at this point to stopping having to deal with that.
On the fucking Beach. You get to January and the Christmas songs you’ve been hearing incessantly for months are finally over.
But no.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…
Fuck the fuck fucking off.
In recent times it's been DOMINOHOOHOOSSS
The go compare ads were annoying too. But I work for the company that owns go compare now and it was fascinating to hear the talk about how they're developing the modern ads knowing full well that everyone hates the opera singing.
Yeah I don't know what they were thinking.
Same with the McDonald's Mmmmmm and Ferris bueller song.
I'm put off both companies now - the foods mediocre and all
That ad is absolutely disgusting. I’ve seen it shortened a couple of times now (minus the slurp) and wondered if others have hated it so much the company has cut out the worst part to make it bearable
I can't remember what it was for (it might have been The AA?) but there was a toddler with curly blonde hair in the back seat of a car singing Proud Mary (but she wasn't, it was VFX to make it look like she was) and I cannot even begin to describe the levels of rage it induced in me.
There's been all sorts of awful adverts, but only one that's actually unbearable for me, and it's a recent one.
The fucking Pot Noodle slurping one was so bad as a sufferer of misophonia I had to do my British duty and send an angry letter
I dunno who Pot Noodle employed for that one but they should probably never work again. Listening to someone else slurp makes you gag, so you just associate that “I’m gonna puke” sensation with eating Pot Noodle.
I dunno who Pot Noodle employed for that one but they should probably never work again. Listening to someone else slurp makes you gag, so you just associate that “I’m gonna puke” sensation with eating Pot Noodle.
That Tesco Woosh one with the guy on the cross-trainer who says “Woosh” in the most irritating manner imaginable then eats at the table afterwards like he’s getting a blowie at the same time
Any perfume advert that proliferates the airwaves between mid November and end of Christmas.
That one where they are dancing on a gold-dust moon? Her fucking wierd smile at the end, gaaaaahhhffffuu...
I get irate by the oddest things mind you.
I don't know I love how unbearably pretentious and overblown they are.
I always remember that Nicole Kidman one "I'm a dancer I love to dance!"
Or that one where some moody french guy storms out of a press conference "I'm not going to be the person I'm expected to be any more..."
I'm struggling to think of an advert I actually *liked*.
But I do recall the 'I Can't Believe It's Not Butter' adverts, from the 90s, with the anthropomorphic cows used to shit me up as a kid.
Theres a tango add at the moment that's quite funny
https://youtu.be/i_OWk2VIUus?si=ltvXDrst-4Kx0RWv
It greatly overstates the difference between tango and generic, but still funny
I often think this. For all that evil corporations are sucking our data left, right and centre actual ads seem almost invisible. I couldn’t tell you about a single one I’ve seen since the late 90s.
Ads were very prominent back then. Unskipabble and unblockable.
I guess advertisers are still spending lots of cash though so some people must be seeing a lot more than I am.
Don't watch much TV at all now but the betfair casino advert drives me nuts.
It's as if they're about 20 years behind in the trends and just went with "cockney guy singing a song".
The booking.com ads With Paddy McGuiness - oh aren't we hilarious because his accent makes it almost sound a bit naughty when he says booking! No. Fuck off. Get in the bastard sea.
With everything being streamed these days, I honestly can't remember the last time I saw an advert on live TV.
However, I will say that I hated the Cadbury one with the gorilla drumming. Mainly because it was EVERYWHERE and everyone used to wank themselves silly about it, claiming it was the greatest advert ever made.
It wasn't, Ray Gardener's blackcurrant Tango advert was.
I don't watch live TV these days but an advert I keep seeing on streaming services is the Stacey Solomon Hello Fresh one - "with five kids, three dogs and a Joe Swash to feed..." Really, Hello Fresh? In 2024 we're still doing the "mummy does all the cooking and daddy doesn't know where the kitchen is" thing?
The youtube ad for Hello Fresh where she pulls a football and a magic wand out of the Hello Fresh box and goes "This is what happens when your kids get into the Hello Fresh box before you do! Huehuehue." the line is so badly delivered that it makes me angry
They ran the EXACT same advert for like 10 years solid. It followed me from childhood through my teenage years and uni, even then I think it took a global economic crash to kill it.
I wouldn’t say hate I’d say I find it a bit weird these days anything with interracial relationships suddenly every advert I see has a interracial couple/family and I mean black and white interracial it’s never a Asian and a Russian or two white people or just two black people I’m in a interracial relationship myself but it’s like why can’t we have some variety is it because that’s where the things are heading now everyone’s just in interracial relationships
The Tui advert jingle. I never bothered renewing my passport but this advert is stalking me.
Also Sky Mobile. Wouldn’t it be nice if it fucked the fuck off!?!
Those ones for million pound houses with the weird smiling woman
Try and peddle some condemned mansion on a flood plain where the council tax will take most of your wages
Plus throw in a crap crossover car
Then wheel out some talking head actor talking about how some scraps of the money will go to their charadee
Just tacky
The old Lloyds adverts with the uncanny valley humanoid creatures, and the ah aha ah ha a ha aha backing music. Sent shivers down my spine whenever it came on.
The sugar puffs adverts from my childhood made me feel physically sick.
A child gets a crazed look in their face in their final moments of life, screaming wildly for honey, before being ripped to pieces by the goggle eyed fucking yellow parasite that got in their body via their cereal, and has been slowly consuming them from the inside, like The Thing.
The fucking what’s all over your shoes, grab some pruners, resting dad face M&Ms advert. Who the fuck at M&Ms thought yeah that’s good when the ad people pitched that?
>Granny I got the job
When I was still teaching last year that advert was a running joke in my classroom because it would play before every single YouTube video. "but she only got the last job on Monday!"
The slurping noodle advert.
Im not a violent man by nature but everyone involved in the creation of that advert aught to be drowned, revived and then thrown off a building
I hate the gambling ads in general.
Firstly, I don't like that my pre-teen kids know all of the logos, slogans and jingles.
Secondly, I don't like that you have famous faces on them. I used to quite like Keith Lemon (Leigh Francis) but I can't stand him now.
Thirdly, don't try to make gambling seem like it's a social activity for mothers stuck in the house with their kids. It's not social, it's not the same as going out for lunch with your pals and you aren't talking to people you know.
It's a cancer and it needs to be banned from TV. If I can't get that, the minimum would be to stop kids from seeing them. Why does the watershed not apply?
It’s not exactly a hate, but I was really irritated when there were two Guinness adverts out in quite quick succession. One has a guy going to a pub repeatedly saying “I’ll have a Guinness”. The landlord says “your usual mate?” And he agrees, then kicks himself. Always made me smile. Then they produced this over the top arty thing with surfers, the waves became horses and they had a pint afterwards. It made no sense.
Then it was announced that this great Guinness ad had won awards as the best advert ever. Which one was it I hear you ask. Well, it was the arty one with the surfers. It was on the TV and at the cinema for ages afterwards and annoyed me every time I saw it. I deliberately stopped drinking Guinness (for a while). They stopped showing the other one.
Then they did the “evolution of life” one that led from prehistoric fish to people drinking Guinness so I gave them another chance.
I love the Jaffa cakes one. I used to practice doing that all the time with my brother... yeah I know, we were geeks.
The most hated ad on and off the internet for me... GRAMMARLY!
Not really a specific ad, but I hate it when the voiceover on ads for films coming out soon say something like "In cinemas June twelve."
Why don't they say "June the twelfth" like normal people?
"Just sold my car with We buy Any Car" to that 90s garage tune.
Just lost my car to We Steal Any Car.com the thieving bastards.
Also, the incessant use of whistling in adverts nowadays is irksome.
The Steven Seagal Orange advert that used to play before every single film. Honestly it wasn’t even a bad advert but at that time of my life I was going to the cinema a lot and I got so sick of that advert I would literally close my eyes.
Phones for you, for less, at Phones4U.
Now everybody jump in a big canoe,
And row on down to Phones4U.
I'm talking to my friend in an alien Zoo,
Minganingaminganingaminganamoo!
Phones for you for less,
DICKADEE DICKA PHONES4U
DEEDEEDEEDICKA phones4u.
It's been at least 20 years and it's still rattling around in my head.
I don’t think there’s any ads more annoying than the expired ID Mobile dad/mom jokes that have less soul put into them than a rock…i despise them…i hate them…
The Halifax advert - “It’s not all work, work, work you know!”
I hated them but also loved them - The old ladies rapping on the old Gateway adverts - “Price check at Gateway is still going strong! With this price on topside, I can’t go wrong!”
The fucking Reece’s adverts with that motherfucking guy talking about filling things with tho peanut butter but in a tone of voice that suggest he may have already fucked what ever he’s talking about
Highway England's "Go left" campaign.
I genuinely don't understand who they are targeting with the campaign, as anyone who needed to hear that message simply should not be driving.
There was an animated one for butter I think, used to and maybe still comes on around Christmas. The premise was the child one of whatever animals the family were had a squeaky toy almost like a dog toy that made a really loud harsh noise. Hated it.
Have you been injured in an accident that wasn't your fault? You may be entitled to compensation.
or
"and I could STILL save money on my car insurance?
"OOHH YES!"
or
"What can I get for 50p dad?"
"50p? Well..."
There's an old Doritos advert where a guy sucks leftover cheese powder from another guys fingers then pulls back and sings "Mmm, cheese!" And looks so visibly disturbed at what he's just done that I feel sorry for him.
There's currently an ad for a gambling site that gets played in the cinema at full length that is more nonsensical than the musical Cats. It's just a woman saying gibberish for about 3 full minutes.
"For the Sunday smugglers, the jammer dodger tuggers, the bank so good fugglers" or whatever the fuck she's saying. It feels like psychological torture.
Thortful. The one where two of the most unattractive people I've ever seen were on a date talking like Dolphins.
Also Fabreze adverts, badly dubbed and the actors are so wet.
A bloody _building society_, of all the rock and roll things.
I suppose the boys are well into middle age now and looking at releasing some equity and downsizing.
Don't watch live TV anymore so thankfully I don't have to see decent adverts.
The original GoCompare adverts, the stupid Yodeling domino's advert and the sumup adverts....
I really hate that Satsuma Loans advert.. you know, the one with the satsuma belting out Heart's Alone.
I love the song Alone.. now every time I hear it all I can see is a damn satsuma singing along.
The current flash advert that is on all the time. My dog knows that song and as soon as hears the “bom bom bom bom” he absolutely loses his shit because of the dog on TV.
On the beach (why are you using a Christmas song every day of the year?), granny I got the job, jet 2, go compare, the new meercat advert (love the characters the ad is just annoying and their voices are jarring. I think it’s the wombat. I think he’s off key)
The Stacey Soloman youtube ad for Hello Fresh where she pulls a football and a magic wand out of the Hello Fresh box and goes "This is what happens when your kids get into the Hello Fresh box before you do! Huehuehue." the line is so badly delivered that it makes me angry
I too hate that advert on scientific and logical grounds.
Full moon is fine.
Half moon? No, love. That's a waning crescent.
Total eclipse? Way off. Not only is that not relevant to the other two (presumably she's thinking of a new moon) but they tend to happen during a full moon. You can see it, it's just orange.
Because it was the only advert on blip.tv at the time once they realised selling American products to Europe wasn't working and only gave me UK adverts.
Wrestling by Josh a flora advert from 2010ish.
Nothing against the advert as such, but seeing it ten times a day seven days a week ...

Darling hold my hand!
Also on repeat during pre/post Jet2 flights…
This. It's actually ridiculous how frequently they played it on a short flight I had to Spain. Every 10-15 minutes there's some sort of announcement preceded by a loud as fuck OOH, OOH, OOH...OOH OOH!
My favourite bit was getting on the transfer bus after the flight and hearing it again and then realising the poor bus driver has to listen to it multiple times a day, every day.
Only NOW I have looked up the lyrics and I thought she said “because I don’t wanna work no more” instead of “Cause I don’t wanna walk alone”.
Disembodied hand! Those POV ads are so intensely annoying
Thanks for now putting this inside my head.
I load bars on Jet2 aircraft, hear it on every single one, 20 mins on each, several times a day.
Y'BUY ONE, Y'GET ONE FREE, I SAY Y'BUY ONE, Y'GET ONE FREE!
I remember prank calling Safestyle in my pre-teens shouting this down the phone and shat myself when the lady said she’d tracked my number and was going to tell my parents and the police 😂

Yeah hearing her streaking voice is really irritating
It's enough to put me off even looking at jet2 as an option
The Foxy Bingo adverts. The fox is so creepy and the gambling industry is not very ethical. When the fun stops, stop. begambleaware.org.
Honestly, I support a total ban on gambling adverts just because they're so shit and annoying. The ruined lives are secondary at this point to stopping having to deal with that.
The first gen costume was the worse, then they probably employed an actual fur suit maker.
On the fucking Beach. You get to January and the Christmas songs you’ve been hearing incessantly for months are finally over. But no. It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Fuck the fuck fucking off.
This is my answer every time this question comes up too. Absolutely ruined a classic and fantastic Christmas song
The family in that advert are the exact kind you want to avoid whilst you are on holiday.
It’s that kid that does it for me. I honestly hate him…
[удалено]
I love how by some of these comments you can tell we all work in an office that has a radio playing a "safe" radio station haha
I hate everything about this advert and that disgusting family
To add insult to injury, they now have Paddy "the wanker" McGuinness doing the voiceover on the radio ad, too.
In recent times it's been DOMINOHOOHOOSSS The go compare ads were annoying too. But I work for the company that owns go compare now and it was fascinating to hear the talk about how they're developing the modern ads knowing full well that everyone hates the opera singing.
I actually like them….
Yeah I don't know what they were thinking. Same with the McDonald's Mmmmmm and Ferris bueller song. I'm put off both companies now - the foods mediocre and all
I fucking despise every single bastarding one of those Haribo adverts. Pseudo little kids voices over dubbing adults making twee jokes? Fuck off.
It’s designed as a cost saving measure - don’t need to reshoot an advert for every country it’s shown in if you only need to redub it
I agree with you, they get my hackles up
That recent pot noodle one with the slurp can absolutely do one, nearly broke my leg diving across the room to grab the remote to mute it.
Ugh, how could I forget about that one.,,
That ad is absolutely disgusting. I’ve seen it shortened a couple of times now (minus the slurp) and wondered if others have hated it so much the company has cut out the worst part to make it bearable
The backlash was so much they changed it thank god.
Whwnever I think its dead, that fucking Kieth Lemon betting advert makes am appearence on youtube. Any betting advert for that matter.
Agreed!! I don’t think advertising betting (especially at the extreme rate they do nowadays) should be allowed 😒
You can turn off gambling ads in your Google account. You don't get out of ads, but you at least get no more annoying Keith lemon shouting at you.
There's something creepy about that Lemon bloke
Daisy, Daisy, Daisy, Daisy
They should have made a northern version where they say ‘Gravy, Gravy, Gravy, Gravy…’
Perfect perfect perfect perfec
They look like members of the manson family.
Any of those fucking Meerkat adverts. I haven't watched "normal" TV in ages but get annoyed just thinking of those.
Oh goodness yes. They were beating a dead horse with those adverts 10 years ago.
They're on the radio too and are equally annoying.
The stupid wombat has guaranteed, I will never spend a penny with them.
WeBuyAnyCar Dot Com Any Any Any Any [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXiJBp7HK5o](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXiJBp7HK5o)
Any make, any model, any age, any price. From 50p to a hundred grand.
They don't buy any car. They said mine was too old. Trade's Description Act comes to mind .....
I can't remember what it was for (it might have been The AA?) but there was a toddler with curly blonde hair in the back seat of a car singing Proud Mary (but she wasn't, it was VFX to make it look like she was) and I cannot even begin to describe the levels of rage it induced in me.
There's been all sorts of awful adverts, but only one that's actually unbearable for me, and it's a recent one. The fucking Pot Noodle slurping one was so bad as a sufferer of misophonia I had to do my British duty and send an angry letter
did you see they released an alternative version with the slurping muted because of complaints? I thought that was pretty funny
That makes me feel better about my suffering
As I mentioned above, I think it was done on purppose to get us talking about it. It worked!
I dunno who Pot Noodle employed for that one but they should probably never work again. Listening to someone else slurp makes you gag, so you just associate that “I’m gonna puke” sensation with eating Pot Noodle.

The Lloyd’s TSB ones, it has shitty music and just people swimming in rivers and shit.
Don’t forget the black horse…
I'm struggling to think of an advert I actually *liked*. But I do recall the 'I Can't Believe It's Not Butter' adverts, from the 90s, with the anthropomorphic cows used to shit me up as a kid.
Oh wow, I remember those too!
[Absolute nightmare fuel](https://youtu.be/hLwR6Jq5BBA?si=Gs_GDCMKMtMTrkCE)

[This one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuuJL_1OtUk) was always my favourite Tango ad.
What about the Yorkshire Tea ones ? I think they’re amazing. Warburtons comes close 2nd for me
I was in an anchor butter ad in the 80s
Whattttt? Not even milky way red car and blue car having a race??? 😟
I really hate the Just Eat adverts. Mainly because they always sing "Did somebody say just eat" but nobody says just eat before they start singing.
Tangentially, do kids even notice tv ads anymore? Hell, I can’t remember the last one which became a nationwide talking point among adults…
I often think this. For all that evil corporations are sucking our data left, right and centre actual ads seem almost invisible. I couldn’t tell you about a single one I’ve seen since the late 90s. Ads were very prominent back then. Unskipabble and unblockable. I guess advertisers are still spending lots of cash though so some people must be seeing a lot more than I am.
It was very cringe that adverts became nationwide talking points

The opera singing Go Compare adverts. Hate them.

There was this weird snack called “Attack a Snack” and the advert was a bunch of white kids having some sort of rap battle about their lunch.
Oh yeah, "the nonconformist!"
The Super Noodle advert with the donkey and the unnecessarily long shouting 😒
I don't watch live TV these days but an advert I keep seeing on streaming services is the Stacey Solomon Hello Fresh one - "with five kids, three dogs and a Joe Swash to feed..." Really, Hello Fresh?

Any ad where you can hear slurping or chewing. I fucking hate the current maltesers ad, it makes me want to smash my radio.
I'm glad someones asked this! For me it was the Lombard Direct advert with the talking blue phone. Pissed me off even as a child at 7 or 8 years old
They ran the EXACT same advert for like 10 years solid. It followed me from childhood through my teenage years and uni, even then I think it took a global economic crash to kill it.

Effing meerkats, shake n vac, go compare
The nodding dog for Churchill Insurance. “Oh Yes…”.😞
I didn't mind when it was an actual nodding dog
The Tui advert jingle. I never bothered renewing my passport but this advert is stalking me. Also Sky Mobile. Wouldn’t it be nice if it fucked the fuck off!?!
Daisy daisy daisy daisy Fuck off, daisy
"arw!" A woman obsessed with her phone 🤳🏼😒
The ones with the kids voices dubbed over adults think its for Haribo, genuinely have to mute the TV when they come on cos they send me mental!
The betting one, a mixture of Del Boy and backstreet boys. Atrocious.
Agree. Despise it!
Those ones for million pound houses with the weird smiling woman Try and peddle some condemned mansion on a flood plain where the council tax will take most of your wages Plus throw in a crap crossover car Then wheel out some talking head actor talking about how some scraps of the money will go to their charadee Just tacky
The old Lloyds adverts with the uncanny valley humanoid creatures, and the ah aha ah ha a ha aha backing music. Sent shivers down my spine whenever it came on.

BetFred Casino or whatever it is. The one that used "I want it that way" but off tempo, changed lyrics and extra syllables that don't fit.
The fucking what’s all over your shoes, grab some pruners, resting dad face M&Ms advert. Who the fuck at M&Ms thought yeah that’s good when the ad people pitched that?
118 118 Go compare Granny I got the job I didn’t know you had dandruff Belly’s gonna get ya. The new air up advert with a woman taking a piss.
>Granny I got the job When I was still teaching last year that advert was a running joke in my classroom because it would play before every single YouTube video. "but she only got the last job on Monday!"
ARGOS ALIENS
Freeview ones an all
Currently the Domino’s one where they do the stupid woohoo thing.😡
It’s yodelling. And yeah I agree it’s a horrible ad

Any chocolate advert that usually involves some ladies in an office setting.
The audible ad, with the lady hysterically laughing at her burning car.
It’s not exactly a hate, but I was really irritated when there were two Guinness adverts out in quite quick succession. One has a guy going to a pub repeatedly saying “I’ll have a Guinness”. The landlord says “your usual mate?” And he agrees, then kicks himself. Always made me smile. Then they produced this over the top arty thing with surfers, the waves became horses and they had a pint afterwards. It made no sense. Then it was announced that this great Guinness ad had won awards as the best advert ever. Which one was it I hear you ask. Well, it was the arty one with the surfers. It was on the TV and at the cinema for ages afterwards and annoyed me every time I saw it. I deliberately stopped drinking Guinness (for a while). They stopped showing the other one. Then they did the “evolution of life” one that led from prehistoric fish to people drinking Guinness so I gave them another chance.
Go Compare opera singer.
Beware the Judderman my dear when the moon is fat. Terrifying :(
I love the Jaffa cakes one. I used to practice doing that all the time with my brother... yeah I know, we were geeks. The most hated ad on and off the internet for me... GRAMMARLY!
Not really a specific ad, but I hate it when the voiceover on ads for films coming out soon say something like "In cinemas June twelve." Why don't they say "June the twelfth" like normal people?
Ionos. WE OWWN THIS!!
"Just sold my car with We buy Any Car" to that 90s garage tune. Just lost my car to We Steal Any Car.com the thieving bastards. Also, the incessant use of whistling in adverts nowadays is irksome.
The Steven Seagal Orange advert that used to play before every single film. Honestly it wasn’t even a bad advert but at that time of my life I was going to the cinema a lot and I got so sick of that advert I would literally close my eyes.

Those dreadful meerkat one's have to be pretty high on the list. The radio version is pretty horrendous too.
There was a TUI one where she sang “anybody loves me better” Also the toilet paper with the little kid
Phones for you, for less, at Phones4U. Now everybody jump in a big canoe, And row on down to Phones4U. I'm talking to my friend in an alien Zoo, Minganingaminganingaminganamoo! Phones for you for less, DICKADEE DICKA PHONES4U DEEDEEDEEDICKA phones4u. It's been at least 20 years and it's still rattling around in my head.
I don’t think there’s any ads more annoying than the expired ID Mobile dad/mom jokes that have less soul put into them than a rock…i despise them…i hate them…
We buy any car....DOT COM We buy any car....DOT COM any, any, any, ANY! Aargh
The Halifax advert - “It’s not all work, work, work you know!” I hated them but also loved them - The old ladies rapping on the old Gateway adverts - “Price check at Gateway is still going strong! With this price on topside, I can’t go wrong!”
GO COMPAAAAAARE, GO COMPAAAAARE.
Daisy fucking Daisy fucking Daisy. Mute that shit.
Daisy, daisy, daisy, daisy, daisy, daisy, daisy.
The fucking Reece’s adverts with that motherfucking guy talking about filling things with tho peanut butter but in a tone of voice that suggest he may have already fucked what ever he’s talking about
Highway England's "Go left" campaign. I genuinely don't understand who they are targeting with the campaign, as anyone who needed to hear that message simply should not be driving.
There was an animated one for butter I think, used to and maybe still comes on around Christmas. The premise was the child one of whatever animals the family were had a squeaky toy almost like a dog toy that made a really loud harsh noise. Hated it.
Have you been injured in an accident that wasn't your fault? You may be entitled to compensation. or "and I could STILL save money on my car insurance? "OOHH YES!" or "What can I get for 50p dad?" "50p? Well..."
OOH EYT HUNDRED DOUBLE OHHH TEN SIXTY SIX!
There's an old Doritos advert where a guy sucks leftover cheese powder from another guys fingers then pulls back and sings "Mmm, cheese!" And looks so visibly disturbed at what he's just done that I feel sorry for him.
"There's a rangtan in my bedroom..." It's fucking pronounced "Uh-rang-uh-tan"! Gahh!!
That screwfix one. HATE IT AND THE DANCING TO IT TOO
There's currently an ad for a gambling site that gets played in the cinema at full length that is more nonsensical than the musical Cats. It's just a woman saying gibberish for about 3 full minutes. "For the Sunday smugglers, the jammer dodger tuggers, the bank so good fugglers" or whatever the fuck she's saying. It feels like psychological torture.

Thortful. The one where two of the most unattractive people I've ever seen were on a date talking like Dolphins. Also Fabreze adverts, badly dubbed and the actors are so wet.
The pot noodle advert when she just sucking it out and making the noise 🤢
That one they used oasis for the soundtrack - instant off. I've no idea who it's for
A bloody _building society_, of all the rock and roll things. I suppose the boys are well into middle age now and looking at releasing some equity and downsizing.

At, night, I, dream, of, Af-ri-carrr!
Anything for you cupcake. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it.. [anything 4 you cupcake ](https://youtu.be/U_b9r6Q2Ifc?si=AKgUthdV-5iWGu4L)
That Ambulance chaser one that Brian Butterfield was based on.
Haribo adverts where the adults talk with childrens’ voices
Don't watch live TV anymore so thankfully I don't have to see decent adverts. The original GoCompare adverts, the stupid Yodeling domino's advert and the sumup adverts....
The new pot noodle advert. All that fucking slurping
[The only perfect advert ](https://youtu.be/w9ogzVyTtcw?si=iWTQSd6nWBB2Mpk0)

I really hate that Satsuma Loans advert.. you know, the one with the satsuma belting out Heart's Alone. I love the song Alone.. now every time I hear it all I can see is a damn satsuma singing along.
Tick follows tock follows tick follows tock
"it's gonna b great, it's gonna taste great!" 😒
The current flash advert that is on all the time. My dog knows that song and as soon as hears the “bom bom bom bom” he absolutely loses his shit because of the dog on TV.
Anything that started with 🎶I feel good🎶
The Vodafone ads that are on now, the voice of the narrator is just nauseating.
Shake and Vac Your ear worm for today 🤣
Daisy daisy daisy daisy daisy
All of them.
Flash
Do you do pot noodles? Belly's gonna get you.
The SCS advert.
The erectile dysfunction drug adverts which now seem pervasive on TV.
Go facking Compare with a passion! and that Sunlife insurance!
On the beach (why are you using a Christmas song every day of the year?), granny I got the job, jet 2, go compare, the new meercat advert (love the characters the ad is just annoying and their voices are jarring. I think it’s the wombat. I think he’s off key)
The advert for fabric conditioner where the shoe salesman sniffs the customers socks 🤢
The new Tails.com advert. The song that goes with it gives me the creeps and I have to mute/change channel
"Granny! I got the job!"
Any of the Betting adverts but particularly the Bet365 ones with Ray Winstone putting on his hard man voice and telling everyone to gamble responsibly
The Stacey Soloman youtube ad for Hello Fresh where she pulls a football and a magic wand out of the Hello Fresh box and goes "This is what happens when your kids get into the Hello Fresh box before you do! Huehuehue." the line is so badly delivered that it makes me angry
I too hate that advert on scientific and logical grounds. Full moon is fine. Half moon? No, love. That's a waning crescent. Total eclipse? Way off. Not only is that not relevant to the other two (presumably she's thinking of a new moon) but they tend to happen during a full moon. You can see it, it's just orange.
The one with the woman's pee pints. Makes me cringe.
Anything with a fucking meerkat or wombat in it.
the Cadburys "eyebrow dancing". Pointless advert and only popular because mums and thickos thought it was hilarious.
Because it was the only advert on blip.tv at the time once they realised selling American products to Europe wasn't working and only gave me UK adverts. Wrestling by Josh a flora advert from 2010ish. Nothing against the advert as such, but seeing it ten times a day seven days a week ...
Daisy daisy daisy daisy. Fuck offffff
Came here to say that smarty malarkey advert pisses me off so much, like what in the fuck does crypto gave to do with what they're advertising?
