One of the nominees for worst ad ever has to be the AMP ads that were on during the olympics

"Hi, I'm you, 20 years from now"

"The house on the point?"
ARGH!!!

Who reckns that informercials are addictive!?! I seriously wanted to buy these titanium knives once!

hehe i was at the pools a couple of days ago and some kids were playing with a chrisco beach ball lol
the ad with the tounge is so gross i nearly threw up the first time i saw it lol
i hate the sultana bran ad too... why would u start singing and dancing in ur kitchen.. unless ud been filled with sugar and you r high.. but i dont think sultana bran has that effect on people
i hate those ads with the sheep for rams home loans.. it just annoys me
and those salads plus ads.. grrr it annoys me how they can like charge $2 for a small thing of cereal when u can buy the box for like $4 and have like 20 servings of it... whats the difference in having it at home and at maccas.. its not like it takes less time or anything at maccas because u gotta do the same thing at home.. without waiting to buy it in the first place
mm thats my two cents

yea all of those crappy maccas ads! esp. the one with the family for the cereals (as cro said) n the ones where d guy asks "would you like to try something different?" n then it shows all these 'different' things (rafting, parachuting, etc.)
why do maccas have to spend so much cash on like 20 new ads when they could just do like 1 or 2 for all of their 'new ranges'...must just like wasting cash

n the one with the tounge's weird but sooooo funni! lol

I heared the "Grapevine song" (the real one) on the radio this morning and since then i have had the sultana bran version in my head all day!! I get WIN instead of 9 so we get really second rate adds. I hate this one where these guys sing "doors doors doors and nobs" to the tune of row row row your boat.

what are some tv ads that really crawl under your skin and piss the fuck outta you?? or if you want you can post what ads you do like :)

i absolutely hate those Dodo internet service ads... "Dodo.. dodo.. connect yourself with dodo.."
Only real reason why i turn on the telly is to play Final Fantasy X or to watch the cricket of dvd.

Annoying TV ads

there are millions out there, i wanna know whose everyone's most hated or fav. i hate the nicorette ad when she's in labour and all she thinking about is 'his cravings' it's like OMG! as if u would be thinking that, you would be more like "u f*&$ing c$&@ how could u get me into this" and as if u would get pregnant to that guy anyway. I swear he's gay, listen to his voice :vangry:

How can I tell you if I don't even know?
The most irritating would have to be the Sultana Bran ad - that is, the older one with that even more irritating little girl in it! But what annoys me the most would have to be Channel 7 doing this - 'My Wife and Kids - NOW!' Just start the show already!

Ah, this thread is making me an irritated person...
