Adverts that irritate and entertain

[aeonsource]

Am I the only one who is really kinda weirded out by those Argos adverts?

I think boots do themselves a great disservice by not advertising their meal deals more, one of the best around in my view.

You're right, but perhaps they can't find a way to make them attractive only to women.

If anyone likes the latest Nationwide 'on your side' adverts, then the theme is available to download from their website in mp3 format until Friday this week. Appears they have had a number of requests for it.

I can't stand that Visit California ad - especially as it opens with one of those Kardashian bimbos reading a "Quantum Physics" book by the pool. Aye right.

The worst thing is their delusion that "everyone thinks.. we're rockstars/celebrities/into yoga/live in bikinis".

Err no, that's not what most people think. So much for being self-effacing. Its *really* not what people think.

Betty White is the saving grace of the ad, which is why I've held my peace until now.

(Unless I moaned about this a year or more ago. Its possible.)

It's the same old story. Take a fairly successful, memorable idea....



and change it, ruining it.

I don't know about you all, but I find with the fact I hardly ever watch Live commercial TV, I see so few adverts that when I see the odd advert, they tend to annoy me more than they ever did before. Especially if you can't skip or fast forward through them, and when its the same adverts OVER and OVER!

This advert just gave me the dry heaves

[Jovis]

Why have two ideas in one? Have the annoying kid or the skip, not both.

[nidave]

URGH

the guy is cute

Why does the man have the voice of a child? And why does he keep referring to himself as mummy?
