Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

Those poncy ads for the new clear Bundy are getting on my nerves now - mainly due to the fact that they're on fox every 5 minutes.

I see how it can be annoying but I think its funny because its so stupid and over the top lol...

One I saw today for the first time and I already hate it is for a yogurt, can't remember the name of it with some blonde bimbo (actually looks like someone well known but can't think who) and she was just dancing around behind some mirrors with a stupid smile on her face :rolleyes:

Sorry for the vague description lol, maybe someone knows the one. It was on during the Sunday Footy Show.

I didn't mind it the first few times I saw it - and it did its job because I got curious enough to notice what it was advertising.

But it's getting ridiculously played out and now I just groan when it comes on again for the 5th time that hour.

It's Sarah Murdoch and yeah, I saw that watching the footy show too. Spent the whole time thinking 'WTF have I just witnessed??' Just the once and I never want to see it again.

Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

Ads in australia have hit an all time low - but hey they are the demographics. It paints a depressing picture of the kind of consumers aussies are.

I want to punch that aggressive stay at home mother who watches the circle thinking the world revolves around her and the fruits of her loin while she has a go at her dumb arse boofey bloke of a hubby who see's no reason to get life insurance.

Hubby dies? Get a job.

Yeah the Virgin ad with the ranga.

This is worst one for me this year

Sure, the Coles ads are astonishingly annoying, but in an inane jingle fashion. Grating, but that's it. But what the hell is this ad pushing? Ah, the glorious yuppified tie-over-the-shoulder latte-lunch vision of the world that PayWave will bring, joyous Brave New World where all our chewing will be synchronized, and our blinking is in unison (Skinner: "I love that sound"). There all those utterly stylish and with-it folks are, tap-tap-tapping away, positively revelling in their salad sandwiches, and along comes that inconsiderate bastard wanting to pay with, can you imagine?, cash. So shocking is this to his fellow office workers that they proceed to rear end each in other is disbelief.

Luckily, the smirking prick that follows cash-boy raises his eyebrow, gets the PayWave rolling again, and life returns to its tapping glory.

This ad is disturbing. How they thought having people all lined up like they are in a conveyor belt all doing the same thing, looking the same and all robotic acting is promoting a cashless lifestyle is beyond me. And then portraying someone for daring to be different being looked down is horrible. Argh it's horrid.

Australia deserves the ads it gets.

It took me a few views to notice the camel but when I did, I burst out laughing.

Great post :thumbsu: Lol'd at the Brave New World and Simpsons references.
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

The Hungry Jack's ad where Fitzy interviews the people at the footy. The bird at the end, where the bloke talks about his "guns" just the toothy look she gives really shits me.

Well they are Collingwood supporters,so they're going to freak you out
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

That stupid Budget advertisement with that dumb slapper in the shower with her husband shaving. ****ing s**t ad.
Oh yeah - that silly "Boo-zhay boo-zhay" woman and her creepy daddy complex really gives me the sh*ts. Ridiculous.

Why would a reasonably attractive french chick be with a crusty old Aussie guy, he can't have any money as he needs to save money on his insurance.
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

Don't know if it has been mentioned and i havent seen it over a week BUT

The car ad that uses "The Message" as a jingle.

WTF

Did the ad agency even research to find out what the song is all about and how pathetic it is to use in an ad about a middle class white suburban guy who seems to be bitchslapped by his wife and needs to go to shops to get nappies? And then they have 3 sterotype crunk rappers miming to song.

WTF???

The message is a song about the social issues facing black people in New York during the late 70s and early 80s when the city was broke and there were crime ghettos everywhere.

A case of the chorus having the hook and people not listening enough to lyrics. I feel the same when its played in a club. Sure its got nice breaks..but arrrrghhhh!

Grand Master Flash sold out!!!!
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

There's a new ad pissing me off - it's the ad with Sarah Murdoch dancing around looking like she might be auditioning for a porno and then all of a sudden at the end it's revealed as a yogurt ad :confused:

Yogurt ads are becoming more annoying than bank ads

That shitty little tat on her arm makes her look like a tramp.

It's a Kia ad.

It's fairly old now, by ad standards. I was surprised when I saw it again last week.
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

What about the Fusion shaver ad with 'Peter' interviewing himself using the shaver as the microphone. LAME!!
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

The QBE insurance ad with the Swans. So not funny.......
 
Re: Ads that piss you off [2]

One of the new Foxtel ads really annoys me. Hodge wins a centre clearance, runs to 50 and drills a goal. Only issue is, the centre clearance he kicks to the left of screen, but the goal goes through right of screen.
Why not show the goal go through from the same angle? Or pick a different goal?

Edit: It's actually a Powerade ad. It's just so weird watching it... Hodge kicks the ball from 50 going to the left of screen, cut to another shot where ball bounces through going right of the screen. :confused:
