That tit-face who's forming a superband with all the free (ie you actually pay for them) texts for life from T-Mobile.
What an absolute numpty. I hope his guitar string snaps, coils around his neck and strangles him slowly to death.
Very slightly off-topic, has anyone seen that "Dude, where's your railcard?" advert at train stations? It's the first time I've ever wanted to punch a drawing of somebody, but his pasty little face and skaters haircut....  .

How can this thread have got this far without mention of the Disposable Furniture Sham?

That Pantene one last year used to send me into fits of rage
"I don't mind winter, but not what it does to my hair" IT DOESN'T MAKE A LICK OF SENSE! GAAAAHHHH!
That bloody sensodine one too "It goes into this kind of froffy fffoaminess" Shut up you fat tongued idiot!
Speaking of which... The teaching one where the fat tongued teacher links a kids mobile going off in class to kids stitching footballs whilst chained to radiators "wicked phfffone!" and "I love your honesty!" make me cringe every time. Chuffing lefties, get teaching them some maths! Grrr.

And of course there are the annoying and sinister HMG adverts telling you how you should live your life. They don't seem to be suffering the Hard Times in the advertising industry, in fact HMg is now the biggest advertiser, unnerving eh?

Aaaah, I've joined too late to vent my spleen and reading everyone else's post has just put them in my head The other problem is that when there is an advert I like it gets so overdone it too becomes annoying (e.g. the Meerkat ones!). We buy any car is the worst followed by Go Compare. The Vauxhall ones would be far better if the cuddly toys stole the car and the good looking bird's towel fell off IMHO

As if the adverts in the ad breaks wern't bad enough they are bounded by the adverts of whoever is sponsoring the programme. Do TV executives ever pause to wonder why audiences are falling or what sort of cultural pollution they are unleashing?

'Vagisil'. Admittedly, I know sweet 'fanny adams' (see what I did there?) about advertising, but who the hell came up with that name for their cream and wipes!!? What woman wants to go to the chemist and say 'Can I have some Vagisil wipes please' in front of all and sundry.
What's next in their line, 'Cockcream'?

Its not just her in that ad, its the kid afterwards who says "I take granted for the fings dat wot I ave got". Get teaching them some Maths after an English Lesson  .

How about 'celebrities' saying how Sky+ makes their life so easy now they can record any programme??
F*CK OFF!
Ocean Finance - bas*ards! almost makes you want to go back into work rather than lie at home on the Pat n' Mick than put up with 5 minute ad breaks every bloody 10 minutes.
And how many feckin episodes of top gear are there anyway???
I quite like the Meerkats

I love the Meerkats. Also that fit bird in the Corsa ads is cute.

Also ones for 'stool softener' (basically the lager shandy of the laxative world and not fooling anyone) or any ads that use the euphemism 'digestive transit' to describe a poo.
Personally I think that 'digestive transit' is only an acceptable term if used to describe a Ford van full loaded with McVities biscuits.
+1 to what's already been said about the Vauxhall advert - the woman in it is very easy on the eye indeed. Doesn't excuse the the rest of the dire commercial though.

Well, using the mixing bowl of his mum's Kenwood Chef rather than the loo was never going to be a good idea....

Cue 'embarrassing over-the-counter medication' thread featuring those products whose brand name contains either the condition itself or the bit of your anatomy that you use it on, and really don't want to be seen or heard buying (Anusol, Diocalm, Germoloids, etc.).
