    I hear that prick 10 times a day and it's now part of my psyche. If that was the aim, then hat's off to Aldi.

    Forced to watch this ad when using the RTE player.

    I bumped into her years later. She was working serving food for a popular vendor in the farmers markets in Dublin. I think she's a friend of theirs. She was quality back in the day.

    Smithwicks trying to get in on the craft beer fad is a bit pathetic.

    It's no worse than Heineken (Cute Hoor), Guinness (Hop House 13) and Bulmers (Clonmel 1650) doing it. And at least Smithwicks are up front about who's making it.

    That Health and Safety ad with Otto Pilot from Airplane! being squashed and transformed into a human for some reason. ZAZ never thought of that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,349 ✭✭✭Jimmy Garlic


    It has been mentioned before but deserves to be mentioned again - The profoundly annoying young fella Aldi Paul O'Connell ad. Really bad, makes me want to put a mug through the TV every time I see it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,497 ✭✭✭woejus


    That euromillions ad, with the island bought by this guy. Feck off.

    See also the

    "it's the foawrteenth time I've seen them on this tewer jackpawt"

    F.O.A.D.

    It's almost enough for me to stop buying lottery tickets, but I need that money.

    "Just like you we're in it for the love of it".

    Well if that's the case why the **** are you charging for it.

    The always ultra(or some such product)ad featuring sport-playing teenage girls claiming they were told to "give up"-no they weren't,makes teenage girls out to be weak and not capable...utter rubbish....(oh and if she's not playing aged 20 it'll be coz she's discovered boys,not because she's too weak or whatever lame stereotype they've tried to infer....)

    Rant over...

    The brokeback mountain ad for Barry's tea.

    Great call. I hate those ads, mainly because there seems to be an underlying assumption that people have that women can't do stuff, but "always" are there to correct that narrative. It plays a blinder at insulting women and somehow as a man I'm meant to feel someway to blame.

    It's a load of hocum!

    Avenmore super (lol) milk. The jingle (la,la, la, la, la, la) is catchy but crikey, it's on with no exaggeration, about 100 times per day!

    I went to bed and couldn't properly sleep and the whole night in my head I was repeating la,la, la, la, la, la.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,914 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    There is a serious mis-casting issue in that Paul O'Connell Lidl ad. I mean there's no way that young lad could inspire his team-mates with a speech, let alone make it onto a rugby field. He's fricking tiny. Looked terrified when Paul clasped his eyes on him at the end.

    As for that coffee ad with Will.I.Am. They way he is "dancing" at the end holding the cup is so annoying. Makes me hate the coffee culture even more.

    Any chance of a vid?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,900 ✭✭✭trashcan


    Two new nominations:

    1. The annoying little brat in the Paul O'Connell ad "if someone isn't filling a gap, you get on his case." Shut up you little sh1t. I just want O'Connell to slap him around the head at the end.

    2. The smug git with his "Do I look like I have time for a headache ?" Piss off. Since when have you had to set aside time to have a headache ?

    It says something that I couldn't tell you what either of those ads are for. Second one is some kind of headache tablet obviously.

    Edit - just saw I'm not the first to mention the Paul O'Connell ad - turns out it's for Aldi.

    I doubt it. It was an ad from about 15 years ago and the basic premise is "we'll approve anything you ask for, we'll get it back from you no problem". I'd say BoI are keen to get that ad erased from history given the problems faced later in the decade.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,069 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    the energia guinea-pig ad ....is that suppose to be Francis Brennan's voice??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,855 ✭✭✭I said


    The just eat ad.The big party with all the food, who paid for all that artery blocking crud.
    Not one overweight person among them real life me hole.

    The disembodied mouth singing that painfully irritating "t-t-t-t-touch me, I wanna be touched" song from The Rocky Horror Picture Show. :mad:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,827 ✭✭✭madmaggie


    MICHAELLL!!

    Oh god, I hate those Sh1tebags in the Chicago town pizza ad.

  • Registered Users Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    Friend Reeeeequest!!!
