The adverts telling you to text this number to meet hot girls.
The guys get so distracted by the boobs on the screen they can't see the call charges at the bottom of the screen.
Add to that, a close up of some of the girls would have you running for the brown paper bag.

I also dislike the absolutely unscientific Adiós ads.

Annoying woman shouting Adiós when I know full well that the product is a pile of crap that will never move one gram of weight of anyone's backside.:mad:

I hate (although they do make me laugh) the cosmetics adverts, where a product is tested on about 274 people, or where the effects of make-up are enhanced in post-production.

If make-up needs enhancing in post-production it can't be that good.

Another one has just come to mind, its that awful loud guy who insists on shouting his way through the advert for "Safestyle" double glazing.
Its one of those rare ads that have united my family in reaching for the controller..."I SAID BUY ONE GET ONE FREE"!!!

As I was looking for this ad on you-tube I found this other "awful" Safestyle ad, with Cannon and Ball in drag.

Which Advert is getting on your nerves at the moment.
 
Ok the one that is really getting on my nerves at the moment is The Corsa advert (the one with the run song) because its on twice in the same break.

Is that an advert or a show sponsor?

There was an advert on yesterday for some kind of breakfast biscuit featuring Johnny Vaughan. Please, please someone make it stop. I'm sure these adverts are intentionally crap and feature the most annoying individuals solely to attract attention.

Agreed, and I am a fan of both Johnny Vaughan and Lisa Snowden.

My worst ad at the moment. Either the Go Compare one or that one with the load of dancers prancing round in time to an electro beat while singing the name of the company over and over again. I won't give the company any free publicity, so won't mention their name, but suffice it to say that they buy and sell cars and have a website.
