The "over fifty plan" things and the ones that make you consider your own death - do advertisers really expect you to confront your own mortality between Top Gear and Porridge. WHEN YOU'RE DEAD! they say with a happy smiley face and a free pen.

I think the ad's about employment? Where the guy is laughing because he was asked for a pay rise... "Anyway Steve, about that pay rise!"

Some stupid loan company where some pondlife is on the phone to them and says "is that your end or mine? Well they'd better not cancel the football". Which makes no sense whatsoever. Who's going to cancel the football, the loan company?? :banghead:

Any of the following (and more, but can't be bothered to type them ATM):

Any online Bingo ad (formula: Take one old song, re-write the words to fit around winning bingo, then have some irritatingly chirpy "bingo winner" sing it)
Any Comparison website ad.
Any Halifax ad (anyone involved in these, especially that irritating pillock Harold, should be shot).
Any phones4u ad (although the company itself actually manages to be more tacky and sick making than it's ads, which is actually impressive).
Any loan company ad (formula: A "family" talks about how they are incredibly happy with their new loan, which enables them to take a holiday while paying off their debts, by incurring larger debts with a "low" interest rate of 30%, which is payable over the next 150 years).
Any "Accident Helpline"/compensation for injury solicitors (read: Ambulance Chaser).

The coco pops ad where kids are encouraged to eat them after school too. That's right kids, you can have chocolate for breakfast and tea now!

The bloke who babbles on-and-on-and-on on Virgin TV when you are looking through the catch-up-on-demand pages... very annoying making it hard to concentrate on what you're looking for...

The ad: I had an accident at work because I was given the wrong ladder.

The last time I did a risk assessment you had to be trained on the use of ladders at work, so if that's the case then according to Health & Safety you are responsible for you own health and safety and those who will be effected by your actions or omissions. Therefore it was his stupid fault for not checking the ladder.
