Not sure if you get the advert back home, but theres an ad for J20 which is currently frying my head. This random guy in a bar says to himself, you know I really like it here. The barman (convinced he's the Chinese dad in the Chinatown edition of Fr. Ted) says you know we like you having you round here. Then a couple says, your a really sound bloke. And a couple says we dont you know all that well, but we really like you too. Heres a drink on us. Is it me or do I find that ad really creepy? :eek:

Their ads sound even worse in Slovenia. :rolleyes:

What comes to my mind at the moment is the Tayto "there's always one".

The one that freaks me out is for that toenail infection thing where the little
gremlin lifts off the nail and climbs in. Jebus the thought of it sends shivers
down my spine.

"Tayto - Theres always one" is annoying as hell, apart from the bit at the end
"All together now ... Yeaaaaaah" :D

Those Ronseal quick drying varnish adverts used to annoy the fook outta me.
Although Apres Match done a class skit, they had a tin with "Contains" written
on it and Frank Stapo saying "does exactly what it says on the tin" :D

Harvey Norman advert's are annoying

In Athlone cinema theres terrible advert for Midland Radio 3 before all the films!

Or the one about taking Terms and Conditions for a perambulation.

That's for First Active isn't it?

Yeah - what is that ad all about ?

How in the name of feck is it meant to make you want to get a '3' mobile phone ?

On the subject of '3' - I hate their whole 'Deal man, Panda, Turtle' etc characters. Again - how is it going to make you want to use their product....? :confused:

Hate the tayto add.

Love the add with the song "in the garden of eden"in the background,it shows all places in ireland and seems really nostalgic then turns out to be an add for contraception.They played that and the cherry ad all weekend at oxygen in between acts with 60,000 people singing along to them

The singing cherry is a great add..
Its new to the Irish market so it makes people wonder what 3 mobile is and look it up... :D

Worked on me! I quite like the ad though.

One of the most annoying ones would be, I think it's for UTV broadband - the one where they all keep 'talking' "free free free free free free". Can't say I like Sky's new Oasis one either, but that's more pointless than annoying.

The 'Eh... Sense!!!?' ads for MacDonalds. And indeed any ad that tries to tap into certain demographics by using 'their language', in this case the stewdent age group.

You know the pair that do the radio ad that goes: "Eurocycle, Eurobaby on the Long Mile Road"

And then they repeat it like five times, with their voices getting higher each time!!!! :mad:

pretty much every ad ...for everything.

Tend to get a giggle out of the new phenomenon of "yellow pack" ads that you see mainly on TV3.

There's some deviant looking geezer selling something or other while wandering round a house being filmed with a camcorder.

And there's one with that dizzy black haired model wan. I think it's for furniture and might have been filmed on a cellphone. :D Oh MMMercy!!!!

Intensely dislike radio ads for my home dot eye eee with that ghoul from the unfunniest programme ever Bachelors Walk. Upwardly Mobile wasn't as woeful ...okay it was but you get my point.

anyone thinking of going 3, dont! that cherry ad is just weird. As for those cartoon characters on those other 3 ads, think they've ripped off the artwork off one or two Super Furry Animal cd covers myself. :eek:

Ian! Wasn't expecting you back for ages! Heard you were dying with flu.

I was. More importantly, what are you doing with this?

Well pal, with you not around the merger was going to go down the pan, wasn't it

Actually, Pal, it wasn't. It's sorted. I spoke to them yesterday, they're signing today.

But you're ill! How come?!

They were even worse when they split up the 'nonsense' and 'sense' bit.

How come no-one mentioned ringtone etc.? The only plus side to them being on all the time is that I can now block them out subconsciously.

For complete sh!te you can't beat the other 3G ad with the little Chinese girl with the huge hand! She ends up playing some sort of basketball game, and just as she is going to score she is dragged away.

"Welcome to our network" my sh!te!

And the lot for the family!! :mad:

I hate that ad with a passion with stupid, childish singing. Best put on mute or switched off. That ad should be used as punishment on people for being annoying!! :D :D To make it worse, RTE used this piece of crap for over 25 years!! :eek:

Agreed, this is woeful

The best is the domestos one with the grimey muppet character '... and now they hunt us down.... the trigger of death' or the car add where the Citroen C5 turns into a dancing robot
