Most annoying tv ad

What's the tv ad that drives you crazy? Who annoys you so much that you change the channel?

On another thread there was mention of the lady from the Chrisco ads, and the woman on the Aust. Pensioners Insurance Agency. What's with those ridiculous glasses? And I'm not 'over 55' thank you very much.

Hehehe...before i even read what you'd written, i thought of those exact ads!! I hate them with a passion and switch over if they come on...

Some of the best ads have gotta be the one where the (grandfather/father) explains to the boy why they built the great wall of china....rabbits...hehehe!, and the XXXX ads with the men and the dog...mostly fishing!

I CAN'T STAND the Australian Workplace Choices ads.

You know, the ones that the Govt spent 20 million MORE THAN ORIGINALLY INTENDED WHOOPS.

They are soooooo effing annoying I just have to change the channel. And then they are on the other channel as well. Can;t get away from them aghhhhhhhhhh!!!!

I also can't stand the woman that says "As a Mum, I'm a great believer in nutella for breakfast" hehehehehe what a moron!!!!

DH and I are seriously thinking of investing in one of those machines that allow you to watch your programs without ads. Bliss!

I nearly fell out of bed laughing the other night when I saw the new Rugs a Million Ad- where he SERIOUSLY looks at the camera,... and says how scary petrol prices are.. and how he REALLY feared for the prices of rugs...

PUHLEASE!!!! get a grip... .like those ads weren't ALREADY annoying enough!!!

I also HATE the bloody IR reforms ads! What a shame, protecting Australian's AAARRRGGGHHH!! They make me really crazy!!!

The next ones on my HATE list are the Lite n Easy ones with all the women sitting around talking about their weight loss. They really annoy me and they make me not want to join. Do you think they realise how annoying they are???

AAAAHHHHHHHH.

The Harvey Norman and Domayne adds are so loud and annoying!

I have to mute or change the channel as my poor sleep deprived brain can't cope with the barrage of noise. I don't know how people absorb any of the add with all the loud music!

The most annoying ad for me is that crazy frog!!! He is the most annoying little frog ive ever seen!

My DS who is 6.5months old loves him so much. Every time he hears that song come on he turns his head and laughs at him. So i call my son the crazy frog as a nickname!

Any ad for alcohol which involves a) guys getting hit in the private parts or b) gross guys suddenly becoming reeaaally attractive to hot girls just makes me despair for the future of the human race.

I love those early morning ads (at least here in brissie) for Carleton Custom Upholstery where the people haven't even dressed up or brushed their hair for the ad (I can laugh because grooming isn't exactly my strong point these days).

PS I also hated the medicare ads before the last election, but who didn't?

I just hate the add where the tongue comes out of the guys mouth, switch over every time it comes on.

But I love the add with the 2 hippos in the bed, what a crack up, that is so my bedroom every night, lmao
