axolotl-danio Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 There are several ads that are really annoying at the moment. 1. The ad where the lady buys her kids and icecream because they have had their morning calcium, their lunch calcium but not their afternoon calcium. :roll: 2. The Telecom XT ad where they compare the time it takes for a speedboat to complete a set circuit to the speed of their new phone network. I really don't see how they can be compared. :roll: and 3. The ad where the man has to choose between cough medicine or honey to sooth his throat. :roll: What ads annoy you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamH Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 All ads seem to annoy me. Mainly because I'd rather be watching T.V. But yeah, I agree, some ads are just horrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cichlid7 Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 you can't hate all ads think of the demon energy carwash ad you have to love that one :roll: :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 That fresh up ad was awesome! But the best by far have to be the instant kiwi ads with the mexican doug... Most annoying ads I've seen recently were the TV2 ads with the txtlsh in them, took me a while to figure out what "ton" and "tmw" meant...

VinsonMassif Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 The ad's me off so much that when I moved I didn't get Sky connected and took the aerial down. No Tv. Only watch DVD's now. I don't even miss it. Surf for news online and keep up to date with the things I want to see and read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquila Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Yeah, those ads are pretty horrible. All the Twinnings tea ads with that pompous lady are also irritating... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrie Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I honestly dont really notice adds much as I seem to turn off to them but must admit those kiwibank adds would stop me from ever banking with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LYNDYLOO Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I would have to say the most annoying adds for me are: The State Insurance Add And the Sensodyne Add drives me insane, what on earth has simming got to do with Sensitive Teeth, I mean who on earth swims with their mouth open :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I must say I watch little TV and when the ads come on I tune them out. It took me ages to get the joke behind the painted clothes on those Air NZ ads :roll: :oops: The BAM man worries me and anyone who tries to sell me cleaning products. :lol: One ad I always noticed and watched cos it made me laugh (I like ads that make me laugh) was the bulls in the Toyota ute. "Hellooo ladies!" :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LYNDYLOO Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Have to agree with you Caryl, that Toyaota Add was Awwsome :lol: :bounce: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oeminx Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 My advise to the world, if are out with the mates don't try and reproduce the freshup add with tequila :oops:. The add that really annoys me is the one with the women in the bar getting absolutely sozzled (you know the, its not what were drinking its how) they still make it out to be a guys fault at the end of it :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim r Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Radio ads annoy me more.They always seem to have sexual inuendo's.But the worst one for me currently is the drinking ad with the foul language which usually comes on just before the news.

supasi Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 I cant stand the Napisan ones or any of the other foreign cleaning ones that are obviously voiced over. So tacky :roll: I agree about the kiwibank ads. Does nothing to make me want to join that bank. Mr cheese , yes please!!!!! AAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 So oeminx are you saying it is perfectly acceptable for someone to attack someone else and abuse them because they are drunk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Agree with Supasi on the voice over cleaning ones, especially the kid on the loo one, was worthy of diving for the remote in order to change the channel! My all time favorite has to be the Smokefree Rally of NZ opossum ad.... 'Check it out, two moons!' But I realise that some of you may be too young to have ever seen it!

But I realise that some of you may be too young to have ever seen it! Yeah, two moons became a saying at the time. Nothing is as funny as pulling out all the old VHS tapes from when I was young, that I recorded off TV. The ads have come along way since the late eighties. :lol: Does anyone remember the old Sweppes ads with the guy dressed up as a lady. Or the bluebird penguins when they were pen drawn.?
