Irritating Adverts

I read today that the Go Compare ad has been voted the most irritating.
Personally I find it amusing.
No mention of the abysmal fucking pair of Dave Bedford idiot clones in the 118 fucking shyte. Now that can get me seeing red and ready to strangle someone. My missus keeps away until I hit the zapper and change channel.
It has to be the WORST FUCKING ADVERT OF ALL FUCKING TIME. !!
Who in their right mind would waste their hard earned dosh on phoning this fucking useless site for a number?
I mean, it can't be life or death just to find the number of someone you don't fucking know, can it?
Google a name and most things come up.
Fuck 118, they are fucking useless.
No I have not used them and found out the hard way. I watch Grumpy Old Men (My heroes) and get my info from them.

Sorry Rodders the Go Compare gets right on most people's tits. It would actually stop me using their products it is so annoying. Agree on the 118s, they were crap when they first came out and nothing has changed. Best ad in years is the Barclaycard one with the Boston soundtrack. A close second is the new Virgin Airways, the girls are stunning and effects are clever.

If you want an irritating advert...........

What about the Halifax Bank adverts which are supposed to be set in a radio station. I want to vomit every time they come on!

I don't use ANY products advertised by any of em.
I decide what I want and go and get it.
I regularly investigate other insurers for building, contents, travel and car, and so far have been happy with what I have.
I regularly look at the utility providers and I have changed a few times. I sacked BT years ago and so far Virgin Media, (NTL when I joined them) hasn't let me down yet.
The moment some one fucks me about they get the sack.

I am now going to upset someone, but, anybody who takes notice of tv adverts is a fucking moron.

The Tesco ones with Prunella Scales and Jane Horrocks always had me grabbing the remote to hit mute or change channel.

I know what you mean, but imagining either of then going down on me always made my knob twitch.
But hey everyone, I am a pervert, I mean to say, I like wimmin.

Go Compare adverts are totally shit!
The guy thinks he's the re-incarnation of Pavarotti.
Pavarotti's a legend.

We-buy-any-car.com was annoying.
A clean cut guy doing all those break dance and shit..
Not my cup of tea!

I'd rather see Tony Blair spin on his head!
