Nope, not cigarettes, not since the 70's or so. "Show us your Lark!"

Really dislike infomercials that drone on and on, and you get sucked in at first thinking is this just an extra long commercial, and why are they going on and on... oh, it’s an infomercial.

Not sure about print media. I haven't looked at a printed magazine in a long time.

For me, all of them. That's half the reason why I don't watch TV and install ad-blockers on my internet devices. It's awesome. 🙂👍

There's one in the UK at the moment that really annoys me.
A well-known chemist/pharmacy (with a green logo starting with L!) has a tv and radio ad that is degrading to older people. It's advertising their online prescription service. In both versions, it's a couple where the woman is nasty to her husband or about a friend's wife. She moans about his hobby in the first one. In the second she describes the friend's wife as "about as much use as a waterproof teabag". Is that really how a company views potential customers for its online service? It's not funny, as the company would like you to believe. Yes, some women do behave like that, because their husbands haven't challenged them. Can feel myself getting annoyed just writing about it.... |

There’s this commercial that I think is a summer one because both my mom and I forgot about it and just started seeing it again. But this lady’s house is flooding and the faucets are going like crazy and spraying everywhere and then this guys air conditioning is blowing out of control but they aren’t concerned or really even noticing the mess because they have a home warranty. What really grosses me out is at the end when the lady, still smiling, is making a soggy wet sandwich. Thankfully they don’t show her eating it.
I had a dream about that commercial last summer because it’s so bad. I’ve seen it 3 times today. __________________ Ridin' with Biden |

Any of the car or home warranties that you know are a SCAM. Car Shield has to be the worst.

I do like the Compare the Market ads but can understand how irritating they can be. I admire anyone who has the imagination to produce something like that. Okay, they're probably being paid big bucks for it though.
I've also noticed that some companies "recycle" ads for a number of years. Bits are taken out but then lose the theme. Another that irritates me is for Olay Retinol face cream. One presenter (think her name's Lily Shah) doesn't pronounce the "t" Thank goodness we don't get the Cilit Bang ones with Barry Scott any more.... |

Those what smoking can do to your body commercials. They are so disturbing. Which is the exact purpose of them.
The latest one is that Downy one where the couple is trying to get a box on the top shelf of the closet and they are making a lot of loud noises like they are having sex. Then the grand boy is listening to them and sees their wrinkled shirts and runs. Then in the next scene he sees the wrinkles are gone and then leaves and the grandparents wink at each other. They actually show that one on Nickelodeon. __________________ Ridin' with Biden |

Now they have a new home warranty one where this lady’s toilet is sucking everything in the bathroom down the toilet. At the end she grabs her cat just in time.

Not a commercial, but i had to switch from the Minions movie last night, which i WANTED to watch, when Allison Janney's older son was drooling on Kevin in the back seat of the car. SOOOOO GROSS!!! Please, no puke noises, no peeing - okay, theres a bleach commercial, where the little boy mops the floor from the toilet - ugh!

if we're talking of all time, then the milky bar kid. it was one when I was growing up, and used to really scare me. okay, so their's nothing wrong with a kid in a wild west setting advertising chocolate bars, but I was 6, and kept thinking that when he wasn't filming for adverts, he was going round turning kids to chocolate while they were asleep. I can't even watch it now, just brings it all back..
if we're talking present day, their's a comercial for the RSPCC, where they show
Possible trigger:
it's just so horrible to watch, and yes I understand that charities need money, but is their no other way to get their message across?. really? also their's one for daily skin care where she just says, " I will protect you daily" so ****ing original it hurts |

I’m sorry those commercials scared you. They had a pizza commercial where a guy was looking for money and picked up a boy and turned him upside down and shook him until some coins fell out. I know people were complaining about that one. __________________ Ridin' with Biden |
