No it's the one where the female barista asks her name and she replies "oh sorry, I've already got a girlfriend" and the barista says "no, it's for your coffee..." gesturing with a pen to her cup. Sooooo awks!
But it's for a gambling company so fuck that noise.

The one where she talks about licking her foam? Was surprised they went that way.  |

That advert sounds horrendous, user cubby.
Perfect example of "see, we get it, lesbians. Now spend £200 on the horses"

Don't know of anyone remembers an advert for Sannex where they showed soapy boobs. It was a long time ago and the annoying part of it is I only saw it once.

Just seen the ad. Most irritating thing about it is that some twat (probably with a ponytail or man bag) has been paid far more than I earn to come up with it. |

X201 gLol, that’s proper bouncy I think it’s Edgar Wright, of Baby Driver/Scott Pilgrim/Shaun of Dead fame. I’m normally a fan but… Edit - gif was a bit big, sorry

I don't know if it's cropped up on the thread before, but that "lady walks into a coffee shop and embarrasses herself in front of the barista lady" one is really starting to get to me. I'm all for making sure that the media, including adverts, games, films, whatever, is more inclusive, but it just feels SO FORCED. I'm sure everyone involved is lovely really. Yep, I've brought that up before. It's "oh aren't we progressive" bullshit from purveyers of despair. I have a close friend whose brother keeps calling her up for money because he's blown a shitload on gambling and he needs money for something like his daughter's school uniform. It's depressing, and frankly sickening, to see, and I think of it every time I see some shit like Keith Lemon or Paddy McGuinness selling out and appearing on a gambling ad. Even that massive rugby bloke shouting GAMBLING IS NEVER THE ANSWER at the top of his voice seems like a half-hearted excuse in the context of it all. |

Burned into my memory and living there rent free. Used to show it just before Tarrant on TV, which was basically another excuse to find a legit way to get tits on the telly. |

Those fucking Estrella Dam ads that pretend to be movie trailers and ask you to watch the full thing online. Fuck off. Even 30 seconds is too long to be asking me to consider buying your terrible beer. Tastes like jock sweat.

That ‘I’ve got nothing.’, mayonnaise advert. At one point you see a pan with a host of vegetables being cooked. That in itself is a meal. Putting mayo on it doesn’t make it a meal.
I get it with the person that only has eggs in the fridge, the mayo makes for another meal.

So many now seem to be horribly dubbed, like, to the point where on first viewing I’m not even sure if it isn’t a European ad with an English audio track stuck on top. |

Let's go classic for today's crap ad of the day - the fucking Cornetto ads with the blended TV family wrestling over the ice cream equivalent of a frozen pizza. (In that it's still ice cream, but with its soul removed.)
Anyway, everyone involved with that ad should be thoroughly depressed by themselves.

Haven't played Johnny Trigger for a while, annoyed to discover they've placed animated ads for other games on its main menu screen.
Not only that, the frequency of the ads it makes you sit through in the free version has become obnoxious to the point where they might as well just have them running constantly in some kind of battle for screen space while you play.
Also, I had no plans whatsoever to play GardenScapes before I had to sit through their latest ad campaign, but now they can fuck right off with trying to use imagery of poor, freezing and starving children to entice me to play.
And why is there a giant plastic cross-section of someones' colon hovering over their heads and stuffed with gold coins anyway? What kind of fucking sick piñata is that?

Those Scapes games also plague Microsoft Solitaire.
They use the coins puzzles in the adverts, but they’re just mini-games. The main game is just another match 3 tile game.
Also the ads are bloody infuriating; they show gameplay but it’s always screwing up the most basic of puzzles

It's intentional to make you think you could do better so you download it I don't think they're even representative of the games they're trying to make you download
Also, there's a MrBeast advert where he "challenges" his audience to download an app and install it on their phone, their parents, siblings, grandparents, friends, any phone they can get hold of (he literally says all this). It's not a challenge, you're just trying to manipulate kids, you cunt
All his videos are just him throwing ludicrous amounts of money at stuff. It's not clever in any way, just excessive. It's disgusting really

I am what I am
I don't want praise I don't want pity
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not try to see things from a different angle
Your life is a shame til you can shout out
I am what I am
