Single worst ad of all time

[tribey]

Any APIA ad.

I'm in the process of seeking a government grant to detonate a hand-grenade up her vag in the name of 'art'.

That bloody nipple ad for Mentos, i cant even watch it, its so revolting. is it my imagination or are all mentos ads slighty weird and off-puting. i cant even remember others but i know every time i see a mentos ad, i think "weird".

There is an annoying ad shown on Perth TV for "City Subaru". Has a women singing about City Subaru with a bloke accompanying her on acoustic guitar. She is very passionate about City Subaru. It scares me.

Ahh I hate that ad!
I seen her at Joondalup shops a few months ago singing

I have worked in advertising, and the worst ads are those you can't remember the product.

I presume that means you're a believer that any publicity is good publicity? I've always struggled to think that way.

No I'm don't. But there's some silly thinking in this thread.

Many here bag the APIA ad. It's not real good, but they don't realise they are the wrong target audience.

I suppose I'm reacting to the reverse: people telling me about a great ad, they know it frame by frame, it's a great joke but can't name the product.

That is a bad ad.

That Woolworths ad the was just on Seven.

The christmas ad where the Kid makes a joke 'Whats the key to a good Christmas?' 'Turkey'.

A collection of good ads here:

Does your 'Vista Blinds' ad have the chick the seems like she's on speed ?
She sounds like that annoying Julia Morris,but she's a skinny chick.

YES! she is annoying. we have a winner.

it's played about 5 times every commercial break too

 

[stmookeyj]

What about those ads THAT SCREAM AT YOU FLOGGING RUGS AND CDS AND BOOKS AT JEFFS SHED...

Sorry to yell.. but I just really hate those.

BRAS, BRAS, BRAS!!!!

I am most certainly in the target audience and find the ad so "offensive" that I have a natural negative reaction to the company. Accordingly, it is unlikely that I shall ever deal with them.

 

[Dont be a lemon]

she plays covers down at my local pub. We always yell out 'city subaru' when she asks for requests. The joke has worn off considerably now though, going by her reaction anyway.

An ad I find lame at the moment are the Coles ones with the people singing "I'm, I'm, IIIIIIIIII'm in loooove!"

Is it supposed to appeal to mums or something?

Even more lame is they play that ********ty theme song in the Coles stores too

 

[Broken]

Those Maccas ads. "We're sick and tired of our friends telling us blah, blah, blah, so we thought we'd prove them wrong" - such a crock.

I ********EN HATE that ad !!!!

 

[raskolnikov]

It's another crappy Crunchy Nut Cornflakes ad.

I actually like Crunchy Nut Cornflakes but refuse to buy them because the ad insults my intelligence.

 

[lifelike_]

Has anyone seen that add where Tommy Hafey is about to take a bite out of the big roll? It is so poorly done that you can see that he doesn't take a bite and his mouth just hovers around it so it won't spoil it for the next take. I've seen it all this week in the ad break between the news and sport on channel 10 at around 5:45pm.

It is really bad. Also after all these years I find it strange that they would dig up old Tom Hafey to flog some mustard.

Shocking ad, I think it's for some company called Three Threes. Theres an even worse one of a primary school kid discovering she's got Mighty Mite on her sandwich.

Rugs-a-million have been closing down for years. They also have a terribly incompetent person doing the ordering. They have always over-ordered.

So true.

That company has had rotten luck haven't they? They have been closing down for years, over-ordering rugs, dropping their shipment into the river, fire damaged rugs, feral cats shredding their rugs, etc etc.

I don't know what their board is doing, but i would ask for an investigation if I were a shareholder.

 

[Brittany]

Another Perth car ad I hate is that one for Wannaroo Mazda, where that Pom guy is like "Do ya wanna, do ya wanna, do ya wanna new car?" etc etc

 

[bmwofoz]

I hate Any ad where the person takes a little bite and gives a full smile.

But the worst are the Met link ads. both the one with the crap slogan and the anti fare evaders ones with the tools wearing Orange shirts

 

[Dont be a lemon]

We just got a Graaaaaand Vitaaaaara!

 

[Suspense]

I despise any advertisment that features an incredibly dodgy and unfunny "Richie Benaud" impersonation. I must have heard at least four different ones this month.

Tis the season, however....

 

[danzan22]

i hate the toilet paper one with the kid saying how hes a folder, i really hate it.

 

[jefffff34]

We just got a Graaaaaand Vitaaaaara!

WTF is that?

 

[Monkster]

Even more lame is they play that ********ty theme song in the Coles stores too

Try actually working in a Coles and having to hear that damn ad every 10 minutes for 6 hours at a time!

The ad that ********s me the most atm though is the HJs Double Bacon Melt ad, seriously has there ever been a more wooden actor in the history of advertising? It's like he's channeling Elliot Goblet.
