The most shit adverts at the moment
FilmOn: An Elvis lookylikey* making his way down a street knocking people over?
The Halifax all singing all surfing extravaganza featuring someone new? and Howard!
While I'm at at it Challenge Churchill is getting right on my tits too.
Stupid Dogbot??

I love the Dogbot. And the new Halifax boy is cute. And I've never seen FilmOn. So it's a challenge churchill vote for me, but I agree with Mr C Pirate that Woolite is the one that needs to be destroyed. Safetergent is not a word. You can't just put 'safe' in the first syllable.
It's like trying to reassure someone going into hospital by saying, 'it's not a hysteroctomy, it's a SAFErectomy!'

I've not seen the Elvis one.
I'm surprised that Rapebot's Clear Skin isn't here.

I will never give money to Halifax, the new advert makes me want to kill things.

Can I nominate Kleenex? I can barely tolerate 'Let It All Out' when it was presented as referring to tears but now it refers to snot I can't.

I've gone for Churchill because that little shit has been bugging me for much longer than the others. At least you know that the others are a short term thing, but Churchill never goes away.

What's wrong with Churchill. I rather like the new one with its 'jowely insurance hound' thing.

I voted for Halifax Surfing although it's not as bad as the last with Aretha's "Think". That was the worst ever.

That Halifax advert is crap but the little guy looks about thirteen, he's adorable.
My vote goes to Elvis, it looks like it had a budget of about 50p.
Dogbot is AMAZING.

I'd have to say Woolite if it was there.
But I also still hate the "Mum! That one's pop!" Rice Crispies, and the Pizza Hut one where the mum finishes everyone's sentences (and the boy wants a torch for Christmas/Birthday. A torch!)

Can I add the teaching one with a load of geeky teens asking questions? The girl who says "what's the difference between dust and fluff?" is the most annoying of a bunch if very annoying people. What a shite ad.

What a shite ad. Agreed. Although I do like "Can you cry underwater?" It always leaves me turning to my boyfriend, and asking in a very serious voice, "CAN you cry underwater??" each time without fail. I genuinely want to know!

There is very few bodily fluids left... and they already have the sofa....

Do they still have "What is the point of a daddy longlegs?" kid on this, because he is the most annoying human being alive. Actually no it's the sarcastic "let's ask einstein?" emo. Well anyway if those little walking talking abortions are still on it then it's the worst.

"When my teacher shags me, his erection is 180 degrees." I think those adverts would just discourage people from becoming teachers by highlighting just how annoying and stupid kids are.

Pfff. My pupils never ask me questions like that. I wish they would - it would provide me with a tiny amount of amusement, at least. The most moronic thing I've been asked is (upon watching Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet with my year nines) "Did they really have helicopters back then, Miss?"
