TV Commercials You HATE

[Blood Debts]

Any ad with blatant virtue-signaling; I refuse to look up the specific one I saw, but it featured a hideous troon-like ape at a job interview, with manly facial features and tall lanky male frame, long hair, lipstick of a color that outrageously clashed with its feminine outfit and no other makeup, and gaudy dangling earrings that looked like they belonged on a 70s-era prostitute, and the person representing whatever company the commercial was for asked it what its pronouns were to emphasize how inclusive and progressive the company was. It was such blatant self-congratulatory fart-huffing that I sat in a fugue of disgust for a good couple minutes afterward.

Probably a bit niche but I hate all those Chromebook ads I get subjected to on YouTube. They keep comparing them to Windows of yesteryear with "built in virus protection" and no floods of .exe pop-ups as its selling point. Yeah, Windows hasn't been like that since Vista. If they wanted to bill Chromebooks as "built in privacy with no reporting home" then that would be a selling point comparison I'd like. But Chromebooks are Google and riddled with it so they can't.

It's the sheer fucking dishonesty of the ads that I hate.

I hate getting these damn ads when I'm on Youtube on my phone, they make me want to punch everyone in it

Oh come on, that was so long ago and I thought it was funny. Then again, I was 13...

Anyway, I just got a Taco Bell ad on Youtube. A man and a woman are on a beach at night and they start making out. Then a buoy washes up and tips over, making the Taco Bell ding. The woman stops making out and walks off. Cut to her walking up to Taco Bell with the tagline "When you want a taco, you want a taco"

I'm sick looking at her fat doughy face talking about tampon
hella-late abortion needs to be legal just for her.

That stupid credit card ad that I'm bombarded with every single time I use YouTube on my Playstation. I swear to god I'm gonna start hearing "FREE GAS HACK" in my fucking sleep.

Why do they even bother with ads where they pretend to be a Youtuber? I've lost count of how many I've seen since at least 2018 and idk who they think they're fooling, not even the most oblivious boomer is going to think it's not an ad

The piece of shit commercial for I don't even remember what that ran on Hulu nonstop all throughout 2020. To this day, the song that played during it over and over and over sends me into an insensate rage:

This song has not aged well.

Perfume commercials are normally pretty artsy, but this one is just stupid nonsense that they slapped together in 5 minutes. A highschooler could do better.

Compare the Market. A cute meerkat with a Russian accent is getting pissed off because people keep coming to his site (Compare the Meerkat) looking for car insurance. Simple concept, right? Except, as of writing this, the campaign has been going for twelve fucking years. I had an honest-to-God conversation with a niece the other week who was not born when Compare the Meerkat started. That's how long it's been on the air.

I like this next one for "Mum loved coming here... her death was such a shock!", but I don't think there's a single example of an ad more divorced from how two humans interact:

Bonus points for having the guy playing the dad in the comments (apparently).

British adverts have this shitty, saccharine, condescendingly nauseous tone to them that I fucking despise. I do not understand how anyone thinks they are a good idea. I am not a fucking 6 year old. A perfect summation of them is below (ignore the tiktok please inshallah.)

I'm conflicted about including movie previews in this thread. After all, most of what is in the preview is in the movie (or was supposed to be in it).

You mean you don't remember being assaulted by Madagascar 3 ads every commercial break?
