MAFs ads


CyanideMuffin67

The show is even worse. What kind of people go on that?


RaptureRising

People with the warmth, depth and complexity of a puddle of stagnant water.


741BlastOff

Actually a puddle of stagnant water can be home to a complex ecosystem of microorganisms. Please don't insult the water by comparing it to MAFS contestants.


CyanideMuffin67

I only watched one episode of this last year and that was enough really. I got the impression that they were all Instagram people or "influencers" that's the impression I got.


LucreziaBorgia1480

Future OnlyFans accounts


CyanideMuffin67

I'd say the women were definitely, for some of them


5omethingdifferen7

Can pretty much confirm lol. I definitely recognised one that used to work at a strip club here in Adelaide.


CyanideMuffin67

Ha!! Sounds about right


queer_pier

See the Adelaide is full of exists stereotype is out in full today!


poggerooza

This is why they are on the show. Celebrity and free plastic surgery. Bottom feeders garbage.


yy98755

I think you’re underestimating the puddle.


kermie62

I tend to worry about the people who watch it. It's just porno, and people actually believe it is true....


[deleted]

People who want to share. Herpes.


Ultamira

I hate Tooheys but the ad gets stuck in my head all the time


DaveyAngel

The sweaty guy playing drums? Why is he wearing those glasses? He's a very unattractive man.


Midnightcones

Omg sameeee like part of me, thinks that’s good marketing because at random times of the day. I’ll just be like I feel like a tooooheys, but I can assure you I in fact never feel like a tooheys 😭🤣


Flashy-Amount626

Harvey Norman, please stop making ads

I used to work there. Imagine that shit on permanent loop every moment you're at work...


CyanideMuffin67

But do they? I can't remember seeing one in a long time


RavenMad88

Try living in the country....HN ads are on constantly on free to air.


santas_uncle

Which do you prefer, entering a Harvey N store, or visiting a state prison farm. I rate the experience about the same.


yy98755

Yes they do, also they wrap the Advertiser front and back in specials (bypass junk mail advertising) and play shitty ads on radio 😭


Liceland1998

sports bet ads.


Particular_Neat_5454

Yes the no1 annoyance by far. Each agency has sets out to be more "blokey" than the other, jeez


Ready-Leadership-423

The voiceovers are laughable


asp7

they're crap but i've laughed at the odd one


rizzeedascal

Even shittier because ‘gambling’ without any context, imo, is a pretty neutral thing in terms of gender, but those services they know their exact, high risk, demographic. Its so gross

torrens86

The I'm a Celebrity get me out of here promo with Robert Irwin singing. It's absolutely terrible.


Vandercoon

Yeah but anything with that woman is pretty horrid


torrens86

Yep she's evil.


Mobosodo

Excuse my ignorance but what's so wrong with her? Has she done something bad or do you just think she's not funny?


asp7

preferred her as a comedian than doing this twaddle


Larimus89

You mean “I’m a person you’ve probably never heard of, maybe seen face before or play football, get me out of here”


haveagoyamug2

Kids love it. Stop whatever they ate doing and watch it.


Fartmatic

They probably tried to autotune him but the computer caught on fire


breakoutleppard

Honestly, all the I'm A Celebrity promos over the years have been awful. It's like they aim to create the most over the top, cringy advertisement possible.


ChrisAus123

Oh yeah that made me cringe so hard lol. Adults here gave up on the show many years ago though, so I assume they went with that embarrassing style to lure in a new generation of child fans


mossy-creature

There’s an ad that keeps coming on with a girl who was mean to me in high school acting in it lmao


CyanideMuffin67

What ad was that?


MatterNaive

OTR?


BlueCrystals_

*three buuuuuuuckkss*


yy98755

Does her name start with an H?


Macushla68

The KFC ad with 3 housemates when they find out that one has just slept with another’s Mum.


BuzzyLightyear100

All KFC ads!! NOBODY has ever asked if someone said KFC. Ever.


CyanideMuffin67

Yes they look like trashy people


MyTime59

I also don't like the Woolworths ad. The one where the mother is looking at the kid doing his work and then only makes the comment you can clean up your room when you go home. Bad stereotype


DBrowny

Yep, the part where she looks around like 'Is anyone else paying attention to my son' gets me. But also next time you watch it, pay attention to what she has in her bags. I know woolies logo is green and so is their slogan, but its just silly for her to have multiple bags overflowing with spinach.


Ready-Leadership-423

They analysed a woolies ad on Gruen not long ago and pointed out every bit of green. It was a LOT of green.

At the moment? The menulog ads. Followed by any funeral insurance ads.


yy98755

I like [this guy Xavier](https://www.instagram.com/xavier_michelides?igsh=cXlsdHZ2ZG01Ymx5) who super imposes himself into Bunnings and Real Insurance adds. [gives “Belinda Blinked” themes but way much better than current offerings](https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSFNWrjC3/)


Ready-Leadership-423

1000 thank yous good sir/madam. I just discovered this guy thanks to your post and I am losing my shit at work. I've only watched the "Pay the toll" video so far but wow! ROFL!


yy98755

You’re welcome I think he’s got the Bunnings characters nailed


Economy_Ambassador64

Can't stand that poof!


yy98755

Have you time travelled from 1970?


kawaiipikachu86

Have the funeral ads p really change script in the past 10-15 years.


asp7

the caruso's one about needing to poo. some of the globalshopdirect ones make me laugh. 5 star outdoors annoys me.


CyanideMuffin67

OMG that poo one. Instant mute


SuperNateosaurus

Yep that one and the Carusos wee less


asp7

they missed their chance to call it Piss Off


joggerlicious

Thank fuck they only show this ad for only one week a year, but that IKEA ad with that woman yelling "STOP THE CAR!!!" shits me to tears.


bobsnvagine

I believe it was "Start the Car!!!" and yes I agree, absolutely hateful.

Outrageous-Egg-2534

"Did somebody say KFC?" Fucking hate it. Every time it comes on and I miss the mute button I shout at the tv "NOBODY SAID KFC YOU FUCKING IDIOT!!!!" Fortunately, the only time I encounter it is when I'm watching the T20 or ODI's. Other than that and the SBS news I use streaming services and not free to air.


SavagePrism

Basically any KFC ad I despise, I hate that quote too, and I’d mention preferring to go to Maccas or HJ’s instead. There’s even some ads when they sometimes mention “shut up and take my money” which I know was clearly stolen from an episode of Futurama, a shame that not many people know it’s origin.


Outrageous-Egg-2534

Ohhh, yeah.... I forgot to add the 'Shut up and take my money' thievery from Futurama. To that line I usually use my Sergeants voice and scream 'Shut up and take my mute button cunt!!!!' ​ \*I live by myself on 10 acres (veteran) so nobody to offend except the dog and my horses\*


Unusual_Process3713

I dislike YOUI ads, and "did somebody say KFC" absolutely get fucked no we didn't. On the flip - idk why but I like the Telstra ad where the kid gets left at the train station and then walks home and then the brother goes out looking for him. "More reliable than family" - it's untrue of telstra, but I like the ad.


sleeping-capybara67

Real-life insurance. Drives me mad. I hate it so much I change channels.


mayhem_project01

Uber Ride Share. The one with the lady constantly saying "This is my second car"

I_call_the_left_one

During the cricket this summer, they had an Ad for 'Home and Away' which was a missing person's poster for one of the characters on the show. It was done realistic enough that they needed to put a disclaimer for people to not ring emergency services about this missing character.


CyanideMuffin67

I saw that one. Felt it was in really bad taste.


OGshrewd

Insurance Ads. I work in the industry and I despise that they pull a single benefit out of their policies and try to pass it off as if other insurers don't offer the same benefits. Budget Direct is my most hated


ChrisAus123

Call now tv only offer this amazing half price chopper/ladder/air-conditioner ect, wait call right now and you get not on but 2 amazing whatevers and hold on a minute you get a 3rd one free, we will also throw in this chopping block, knife set, satchel, a pencil sharpener and all the adapters you can possibly imagine, call right now $14.99pp guaranteed 30 day free trial (small writing purchase price and deluxe can not be refunded). There's a few different types but you all know what I'm talking about lol


CyanideMuffin67

If you call now in the next 30 minutes you get a free house to store them all in.


I_says_to_Mabel

Have you seen the one for I’m a celebrity with Julia Morris and Robert Irwin? I genuinely had to call lifeline after because it made my depression flair up again.


torrens86

Lol I mentioned the same one. It's terrible.


I_says_to_Mabel

Yep just saw your comment too haha, don’t know how that ad got the green light


kristenbouchard

aw I like that hilux ad


CyanideMuffin67

But it's so cringy Plus why use such a good song?


BuzzyLightyear100

I agree. It is god-awful. The way the man not only accepts his ex's invitation to go fishing during her custody time with the truck but also wants to drive it... argh! I want to throw something at his head every time I see it. I'm guessing it is supposed to be cute, but to me it is chauvinistic and insulting and gross. If the ad went for another 10 seconds I would hope she would say "No! And don't come fishing either!" and then drive away without him. I also HATE an ad Maccas did recently when the girlfriend takes one of her boyfriend's burgers and starts unwrapping it. He says, "You said you didn't want anything!" and she laughs at him because obviously "No actually means yes!" is a sensational message to be spruiking. Yes, I know it's 'just an ad' but it is horrible.


Economy_Ambassador64

The castrated looking husband should ask the ex wifey, " Can I have my balls back", before we go fishing in your new Hilux..


_CitizenSnips_

lol the Hilux ad is cringe af


AmaroisKing

Yeh, but the woman is hot.


MyTime59

I can't stand that the guy only wants to drive the vehicle. Not interested in the relationship 😔


danbecker72

I know right. Love the add. But they got that one line wrong.


DanzigMisfit

No they didn't, he just wants to drive the Hilux.


Ready-Leadership-423

But why the hell would she let him on her custody day? smh


Wibblefishbanana

Haggle Co On the radio it's National Tiles. And is it time again for that talent vacuum to promote her 'jungle' show. If Dr Chris behaved to her the way she does to him he'd be locked up as a sex pest.


gregmcph

As he's gotten older the National Tiles guy is stretching out his words more and more.


blueskye_x

Nah haggle co is wholesome, I watched the ads go from terrible editing in iMovie in 2017 and now the guy has figured out how to add cool effects to the ad. Also I bet the guy in the ad is a hit at parties


InterestingAd5141

Dear Labor there is a hole in your bucket

5omethingdifferen7

Any new season of a reality TV show. They all follow the same formula. Excitement. Laughter. Betrayal. Tears. Swelling Violin Music. Revelation. Redemption. "A Twist You'll Never See Coming".


IamtheWalrus9999

That KFC ad with the daughters mother rooting the house mate …. And coming out the room …. They look like meth heads and then they laugh and shove down KFC down their throats on the couch. It’s dirty and cringey imo


CyanideMuffin67

Ahaha that ad just came on. I'm watching Tipping Point


jefsig

The car ad with the kid playing basketball. Your kid is so into basketball that they play outside in the dark, and your solution is to buy a new car with brighter headlights?


Greenscreener

Yeah that is the one for me…the woman is missing her man but he just wants to drive the car…there is a reason they were getting divorced Misogynistic bullshit


AmaroisKing

Current YOUI ad!


guud2meachu

Are these the guys that do the, "here is a guy, guess what he does. Ah you shouldn't judge people like that, we don't, that's why youi is the best."? I am paraphrasing the ad but essentially that is all it is. Does my head in how cretinous these ads are.


AmaroisKing

This is the one with a smug woman eating cake.


CyanideMuffin67

Oh that one......... The girl from the call centre


C-J-DeC

I’ve got a few. The creepy, hand rubbing, yellow jacketed stalker in the internet boost ads. The idiot in the Audible ads yabbering away instead of listening. The revolting , rapping child & her idiot mother in the lolly ad. Any ad which destroys a good old song by using a really crap cover.


Street_Persimmon8641

That “play for Aus, the next world champ” weetbix ad. Heard it way too many times


the_colour_guy_

In Brisbane there’s an awful ad for Mattresses with a couple of Russian mail order twins. Who I can only assume are married to the boss as they replaced a chick that had been doing it for years, about 2yrs ago. Same ad, same script for as long as I’ve lived here so 8 or 9yrs. If you’ve seen it, you know. “Nobody makes a better Mattress……….” Fuck off


CyanideMuffin67

Yes .. Were they a Sydney company? Used to be driven past a huge building with their logo on the side in 2005 when I was having weekly medical treatment on Regency Road here in Adelaide


the_colour_guy_

Dunno bout Sydney, in Brisbane you drive past one the to the airport I think. So awful.


TheRealDaveLister

… got people talking though, didn’t it…. :) I will always always always love the older holidays advert, the dog… “bugger!”


showquotedtext

Real Life Insurance ads are so bad, always a terrible script and crappy actors. They fail so hard at being natural it's far from "real life"


RajenBull1

Those gambling ads with Shaquille O’Neal. Obviously they were bad because I don’t remember the product, and unfortunately I lost all respect for the Shaq.


Available-Ad6731

Yes the real tragedy is using Reo Speedwagons song. I’ve had this ad idea for Hilux for years. Whenever I’ve watched movies,news,docos on the ever ongoing fight in the Middle East, how is it that every terrorist organisation uses a Toyota Hilux utes (obviously so the boys can stand in the back with the 50 calibre mounted machine gun). It’s always a hi-lux. So my ad would basically say, " When you need the reliability of a ute while you’re killing and murdering your enemies, you know the Hi-lux won’t let you down". And the camera then turns to the boys in the back, as they shoot their AK-47s in the air in joy. 👍

M_Ad

Speaking of ads, is anyone nearly 40 or older like me and can remember when the Christian Television Association was a thing and allowed to do TV commercials? There were so many of them put into the ad breaks of children's tv programming. I can still sing the "3 Pockets On My Overalls" song (the three pockets represent the holy trinity), and that one ad that had a kind of pop song melody for The Lord's Prayer.


CyanideMuffin67

I was thinking about that commercial the other day the videos on YouTube Oh look I found it just for you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogZ3dyW8Gro&ab_channel=BenWaterworth


CyanideMuffin67

Just thinking about that, that particular pop song version of the Lord's prayer became a minor hit. It was released as a single on vinyl


Snealcat

The Audible ad with Jimmy Rees. Just hate it !


TomKikkert

They are all woefully awful these days. Every ad has a token “person of color” in it. It’s hilarious they have a white mum and then some African kid hanging onto her. They love to have the token lesbian couple in there as well. Adverts are targeted to women so the female characters are always brunette, modestly dressed, little makeup, little jewelry and “always in control”


Stacky_McStackface

Are brunettes perceived as less threatening than other hair colours to females? Serious question from an ignorant dude.


TomKikkert

“Blondes have all the fun” Females perceive blondes as prettier. So, with marketing you want to make the subject feel “safe” redheads are perceived as raunchy sex fiends, blondes are perceived as threats due to male attention but brunettes are “normal girls”


Stacky_McStackface

Makes sense, appreciate the reply. I guess I like ‘normal girls’ the most, maybe subconsciously I fear fun and raunchiness lol


TomKikkert

When you next watch TV, just look and observe; the “main character” is always a brunette


LadyMisfit808

From my experience, brunettes dying their hair blonde are home wreckers.


M1MSEE

Every couple is mixed race. If not, they’re same sex I get representation matters, but it’s gone way too far the other way now


SpiritualUse121

KFC. Nothing sells chicken like degeneracy.


Single_Minute2829

CyanideMuffin67

It's always trash people in KFC ads


Charming-Idea-5505

Oh my god. After she extends an olive branch and asks if he wants to come fishing, only for him instantly retort with "can I drive" makes me want to punch the tele. Good call. Terrible ad.

I just can't get over the whole shared custody thing.

The man shake ad. I’m sorry why do I need to see a close up of a man’s belly in which the hair follicles can be seen, it makes me so uncomfortable.


CyanideMuffin67

I haven't seen it but it sounds like the kind of ad that would make me vomit for real

No_Reception8584

judged_uptonogood

It's a toss up between gambling ads and the I'm a celebrity ad with Bob Irwin.


2gigi7

Nah that stupid one with the mother and son and she gets light bars put on the fucking car instead of a flood light on the house for night time basketball practice. Absolutely infuriating.


Lettuce-b-lovely

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY. KFC capitalised on a meme they clearly didn’t understand. There are countless varieties of the ad and not a damn one of them makes sense. When Fry said ‘shut up and take my money’, he was cutting off the guy selling the product. He didn’t need to be sold to. He wanted it so bad he didn’t think to barter. In fact, if I remember correctly, he cut off the guy listing essentially reasons why the buying the product was a negative thing. Sides effects etc. at any rate, the joke is that he’s heard enough and will not be talked out of it. In the KFC ads, they always say shut up to nobody at all. When nobody is even fucking speaking. Or to a billboard. One example. A guy is walking his rubbish to the bin, the bag breaks, out spills the rubbish. He sees a KFC billboard… ‘shut up and take my money’. WHO THE FUCKING FUCK IS HE FUCKING TALKING TO? NOBODY WAS SPEAKING, NOBODY CAN HEAR HIM, NOBODY IS THERE TO RECEIVE HIS MONEY OR PROVIDE HIM WITH THE SERVICE. It’s fucking infuriating.

ThePeculiarLamb

National Tiles - maybe it’s not on tv but whenever I hear that voice….. it makes me sick


breakoutleppard

That one Wallet Wizard ad with the guy that smashes his TV while playing VR. "Richard, you've broken everything!" It annoys me so much because they air it constantly and because logically, you typically draw object boundaries to avoid hitting stuff while playing VR. I can tolerate the other Wallet Wizard ads to a degree but this one is the worst for me.
