There are adverts for 3 products that really puts me off buying them and those are, cars, perfume/deodorant and mobile phones.
Why?
Because they are so fucking pretentious that makes me want to throw stuff at the TV. Seriously, a car advert will show driving a certain car to be almost orgasmic experience, show me a car advert which basically goes "Its a car. It does this. Buy One" my money would not leave my wallet fast enough (not that I carry around enough money in my wallet to buy a car outright). Pretty much the same problem with mobile phone adverts, I use my phone for texting, phoning and an alarm clock. Everything else on my phone lays useless, I simply do not need it, yet every phone advert is determined to sell me stuff I don't need or use.
As for perfume adverts, which most of the time you have no idea what the fuck its about until the end of the advert. Its particularly bad around Christmas where perfume advertisers actually seem to have a pretentious off.
And deodorant adverts that make it seem that the only thing you need to score chicks is their deodorant. Looks, personality, sense of humour, these things we are told that women look for in a man. Nope, all you need is this deodorant and the women will flock to you. Sure, not smelling like a caveman does help with the women, but your cheap deodorant is not the aphrodisiac you claim it is.
Oh and beer adverts, namely Fosters, Carling, Bud, Coors and Millar. Stop spending so much money on trying to get me to drink your flavourless swill (yes all adverts are aimed at me).
