Annoying ads 2

Current hates:
Uncle Ben's, especially the tikka masala sauce ad
The British Gas ads with Brenda Blethyn
The singing KFC ads

And I still really hate:
Sharon Osbourne for ASDA
Herbal Essences (they sponsor Desperate Housewives, so I have to endure it multiple times every Wednesday)
Howard from the Halifax, a continuing hatred

Most annoying print ad is still the AXA one (though I've not seen it in the past month or so) about "show me a 25 year old billionaire...." The expression on the Asian woman's face makes me want to slap her.

Seconded! but I haven't seen the AXA ad.

go to http://www.axa.co.uk
they've got the ads in a flash thing on the bottom.
it's the one with "show me a 25 year old billionaire and i'll eat my hat"
then the asian woman comes on with "ketchup?"
unfortunately it's cropped--in the print version she has her thumbs up and it's even more annoying!
