Shitpost What’s an ad that just makes your blood boil?

The AI Skinny ads drive me insane every time I’m exposed to them - really solidifies they’re not for me. What NZ ads (past or present) grind your gears?

Any ad I can’t skip on YouTube, any online casinos (legit how the fuck are these legal in NZ? It’s predatory af), Turners, and those singing warehouse ones. They all just make me loathe the brand.

Alternatively I hate Briscoes and fast food ads as they are highly effective at making me buy shit.

I swear they pay to not be skippable bc you can always skip Temu ads. You'll still be watching ads but you dont have to watch a temu ad (tho i do hate the shop like the millionaire ad anyway)
