My top three most annoying ads would have to be:
1) Wendy's commercials featuring a mixed up man pretendening to be Wendy, giving a room full of Abarham Lincolns a pep talk about how they are still useful because of Wendy's delicous value menu. I love the food but the commercial made me sick. I haven't been there since I saw the commercial.
2)The Geico radio ad where the gecko is in the birthing room while a lady is giving birth and he is talking to the soon-to-be-daddy about insurance. What is a lizard doing in the room during a very personal moment? Bad image and its going a little to far for me. Can you say invasion of privacy?
3)Burger Kings commercial that shows the King. His head is exaggerated to the point that if he creeped up on me at home uninvited I'd have to call the cops and report a weirdo in my home. I love the cheeseburgers and I still go to BK but the King is pretty odd. I do like the fact he is smiling.
I am on the internet more then I am infront of my TV or listening to the radio. The ads I see flash on my computer screen on websites or suddenly pop up out of virtual no where. I do get annoyed by spam mail. Spam mail are ads also. You know what I'm taking about. The ones that ask you to answer several questions and sign up for more junk in return for a $200 shopping spree or a free phone or something you wish you had. It's a marketing technique that truely annoys me more then my top three annoying ads.
If companies want to get creative do it with taste. Ads should create pleasing images and emotions within the targeted consumers (the people you wnat to buy your product) and relate the product properly.
