Default Most annoying radio advert

They seem to be shocking at the moment, especially on Dubai 92.

The one with that bloke just talking about some executive airline to Saudi... God! Get someone who sounds alive at least!

Then there's the one about Al Futtaim Motors. PARADE! ATTENTION!

FOOOOK OFF!

Fortunately I don't listen to radio, or watch TV here.

It's one of the ways I keep moderately sane

The Al Kahel ad.

A man creates a horse from sand and says unto the horse "I have given you the ability to fly".

and it's for a ****ing development project - what the speel leading up to it has anything to do with it aside from it being a horsey project like ranches is beyond me.
Listen to it! It's ****ing head wrecking bol,locks

yeah I hate that one, but it's not that one I hate the most, it is the one about HPO's or something - no one including the presenters know what it is about !

omg, I hate that one too...and why did they feel the need to give the indian lady a "british name", isn't it Jenny or summat. How cr*p.

At least they are giving the Irish woman a rest who seemed to do the voice over on every single radio ad for months...the only one she's on now is that Hertz ("it bl**dy hurts" ) one which does my head in as well...

MM, xx

I loathe the use of the word 'Solution' in things - especially everyday things such as photocopying.

And I really loathe the use of the words "for all your ..... needs".

Delivery trucks that stock coke machines back home have a slogan on the back that says "For all your coke needs".

Who has coke needs? Addicts on cocaine maybe...

(Yes i'm grumpy today).
