There's an advert with Superheroes for a credit card company, I hate the way Spiderman says the word "charges", it makes me cringe everytime.

The Dell ad where the guy calls in the middle of the night to check they are still there. Because i called Dell the other day and instead of the guy in the advert I got Ranjid in New Delhi who didn't understand a word I said and was about as helpful to me as the 3 rupees a week he is being paid!!!!!
At least make your adverts truthful Dell, have the guy calling at 3 in the morning and have a guy with a "It ain't half hot Mum - goodness gracious me" accent not understanding the guys paranoia about them not being there because it is not on the script!

Annoying teenagers with perfect hair and smiles so white they blind you, finding creative ways to give mum their great new school report. The skateboarding one is particularly annoying.
