TV adverts
One of the things that annoys me most are TV adverts. Now, I think that TV adverts are a bit like marmite, you either love them or you hate them. Personally I absolutely loathe them seeing as I find them really irritating as do most people. Whenever an advert comes on the TV I usually switch the channel to another programme that’s on until my programme comes back on. Why? Because TV adverts are just ridiculously annoying and so time consuming. One of the things that annoys me the most is when you have to change the channel because you don’t want to watch the advert but then you end up completely forgetting about your first programme causing you to miss it. I mean I believe that TV adverts are basically hated by everybody. To me there is nothing worse than watching your favourite programme and having to wait about 5 minutes during adverts to find out what happens next. For example, lets’ set the scene, you’re sitting at home looking for something good to watch. You find a horror film that looks quite good and that has just started. You start to really enjoy the movie, you’re dying to know what’s going to happen, you’re on the edge of your seat and the rising suspense is unbearable. You’re just getting to the best bit and all is about to be revealed when suddenly the darkness from your screen is replaced by bright light. The creepy tension building music has gone and now your ears are filled by with nice calming music as the John Lewis clearance advert begins. Then you have to sit there for the next five minutes having to

    c. The television commercial is a terrible thing. The move away from the use of propositions in commercial advertising began at the end of the nineteenth century. But it was not until the 1950 's that the television commercial made linguistic discourse obsolete as the basis for product decisions. By substituting images for claims, the pictorial commercial made emotional appeal, not tests of truth, the basis for consumer decisions. (Neil Postman, 1985).…

    I can tell be honest when I say ads sometimes get in the way of what I'm trying to watch or listen too . I usually just turn the volume of and start doing something else in the meantime . I know the ads are usually just 30 seconds- 1 minutes but if you're really not into a certain ad at all it might take a century just to finish . Advertisements are not always believable .…

    Everyday ads are shown through newspapers and media. We can see them everywhere, from park benches to sides of buses. However, no one really pays attention to any of them. They are skipped, ignored, and turned over to the next page over by many every single day. The most commonly used saying about ads that one could hear is that they are simply “annoying”. Whether there is a celebrity in them or not, people just want to continue with what they are reading, trying to watch, or listen to.…

    Annoying adverts, there have been so many over the years. Most of them are so annoying because of the catchy but irritating song; a great example of this is the WeBuyAnyCar.com advert (2010). There are many reasons why this advert is loathed by many, one being that when the viewer hears the song they can’t help but have it stuck in their head all day. I am one of those people and I can tell you it’s such a big annoyance, not just for yourself but others who hear you too.…
