counterproductive advertising

Those lame,local TV ads that drive customers away due to their amateurish,home-made,ridiculous,and downright embarrassing nature. Typically a low budget advertisement featuring the business owner dressed up as a clown,a king or a mattress. Often features the business owners kids or other family members.

Those Mister Mattress TV spots are counterproductive advertising.I'd never buy anything from that fool.

Aivery

Aivery is a beautiful, smart, funny, ambitious, and happy person. She has many friends and people seem to ADORE her. At times, she can be very quiet. Other times, she can light up a room! Aivery is popular and well known, but fails to realise it. She always puts her family first and is always there for her friends. She has a sense of style AT TIMES and doesn't really care how she looks.

Aivery! Did you know Anard likes you?

counterproductive advertisement

Any advertisement that causes the viewer to boycott the product rather than purchase it. They usually cause people to cringe with disgust when they see them. This does NOT include the Snuggie and the Shamwow T.V. ads(and a few select others) because they were so over the top, which made people want to buy them as a joke.

Snorgtees, The General Insurance, That new evil Cheeto's Cheetah, Mr. Mucus Mucinex, That one fungus commercial with the animated green blob living under your toenail, various internet spam popups, Head On, and many more depending on viewer opinion.

Person: "I can't stand that guy's voice who does the Carls Jr. commercials with all the messy burgers. He makes me want to eat at Jack-in-the-Box."
Nathan44294: "That is a counterproductive advertisement."

Adverteasing

When an advertising names the product over and over again until you end up buying it or turning off TV

TV: With the new WeightLoser X3000 you lose a lot of weight! WeightLoser X3000 is the best product in the market! WeightLoser X3000! WeightLoser X3000 changed my life!

You: WTF, this is adverteasing, turn that sh*t off
