There used to be a cooking oil ad here with a tagline that said, "The right choice for housewives with common sense," or something along that line. There were protests - does that mean housewives/people not buying that brand don't have any common sense? - and the ad agency did away with the tagline.
In general, ads that annoy me are those for beauty products where it's shown that, if you use this or that product, cute guys will fall all over you. As if only the cute guys would notice that your looks have now improved and all other kinds of guys are blind to it.
