Fed up of "lose belly fat" ads.

Ok, at the risk of opening a can of worms, I would like a mini-rant:
I am fed up with ads that say e.g. "reduce 10lbs of belly fat every minute with these 5 steps....." . I really wish you could do that, but unless I am very much mistaken you cannot choose where you lose the fat from, however much you would like to. And they clog up my screen, and make me feel like I'm being watched..... they all know I am dieting! Argh!
(Obviously you can tone up your tummy after / during losing the weight, but that's different).
So..... what other weightloss / diet type ads are people fed up of?
