The ads involve him ruining delivered pizzas through various means, only to get foiled by Domino's, which touted its quality assurance and [[ThirtyMinutesOrItsFree its 30-minute guarantee]][[note]]that assurance got Domino's into legal trouble by the early 90's when delivery drivers got into accidents or otherwise broke traffic laws, leading to "30 minutes or it's free" being changed to "30 minutes or $3 off", before being phased out altogether[[/note]]. The ad campaign was especially well known that not only has the Noid himself was featured in video game tie-ins (''VideoGame/AvoidTheNoid'' and ''VideoGame/YoNoid''), but he was brought back for a new commercial in April 2021 after three decades of dormancy, also being featured as a promotional boss in the mobile game ''VideoGame/CrashOnTheRun''.

!!We keep the Noid out and all the tropes in:
* CartoonBomb: The Noid attempted to plant one, only to be stuck to the Domino's dome of protection and sending him flying at the explosion.
* DoesNotLikeSpam: The Noid hates pizza, and especially Domino's, and tries to ruin them.
* HammeredIntoTheGround: When the Noid kicked the Domino's guarantee, it fell on him, driving him into the earth, leaving him to mope after digging himself out.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Many of the Noid's methods of trying to ruin Domino's often backfire on him. For example, he tried to get his freezing contraption into overdrive only for it to blow up on him without even so much as touching the cardboard.
* RapidAging: One ad has the Noid being a wizard whose magic has this effect on Pizza. His attempt at doing so at the Domino's Pizza resulted in him quickly growing a gray beard.
* WeatherControlMachine: One ad has the Noid operating one in a fruitless attempt to keep the delivery man from making it. The frustrated Noid then clenches on the machine, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard only for the effects to fall on him]].
