Chris the great Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 leave the adverts alone ya *****, there just trying to make some fucking money. no one goes into your place of work and accuses it of being shit. its like going into the supermarket and complaining that the shelves arn't stacked to your taste. advertising people have a really tough break, if a normal person's work isn't that good, it usualy goes under the rug, a poorly written e-mail, a baddly stacked shelf, a miss filed document, they don't get called up on it publicly. yes the frosties advert was annoying, but if we all had a life and didnt sit in front of the tv all day we might see somthigns that didnt offend us.
Ellmeister Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I don't have a problem with adverts, I just turn it over if I want.. Although sitting in a car listening to radio adverts, the new 7-up adverts.. they are so bad I have to cringe with that women getting spanked.. and then a bunch of little kids at the end going 77777777-up. Purely a bad advert, always gives us something to talk about in the car though.
EEVILMURRAY Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 leave the adverts alone ya *****, there just trying to make some fucking money. Chris here has just declared his love for popups.
rokhed00 Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Anyone seen the new claims direct ad that has someone telling some bullshit about how she was injured at work or some crap. Then at the bottom is says "Fictional Story"... The advert is just one lie. Is it the one where the stupid bitch trips over some plastic? She shouldn't be wearing high heels in a factory anyway, and what the fucks so hard about looking where you're going? leave the adverts alone ya *****, there just trying to make some fucking money. no one goes into your place of work and accuses it of being shit. its like going into the supermarket and complaining that the shelves arn't stacked to your taste. If a supermarket doesn't have what I want I pull them up about it, nothing wrong with that, they're meant to be a supermarket, they should be stocking everything people want.

You just wasted 5 minutes hating people that hate ads. Yay for you.
Chris the great Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 You just wasted 5 minutes hating people that hate ads. Yay for you. and you wasted time pointing that out, as did i pointing that out and that, and that, and that. its a vicious circle, point being that people do put alot of thought into adverts and it must be really fucking hard and dull work to make an advert for insurance or loans, and as the great roy walker once said "its easier to criticise then to do, maybe thats why theres so many critics in the world"
Roostophe Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Radio advert: "What do you want to be when you grow up, Adam?" "I want to be 60, miss!" "Why do you want to be 60?" "So I can go down to my local Vauxhall Retailer and I'll be able to get a discount on any car if I'm 60 years-old or over." The fuck?

I like to be pedantic and annoy people. It brings JOY to my life. Its like evolution. The greatest survive. Tough shit if your crap. Everyone gets treated the same, whatever path you choose as your job.
CoolFunkMan Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I've seen that damn' Shelia's Wheels advert again recently, it annoys the HELL out of me. I mean, what's with the singing? Why are they dressed like such bimbos? I hope that they end up crashing that car into a wall... at high speed... then the car explodes. That'd show them for their damn singing!! I think Charlie Brooker sums up my opinions on many adverts nicely here. Haha, nice!!
EEVILMURRAY Posted July 3, 2007 Author Posted July 3, 2007 I've got another here, this Churchill advert with that lanky tosser boasting about how much of his desk filing clerk wages he's saved, with every sentence being followed by our main dog Big C's "Oh Yes!". Lanky tosser tries to get a piece of the action by repeating Big C. That's not my main beef with this advert, it's the reaction of the crowd. Check the front row, to the left. There's this old bloke recoiling as if the smell of the shit that Chinese kid had in the Glade advert had wafted into his nostrils.
EEVILMURRAY Posted August 3, 2007 Author Posted August 3, 2007 I'm quite curious as to if some people agree with me on this. But on that Morrisons ad with Denise Van Outen, anyone think that it looks like she's just been introduced to the word "premises"?
