Crap Adverts
What annoys me:
- Santander "you blah you save, you sh*t you save, you piss you save, you crack up and get drunk you save..."
We get the bloody point, we get a 0.000001% interest in what little we can put aside
- Confused - the cartoonist really is a boob man isn't he? Its a bit disconcerting in a cartoon.
- Subway - eat a sandwich and theres a bit of overly salted veg on. It's the fake banter between the athletes "wot? no halapenos?" "Ive a tentative mowth innit"
- Santander "you blah you save, you sh*t you save, you piss you save, you crack up and get drunk you save..."

TV remote broken?
You can get replacements you know...
Anyway, the word "crap" in your title is superfluous.

I don't know what half of these advertising agencies think, oh yes this will sell our product and wont be annoying at all
Ack I wasn't in charge of the remote, I put NCIS on for the other half shes into it. I have that sky+ but I only tape a few programmes. Sometimes if Im having a cheeky bevvy and need a pee, I pause the programme then can fast forward the adverts.steve_earwig wrote:TV remote broken?You can get replacements you know...

Also the adverts can be very loud compared to the programmes.
Apologies if the title is offensive

I mind at school, the teacher would wheel out the old TV to watch a geography tape, one of the old TVs that had a remote but didnt have a screen indication of what youve done.
One of the lads in my class had one of those Casio watches that has a TV remote built in. He tuned the frequency to the TV, then would turn the volume way down. The teacher would go to the TV and scratch his head, then he would turn the volume up full

Funny times

Re: Crap Adverts
subway always seems to be a huge queue, the person in front always seems to have an awkward order, then I want mine toasted and they burn it and have to make it again.
I liked the BBQ ribs subway made, but they stopped doing them.
They didnt seem to be about until 10 years ago now theyre everywhere. I mind a film I watched years ago some big fella is at some fancy high rise building and orders a subway and they deliver it and its about 5 foot long.
Its the athletes in that advert, and the fake gladiators announcer then the man saying "ive gorra tentative mowth awrite!" that do me head in!

Re: Crap Adverts
It's not offensive. just the word "crap" is unnecessary - adverts are crap by definition.sirwiggum wrote:Apologies if the title is offensive
I have a big problem with advertising, I realise the basic idea is so you see a familiar brand and buy it but what I reckon is either they can afford to advertise so they must be making too much money, therefore their product is overpriced -or- they're part of some greedy global corporation whose products I should be boycotting anyway.
I cringe when I see adverts for Peugeot. Conversely, I laugh when I see Toyota ones...

Re: Crap Adverts
Some crap car ads at the moment:
- Peugeot - the man who has another man that is meant to be his body, despite the fact that he is *in* his body. Might have worked on a more metaspiritual level.
- Toyota - Those bloody cartoon people selling some Yaris
- Citroen - the orchestra with static noise played over trying to convince us that if you buy a DS5 you will get some modern white noise instead of something classy and elegant.
- Audi - ugly duckling. The new S5 isn't so much an ugly duckling to swan as the automotive the equivalent of the Alpha Male in a cockfight.
- bmw - Mostly anything by these muppets. Especially that last 1 series one "my brother is an architect". no. He would drive a Saab or now a Volvo. 1 serieieieses are for junior execs gripping the greasy pole.
- Kia - that one where they stop and start 'ever fallen in love' and then play it to an obviously fake football crowd who seem to have taken the wrong turn into a rock concert
- Datsun Qashcow / Joke - the Qashcow advert that has everyone convinced that the replacement for the sunny is a tonka truck and they can therefore drive like numpties, and the Joke advert where they build the car as it falls.
- Merc - first that mulholland drive advert for the coupe then the new a class advert where they just show brief stills and some twitter hashtag.

When you get 'paid' just give me the money back*. Simple eh?

"BORROW £2000 FOR AS LONG AS YOU LIKE!!!!!!
APR 1435% Applies "
Daytime adverts are grim, they seem to be all about claiming back from a fall, or PPI, and always have huge phone numbers printed across the screen.
Or those windows adverts with that irish man who goes "now be honest, you didnt expect everest to do that, did ya?"
Well, I hadnt heard of this everest crowd until you mentioned them, so i didnt have a clue what they did! I thought it was mountaineering equipment!
