    No it has to be that three advert with the two chinese/japanese cowboys and the giant jellyfish... i mean, wtf??

    I think they're trying to do an advert in the style of guinness, that has some obscure reference to their product (ie the surfers waiting for the perfect wave = waiting for the perfect pint = good things come to those who wait) but that just has no sense whatsoever.
    two oriental cowboys dragging a giant jellyfish from the desert back to their apartment and giving it a drink of god knows what = we like sharing..... HOW?!? And besides, what does sharing have to do with selling phones? As we all know 90% of telco's are money grabbing b*****ds

    Its just weird for the sake of being weird and they all must die in the face.

    *edit*
    i'm that annoyed now i'm gonna have to get the rant out...

    ahh thats better

    Sharwoods Bundh advert with the 'loud' food. Apparently in Urdu 'bundh' means 'bum'- an apt description for such a poo advert.

    Rich :¬)

    Edit: while I'm at it: Charmin adverts. Whoever did them should be put out of their misery.

    Actually I quite liked that one, with the old Punjabi MC blasting out everytime they lifted the lid!

    Although these adverts are anoyying they worked havent they? They got them into our minds and are talking about them.

    eSure are the best at making bad adverts methinks. Consistantly.

    3 advert - bizarre but groovy robotronic dancing by the cowboy

    I agree - daytime TV adverts aimed at old people who have no pension plans etc and they want them to remorgage their houses with xyz company.

    Grrrrr - These OLD people helped with the 2nd world war and now they are getting shafted like this....

    I find all the constant bloody hair and skin care adverts annoying, especially when they make words up to make their products sound amazing, "Contains ceratyn overgunge" or some such cr@p.

    Yeah they're a complete load of boswellox to be honest.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Acctually you will find they are not, or atleast most, are not - they just have stupid names. Google for them if you dont belive me.

    However I agree they are annoying, you average chav - which is whom 99% of adverts are targetted at, becuase they dont know better will think that chemical is the only thing that matters, when in reality that particualr chemical could really have no effect atall. Chances are it will give you cancer.

    Adverts are by nature, biased. They do not inform, but mis-inform and on that basis they should be banned. If that were to happen, the world would be a better place.
