That fucking McCain advert.

edited January 2023 in General Chat
What a load of bollocks, didn't know one advert could be so tedious (and how fucking long?)

Not only has it made me want to go out and purchase enough oven chips to last me a life time, i've also got this irresistable urge to go and brutally murder the Marketing Director. :o

    I dont think I've seen that one.

    The most recent O2 one with the chinese people finding a jelly fish and then giving it a drink is just too wierd.

    But your right. It's weird.

    Does it really matter, does the advert have anything what so ever to do with phones?

    I feel as if i am missing out some how, and yeah adverts these days rarely have anything to do with what they are bloody advertising :p

    Surely this proves that making stupid and annoying adverts doesnt work!
    The viewers spend longer thinking about what a pile of poo the advert was and not about what ever product it is trying to promote.
    I would never get insurance from esure simply because i hated their adverts so much they actually made me angry when they came on and i ended up changing channels! :mad:

    The Halifax have the most annoying adverts ever devised by anyone ever.

    Not only am I going to make sure I never ever use them, but it seriously makes me consider hunting down their employees with dogs.

    Beans, no, we don't have a TV. It's b0rked at the minute, sadly, although even when it isn't we don't have a license as it's a waste of money.

    So you have the TV without a licence. Tut tut.

    Its worth the hundred quid just for Radio 4 alone.

    Yes, but you said, when its not broken we dont have a licence, this would insinuate that you watch it without one.

    The McCain advert is rubbish, but what about their products?

    Kermit, your perfectly legal doing that that, just ensure you are not plugged into the aerial.
