Guest   #1 Posted July 19, 2016 Earlier I saw an advert on tv which was about the Workplace pension. What's with the big multi-coloured monster thing? is this subject/advert aimed at children?  Its the same with banking and general financial services, all advertised in a juvenile way; its no wonder people don't take these things seriously.

Lex Luthor   10 #2 Posted July 19, 2016 Oh, it's Ian Duncan Smith's lovely fluffy larger than life £8.5m 'Workie'.  Doesn't make his £39 breakfast on expenses seem all that bad now, does it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Crosser   10 #7 Posted July 19, 2016 What is it with the dogs in the ads, the one for credit check that says I love you, (what the.... is that about) and the one where it throws his trousers away.  I thought that was an advert for crème brûlée (Wern't they a pop group in the '70s?)

At the same time he cut back on disabled allowances so the most vulnerable had to choose heating or eating. The shytalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Alcoblog   10 #10 Posted July 19, 2016 This ad for money lending really shows the depths advertisers stoop to. Who the hell's gonna borrow money off a company that that shows blatant mincing by a couple of brain dead, depraved, fat guys. Is it supposed to be funny? Is it an insult to other right minded gay people?  Same for that ad for some VW or another where a 'trendy' beardy wierdie dad's driving his kid to school with rap music blaring out of the stereo. Who's gonna buy a VW after that?  As for that ad for 118, the less said the better, although what that company does is, if not illegal, pretty close to.
