A real joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Baron99   778 #122 Posted February 19, 2019 Many of the latest bank ads that are all touchy-feely. Particularly hate the bank ad, (can't remember which bank), that has a number of celebrities with post-its stuck to their foreheads, trying to guess their particular disability / illness, e.g. Victoria's Pendleton with the word 'Bulimia' stuck to her head.  When I go into a bank for business, I want people behind counters who can provide me with speedy banking services not their ability to provide some kind of counselling on the basis that they've had half an afternoon on some training course about disability / mental illness.   Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

jaffa1   10 #125 Posted March 6, 2019 I detest  the Nescafe Gold advert where a man stands on the stage asking the audience  " stand up if you've ever seen me cry" then " sit down if you've  lost touch with me" What a stupid stupid advert just for a cup of coffee.

It's both funny and entertaining.  However the Andrex ads discussing the state of one's starfish is really weird.  Edited April 3, 2019 by tinfoilhat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Baron99   778 #130 Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) All of the various 'Peleton' adverts.  All that over-shouty, over enthusiastic fake 'Americanism' motivational speech to pefect people, (models), supposedly working out in their perfect metropolitan homes.    Edited April 25, 2021 by Baron99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
