Probably been done before, but that Cockney Vauxhall Van advert on Talksport drives me up the wall.

"And 'ere's a message for van owners..."

I know the media is meant to portray a range of local accents but this is just too much!! :rant:

Then on talksport there is now a site, that compares the price comparison sites. When is it going to end?

Does anyone actually use these sites?

Any advert in which the company simply makes up the name for a combination of chemicals... eg:

Activia: Digestivus Bifidum < MADE UP!

Any beuaty treatment to make you (wimmin) look younger and invents some new chemical such as 'Ceramide R' or 'Pro-retinol Oxyglase'.

Why are products dealing with embarrassing body issues- incontinence, flatulence, diarrhoea, constipation etc- always advertised by women?

theres an annoying trend at the moment to include a sort of kooky 'poignant' song, coupled with fictional movement- such as bouncing on grass, putting your hand through a 'stretching' window that kinda thing

AND IT REALLY FUCKS ME OFF

Because blokes don't care so much about embarrassing body issues?

If a woman "breaks wind" in public she is (usually) mortified. A bloke just claims them!

That's got to be the easiest job in the world though, hasn't it?

Head of Inventing New Wonder Substances at L'Oreal?

You could just make anything you like up, and Bob's your uncle, rich women are queuing up to pay £18.00 for a bottle of the stuff, because it contains UltraserotoxybolloxatideF, which not only clears pores but reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Brilliant.

:suckers:

Hate the ambulance chaser adverts

"Broken your leg?
Not you faullt?
Good! We'll make money on it!!"


Or the consolidation loan adverts

"Up to your neck in debt?
Own your house?
Good. Borrow some more money you can't afford! We don't give a toss we can always sell your house!"

True, but even a bloke can't laugh off explosive diarrhoea in the middle of a business meeting, can he?

i saw an awful one the other day, gave it all the "enJOY your RETIREment" and all that, with the odd terrifying small print popping up "you will no longer own your house" for example

Yep, allow Ocean Finance to consolidate all your thousands of pounds worth of debts into one giant debt, then you can fool a card company into giving you a new credit card and spend two grand on a new 50" plasma screen telly.
