Lovely day, crappy adverts...
Aug. 29th, 2005 04:04 pmDo you know what I really hate? Those 'More Than' adverts. I despise little yappy type dogs and I also despise it when dogs are really badly behaved and their owners just let them get away with it, because 'they're only having a bit of fun' (see also: Children.) So why would I become endeared to a small, badly behaved, yappy type dog, mm? The first ones were OK, because Lucky was lost, and there was the possibility that he might have been kidnapped for scientific experiments. The worst are the radio ads (crap local radio station always on at work & gym) where the owner is describing all the hilarious choas the little bugger's been getting up to. Two words: Neuter him.
Other adverts I hate: The really patronising ones for cleaning products, worst ones being Domestos (Cats don't PAWS to wipe their feet... Ho ho ho...) and that 'what does your loo say about you?' one (surely Kentucky Fried Movie ripped the piss out of that kind of advert over 30 years ago with 'Christ, did a cow shit in here?'). Also a new Frosties advert (My son's a hyperactive Ritalin case... so I give him More Sugar!) And, of course anything else with a little yappy dog in it (except that Mastercard one with the dogs behaving badly because the big dog stuck under the duvet cover was too cute for words.)
Worst one at the moment, though..? the Mazda advert where the shop dummies get turned on because they're in a Middle Of The Road Dad's car. I detest those ads anyway with their 'unleash your inner child, all you Midlife Crisis Men' message and their stupid 'Zoom Zoom' song, but a crappy car arousing brainless, lifeless beauties..? Gah! Go back to the 50's where you belong!
Rant over. It's a beautiful day, so I shall go and do something else.
