I read that in the fashion

of a drunk saying "what are you looking at?"
True story


i like this.

are you open to suggestions of adverts?


yes.


.

- the one where that lady sings about being chunky and funky
- the aquafresh one with the teeth and the boy growing up
- foxy bingo


^ the first one i had the unfortunate privilege of watching that advert on you tube yesterday.

probably the most disgusting ad i've ever seen in my life. the part which especially kills me is where the lady says funky monkey. jesus fucking christ.


What on earth is a funky monkey?

Is it the only thing that rhymes with chunky?


Can you do

the Weightwatchers one? Most patronising advert I've ever seen.


i've never seen any gash on adverts i've watched

i didn't know they were allowed to show explicit images.


did i really deserve that?

does anyone deserve that? i'm not going to be able to sleep tonight because of you. ;(


How about just the new video wall

adverts on tube platforms. People are transfixed by them - IT'S JUST A FUCKING 118 ADVERT!


diddanuvver one

iniit


good choice.

i hate smug travelers.


Please do that

'thank you hills' one. I really want to see that one get taken to the cleaners.


dunnoifiknowit


Is it BMW?

It's this annoying bloke going 'thank you hills - you make us ladeladela. thank you stop signs. you give us a rest'. It's really pleased with itself.

Like this http://youtube.com/watch?v=n_-yyDV9G8k but not French.


MOAR PLZ


absolutley

ANY couch advert, like DFS ,sofa world or whatever. they are totally pointless, we all know that noone pays full price for a sofa these days and that if i wanted one just about any sofa shop will have a sale on at any point during the year. i do not need reminding of this fucking fact every fucking day! grrrrr! i mean come on, i dont think ive ever seen a sofa for sale at full price! ever! rant over


I like it! :)

It reminds me of this though:

truely terrible advert, i hide everytime it comes on tv.


:D

yay


It's in mine too

Keep it going.


I intensely dislike advertisements for

Garlic, The Nazerene and the rising on Jesus Christ, the one true son of God, three days after his crucifixion.

bla......BLA!


I'd request the

DFS Nickelback one, but it speaks so eloquently of its excremental qualities by itself.


i have a strange relationship with that one

I think I might like it in its ridiculousness. It makes me happy, like MoooooooooooonPiiiiiiiiig


Adverts absolutely enrage me

I like this. Might link it on my shitehawk blog full of my shit ramblings about nothing like the middle class cunt I am.


ArkleyAngst FTW!


.

the fact the green screen is so appalling makes me a bit sad...


I just read all three

fucking brilliant. So many great bits - a personal fave; senile game show host doing the "Is this Heaven!?"- face.

I'm going to be checking back for more, keep them coming!


thanks

Might even attempt to make it slightly more regular!


if you need anyone to contribute

i'd be happy to, i've seen a few adverts i wouldn't mind slagging off.


more regular.

yes. stop wasting time on here when you could be writing amusing diatribes for me to read.

Now get to it my dancing jester monkey!


i like it :D


did anuvver

It's shorter and not as good...soz

in a hurry


nah

it's good


I'm not too sure about this blog

It seems to be going for the annoyingly overused "LOOK AT ME, I'M THE MODERN ANGRY MAN." persona.


He does it well

because he says how he likes certain things as well and admits there are good points to some shows too as well as bad ones.


I think ehwhat's

infinitely funnier than Charlie Brooker, who is a grade a cunt.


i'm surprised noone has said this yet...

but this is like that thing in the guardian guide. the bit where they write about adverts.


Charlie Brooker's thing?

Yeah, that's half been mentioned.


no! the thing

on the first page
the 'hard sell' or something.


this is good stuff

it's like my own miserable thoughts, if only i could be bothered to document them!
