What is the most ridiculous statement you've read in an ad? Behaviour traits played down or covered up with nice language/positive spin? Is there a knack to spotting when something is probably best avoided?
E.g my experiences...
Green = sat on once, in a stable
Cheeky = eats children
Compact = 4 inches shorter than advertised
After having my confidence knocked after some let-downs I did try a pony once advertised as 'bombproof', and contrary to this thread he really was! I was taken for a hack on him which included a busy high street. Buses passing inches away, police sirens and pedestrian crossings. By the time we got back I was so clamped onto him in fear that I couldn't get off, but he didn't even blink! Wish I'd bought that bloody pony!
