I thought their could be nothing worse than the people reading meaningful poems. But I was wrong.

Bank and Building Society ads have always been awful. I worked for one of the big 4 and cringed every time a new ad was aired.

Also that bit about showering in the sink and ‘my feet smell like gravy’.

Fuck off you annoying, low expectation having wankers!

Gosh such reaction from an advert, can't say as I've seen it, but don't watch tv, much.
Are people watching adverts not for fun now, are you all bored?
