Reality in the adverts Vs real life

Does anyone know when we stopped laughing at those who took two bottles into the shower?

A bag of chewy sweets allows a family to stop in the middle of nowhere and sing with delight, rather than said sweets being opened and eaten prior to first services stop to halt said family bickering on long car journey.

that we all think it's ok that toddlers run bogroll companies that cut down trees. To wipe your arse. Trees - Arse.

Voiceovers in cinemas are another doublethink formulation: that they are all different films (each and every one worth paying to see) despite their being voiced by the same pompous American man. AAAAARGH!

becaroooo

Raise your scabby hands if you don't use Fairy.

Exciting, not excited.

Cruises are really excited and frequented by sassy 20 somethings who do extreme sports and then go for a massage frequently and are definitely not for incontinent geriatrics who just want to gorge at the buffet and then walk about criticising the natives.

A small bird will appear to clean my loo if I only buy the right loo cleaner. It will guard it from poo smells and bacteria for up to 24 hours. Presumably after this period the duck dies and blocks the loo but for comedy value I'm willing to take that risk to see the mallard go for it

People are so bothered about their dishwasher's performance that they need to be led to believe that the same technology goes into the development of the tablets that went into the Space Shuttle. (addendum: and people use up 10 plates' worth of room by putting in a gloopy burned casserole dish that's never going to get clean anyway.)

Would the ad men weep, do you think if they found out we all buy what's on special and think they're all much of a muchness?

And, d'you know, we don't CARE that the gloopy burned casserole dish won't get clean. We're not bone idle! As long as 99% of the plates, mugs and glasses are OK we are quite happy to scrub a pot or two.

TSC...... I thought mine were the only ones who despised baked beans! TV actually had me convinced on that one

Toasters pop the toast right out of the machine, so you have to catch it. Even toasters with a more conventional spring mechanism never catch the bread in their elements, causing you to root around inside them with a chopstick.

The aforementioned muddy-pawed dogs (or other animals) leave trails of neat, black paw-prints wherever they go, rather than the trail of random mud splodges and bits of grass that every pet I have ever owned has created.

When people talk about products, they always use brandnames, rather than saying "yoghurt" or "bog cleaner".

Children actively like baked beans. No child I know eats them willingly.

Moon Sand is a brilliant product.

Fabric softener is made from precious metals, the naturally fallen petals from exotic flowers and the soft breath of tropical winds. Not noxious, gloopy chemicals and artificial perfumes, not at all.

Coming soon: Lenor Sparkle, made from Unicorn's tears, Goblin spunk and fairy dust.

"Biffidus digestivum" is a normal thing to drop in to any conversation and will definitely create world peace

Perfume designers decide to put their purFUME in deodorant because they've seen us rushing round like blue arsed flies.
Whitening toothpaste makes you smile all the time.
Cats can talk telepathically.
A big fat bloke will burst into operatic song randomly advising you on how to get cheap car insurance.

Breakfasts. Must be cereal boxes and jug of milk on the table- no plastic bottles, at a push the old fashioned glass ones are ok.

And no one ever toasts some bread and puts it onto a plate. No, even in the busiest, most manic of households, the toast must be cut into triangles and placed in a toast holder. Just in time for a be-briefcased 'Dad' to grab before kissing his wife goodbye and dashing out the door.

I had that exact conversation about the Visit Scotland ads one day SuePurblyBilt I, personally, have never sniffed whisky in a proper distillery glass, while sitting in front of a roaring log fire wrapped in an Arran blanket. Do they only bring these things out for the tourists?

Have you noticed that women only wear glasses in adverts for opticians?

WRT holiday adverts . As in come to Wales - it's muddy 'cos it pisses down with rain a lot.

I dont watch adverts.

Because I'm worth it.

Buying this Disney/Pixar film for your child will produce grateful offspring, who are willing to turn off the television after the film and engage with you.

Highly paid film stars and models always use face cream that costs six quid, and they dye their own hair at home with Nice'n'Easy.

Well reading all these, it's clear that there's too much gratuitous laughing in all adverts. Do you think we could petition the advertisers to have a moratorium on grinning?
