“I didn’t even know Oral B made toothpaste”

[BlueberrySkies]

They’ve removed the line from the ad

Someone on here once really made me laugh about the Tena lady pretty pads one when they woman is getting married, expressing concern about "whizzing along on a zipwire, pissing yourself as you go, and arriving at your wedding."

@NeutralJanet
My most rage inducing one is Simon Cowell pretending he doesn't know how credit cards work. Suuuure, Simon

I hate that advert too, not only because he looks like a reanimated puffy zombie but also how generally patronising it is, like when multi millionaire Bono finger wags for not donating enough

The Femfresh ad is pretty bad too. The young girl talks like Tony Blair.

The Nationwide poetry/ spoken word ones give me the rage. I have to mute the tv. The couple in the photo booth were the worst, that seems to have run its course now.

The Tui holiday ads are bad too, especially the one with the grumpy teen and dancing mother.

Yes! The poetry ones! I always turn the sound off ( then forget to turn it back on and miss some of my program 🙄)

The Cadbury one. If my dd came out of a shop with a bar of chocolate I know she couldn't have paid for, I would match her straight back In!

This thread is hilarious 😂😂 I noticed they'd dropped that line as well OP. And yy to the "I feel protected. And pretty"....gives me the rage

I un-muted the Oral B ad tonight, just to see the "I didn't even know they made toothpaste!" removed.

I recently bought an Oral B electric toothbrush and it came with a tube of toothpaste. I actually said to my husband "ooh,I didn't know Oral B made toothpaste" (runs away)

To be convicing you kind of hope she turns to smile at the camera and her teeth are almost all gone as surely that's what your mouth would look like if you didn't know how to look after your teeth??

This advert annoys me so much. I said the same to my OH and he actually said he didn't realise they made toothpaste until he saw the advent!!!!

It's the Maltesers ad that gets me every single time. The one with the two doctors having a chat on their break. "You know that necklace you left at mine?" I swear all I can here is "You know that KNICKERS you left at mine?"

Surely I can't be the only one?

I blame useless ignorant YOUNG advertising executives.

Eg the advert for WhateverTheFuckItIs[fail]:

"I need to bake a cake but my fridge is broken" - when anyone with the tiniest, most insignificant, smear of life experience, knows that NOTHING you need to bake a cake needs refrigerating.

Aha. And I thought I was the only one.

I switch this ad off, every time. And the Fixodent woman inside the giant mouth. I have to make her disappear before the apple crunch. Will try shouting at them instead, a la MN, as I am fed up of then forgetting to turn back on and missing the first three or four minutes after each ad break.

Mind you, I have just been watching Victoria on catch up and there is a cartoon couple buying a Bosch washing machine from somewhere. That advert also needs a MN health warning for irritating/grating voices too. They are bizarrely monotone, and need shouting at loudly . . .

Balloon when anyone with the tiniest, most insignificant, smear of life experience, knows that NOTHING you need to bake a cake needs refrigerating

Hmm... butter or Stork? Milk in some recipes? Cream for the filling?

We all scream ‘I didn’t know oral B even made toothpaste’ to the bloody tv every time this comes on!! I will never buy oral b!! Shite advert.

My response is to shout at the telly, ‘what d’you think they make you daft cow? Fucking coal shovels?’

My dear departed mother and I were always hugely amused by the TenaLady ads. The woman jumping around, dancing and grinning and having so much fun while merrily pissing herself.

Anyone on 'twitter' want to post a link to this thread on the OralB account

The one for a pelvic floor exercise machine. It straps on to the thighs, that's not where pelvic floor muscles are. Also the woman says something about not pissing herself laughing anymore.

Can anyone actually think of a worse line in an advert? I mean this one wins the prize. She might as well have said " I didn't even know Pepsi made fizzy drinks! Tee heeheehee"

Oral B woman and her witless enthusiasm for toothpaste

Pepsi make fizzy drinks?!!

I’m so glad others share my rage! It even worries DH a little that I shout at the TV when ‘that’ ad’ comes on. I have this back story to explain why she doesn’t know how to clean her teeth or that Oral B makes toothpaste. I think her folks belonged to a bizarre sect where toothpaste, and all other features of modern life, were banned. She has escaped and is embracing modernity with more enthusiasm than nous, hence someone told her about peppers and now she collects them, purely to marvel at their beauty (she had to wipe the earth from a turnip before). She thinks fitness classes are some form of worship so she causes some confusion during her cardio class by yelling ‘amen’ during the warm up. This is the only explanation for her wide-eyed fervour IMHO
