To Fucking Looooooathe that Advert....?

[blinks]

the one where the terribly middle class parents, who you just KNOW would normally take their offspring on a yurt building holiday or somesuch, break the ohsodelightful news to the kids that they're going to Shitneyland and they run around screaming with 'joy'.

i shudder every time i see it.

fecking go compare ads,drive me potty but love the fosters budgie smugglers one!

those stupid lager gang ads - spaceship, desert etc you know the ones

carling black label

anyone seen the milk ad with the cats?

The Mattesons one that was styled on 28 Days Later (a thriller/horror film) was really nasty. Anyone remember that? It got pulled by the regulator.

Ddubsgirl I brought a thread about this the other day.
Is it cats with thumbs?
I think it's brilliant.

yes thats the one,had seen people talking about it but saw it for the 1st time yesterday,soooo cool~!

The cats with thumbs one is my fave! But it's not as good as the Walls sausages ad from a few years back.

Surprised no-one mentioned the Advertising Agency ad starring Harvey the dog waiting to be rescued. He even has a video demonstrating his skills (ironing, putting the kids to bed, cooking, etc. It's fab, and I want to adopt Harvey. That's a REALLY good advert.

I guess it depends on what you class as expensive... cost us under 600quid to do disneyland paris for 5 days, staying on site b&B. Lunch was made out of the breakfast buffet and we ate evening meals outside of the park.

that was for 2 adults and 2 children (under 12).

Nobody has mentioned the dreadful Pampers 'Golden Sleep' adverts. It just makes me think of Golden Showers and then I feel a little bit sick.

Anyone remember the noodle doodle man for some shite spaghetti advert back in the 70's? Showing my age!

I want a Harvey!!

Noodle Doodle man was for Noodle Doodles that was the name of the shite spaghetti. Whats worse is now I've got the bloody jingle wizzing round in my head.

I love disneyworld been there twice, going again this year, we have spent less than those going on all inclusive to Caribbean, dosent have to cost the earth, but i can see what people mean if they are struggling, due to finances, (and yes i have also been so skint i couldn't even get kids school schools and have gone 4 years without holidays b4) but i have never been afraid to say to my kids, that they cant have stuff because we cant afford it, or that i think its shit a waste of money, and as my mother used to say when i asked if we could go abroad when i was a kid, "no you will have to work hard at school get a good job and pay for yourself to go when you are an adult" so i did!"

Yeah, but most families can't go all-inclusive to the Caribbean. My sister is a single parent and I don't think they have ever managed a family holiday, save one set of grandparents taking the boys to Cornwall when they went. Of course the kids have always been aware of the limits and never pestered, but four years without a holiday is hardly on the poverty line.

I went to Disneyland when I was 17, which is both too young and too old. I was astounded to see people actually stand up when the National Anthem was played.

Martine McCutcheon (sp?) is definitely the worst for me. She's like nails on a blackboard. Loving the cats with thumbs, but do not feel any urge to buy the product because of it.

never said i was on poverty line! and yes lots of families cant afford holidays but then again lots of families can, i have recently become single parent, and this holiday was already bought and paid for b4 i split from ex, but i know it will be the last my kids ever go on, unless i win the lottery!

I know you didn't MM, not judging you, just saying that for loads of families it isn't a cheap holiday at all

Mind you, a friend's family went en masse to Butlins four times a year - I'd far rather have gone once a year or once every two to somewhere overseas.

a fucking projector? pretentious much

I love Harvey! We all need a Harvey in our lives.

The ad I hate is the mouthwash one featuring people who look like they're chucking up in their mouths because the mouthwash is uuummmm so fresh. Vile.

I have the noodle doodle single!
Noodle doodles came to town, twisted in spaghetti, twist it all around and round and this is what you geti.

I cannot believe that nobody has mentioned the new Yellow Pages/Yell.com ad with the reworking of the J.R Hartley theme. It's now about a shit trance DJ and it's so cringeworthy I have to turn over as soon as it's on. They should've left the J.R Hartley theme alone as it was probably one of the best ads ever.

i hear you capricorn76. it's painful.
