I know times are hard but I suggest a bra might give you more support....

Can't get one on what with the advert GETTING ON MY TITS MORE.

Can you complain to the ASA on the basis something is utter bilgewank?

I don't think I've seen the ad to be honest Blush

ThisIsNotHoneyDragon · 28/08/2012 23:06

eurgh you will

its actually a non event, its all dh's fault for pointing it out, and making me notice it.

It goes on about how awesome they are for giving away shit, talking about football and having naked ladies in it.

Ive seen the ad. complete utter arsehat doing some lengthly crappy speech about bollocks. with some tits and biscuits thrown in for good measure.

YANBU to start a thread to express that opinion, but YABU to use AIBU to do that without at least saying something like "AIBU to be pissed off by these adverts?".

ThisIsNotHoneyDragon · 29/08/2012 08:58

I thought I summed it up in pure wankery Wink

I also may have to report myself for wording an op with the deliberate intention of goading Trills

Don't read the Sun if it annoys you.

Sallyingforth · 29/08/2012 09:26

Or is it an advert FOR the sun? Look the other way then. I seem to avoided it.

ThisIsNotHoneyDragon · 29/08/2012 09:26

The bobbing disembodied heads they did years ago were better because you could take them as cheeky fun or fantasise about decapitating minor celebs who advertised the Sun.

Sallyingforth · 29/08/2012 10:31

I very rarely watch TV ads. Most of our watching is done through a Freesat PVR, so we just zap through commercial breaks.

It really annoys me. I cant understand why other people buy the damn thing. The obvious bothers me, that they portray young women as passive, nearly naked and up for it. Even for the people who arent annoyed by the objectification of women, why do they want to buy a paper which is associated with the the company accused of hacking of Millie Dowler's phone. It never ceases to amaze me. I woudnt buy anything from an organisation like that. Her poor parents - I bet they dont buy the Sun! I wish someone would explain it to me. I have actually asked people who have the rag and they just get really defensive and just say 'Oh, I dont know'.
