There are just so many adverts out at the moment which I can't stand. I think my worst, for now, are the seemingly endless series of sexy yoghurt adverts, especially the Nicole Scherzinger ones where she is constantly getting yoghurt on her nose and giggling about it. URGH!

That fuckawful thing with the girl who's having singing lessons and she sings to her dad in the car. I can't remember what it's advertising because her singing is so shit

^this.

I'd be asking the singing teacher for my money back if I was her parent.

[SCENE: PITCHING MEETING BETWEEN AD AGENCY AND FLORA]
AD EXEC: "Ok, you'll like this one - two kids make their parents some breakfast using DELICIOUS FLORA and the parents aren't interested because they are too busy shagging, so the kids eat it instead. It's extra cute because the kids actually walk in on the parents as they shag!"
FLORA EXEC: "Seems legit."

Oh daytime ads are a separate level of shite! They assume that everyone at home during the day is interested in:

Bingo
Spurious compo claims
Walk in baths

Bastards Angry
