to not be able to understand adverts anymore

I think I got so disengaged from mainstream culture I can't even comprehend advertising anymore....

Stuck at London x-cross station and I think I've just seen a child / grandparent, due wearing pyjamas, ride a train up a teddy bear's vagina...wtf is going on?

This was followed by an advert for iphone highlighting that you can get a new phone every year as an option....I mean a new phone every year? Wtf are they making them out of? cardboard? Do iphones now dissolve in the rain?

Then some sort of shaver advert that had a freaky composite face thing going and an advert implying we should be grateful to a coffee company for turning their grounds into fuel logs...because presumably global warming is going to affect someone else's planet and children and not ours...

I'm just so confused....and would quite like to get off the world please.

Is it always like this, or is it because christmas is looming?

Huh?

Without you finding those adverts I doubt anyone can currently help. I'd say most adverts with the exception of perfume adverts tend to make sense though.

The phone one is explained by the fact that people like having the latest model/newest technology. They're not just getting the same phone.

What is a due, and why was it wearing pyjamas?

Morphene · 13/11/2017 17:13

sorry that was a typo...a 'duo' not a 'due'

There was a spiral slide...a ball pool...and then a train zooming between a teddy bears legs...

Maybe it makes sense with the sound....

Ah ok, that makes more sense! Grin

Well, as much sense as the 3.15 express to Bear Vagina can.
