Don't know if I've seen that one, but I've seen other LF ads. They are soooo kooky :roll: . That's the problem with most adverts these days. They can't be bothered to think of anything decent or original, so just try and be whacky and "random". I'd love to work in advertising. Seems like such an easy gig at times.

I've not even seen a good car advert in ages, and they used to be amazing :(

Here's an advert I love, the Morning Rescue ad from Japan.



The adverts I hate? strawberry float off webuyanycar.com. Even if I had a car I wouldn't sell to you thanks to your shitty add.

You love Japan so much you even watch Japanese adverts. Have you ever considered you might have some sort of problem with this obsession?

The woman in this advert sounds remarkably like 'The Duchess' in Thunderbirds (the one where the house burns down).

Oh god those strawberry floating direct line ones :x :x :x :x

The mrs has to distract me while they're on otherwise i'm usually stood up shouting :lol:

What in the strawberry float would make someone want to buy their service?! I just don't get it. They're not remotely funny, but have this stench of smugness about them.

Probably made by an advertising agency called 'Mega Duck Media' or something shite like that, and only commissioned because the boss of DL is strawberry floating the buxom work experience girl.

Annoying dancing banana split and an annoying brass band. Lovely.

I know it's basically what Sandy describes in terms of being 'lol randum', but the "hooky hook" (Lynx?) advert made me laugh.

I don't actually watch many adverts these days as I tend to watch everything, bar news and sports, recorded.

Radox, actually. There wouldn't a Lynx advert without at least five women in various states of undress, and the advert in question has three people total in it.

The only part of that video that raised a slight chuckle was the "Well, I'm not gonna tell you what to do" "No, I'm just gonna heavily imply it" bit.

Most of the rest of it is just him calling the people in the advert names. Wow, he so witty :|

Also she is plain and accessible. This appeals to my demographic. I'm willing to wager that all ladies on this match dot com will be of the same ilk, and therefore be suitable for my breeding ambitions.
