My brothers partner eats her weetabix with butter and jam spread on them just like in that ad.

He needs to bin her with immediate effect. Or bin her weetabix.

Jesus, how can anyone eat weetabix dry?

the awful crappy song covers continue

That one adverting men’s underwear with that unfortunate looking man, I don’t want to see that! “Step one, get some”

"Don't just buy ANY toothbrush. get one "INSPIRED" by dentists."

Yeah, hi, what in the name of Satan's left bollock does this mean

I like to think of an eminent sculptor throwing down his tools in frustration at the masterpiece that is eluding him, before breathing deeply and pausing to meditate in front of a photo of Mr Jivanjee from my childhood dentist surgery.

Anyone seen that shitty advert with the god awful Good Life cover

Better than the one with the slowed down version of this

There was a dreadful slow cover of Major Lazer's Lean On doing the rounds recently too.

using those upbeat songs covers too make it a "meaningful" slow version for car insurance or a supermarket promo is terrible

The cover advert of this song is crap as well, the cover band suck the life out of it

It should be illegal to alter the lyrics of a song for an advert.

It should also be illegal to write a song with the cynical intention of it being perfect for adverts (ala Moby).

That SHE'S SO LOVERLEEEE SHE'S SO LOVERLEEEEEEE one is a classic example. Make a shitty little chorus with lyrics perfect for an advert.

I don't think he (Moby) intended to make an entire album (Play) of ad songs, it just kind of happened due to the nature of his music.

Later albums however were definitely full of deliberately MOR ad-friendly songs.

Volvo have got on the shitty whimsy covers bandwagon with a cover of Born To Be Wild for their new car ad

Marketing in general has been pissing me off recently. So many shitty products or services, and marketing plebs desperate to tell us how vital and amazing they all are, often in the most annoying way possible.

The Weetabix advert is really annoying. Adding 'abix' onto the end of everything isn't funny, or good, or clever, it's just gooseberry fool.

The Pepsi one with Messi and some others, the music is just an awful noise. Seems to be on constantly as well.

And then that one with Snoop Dogg. I don't even know what it's for as I mute it straight away, but strawberry floating hell. His rapping's always been shite, and even more so when it's about some food or whatever. And he looks like the offspring of a weasel and a toad. Don't need this crap on my TV every few minutes.

At least the adverts about 'being in it together' or 'the new normal' seem to have stopped now. Except the McCain one, with that northern guy going on about being family or something. Ugh.

I really don't get why Snoop Dogg is popular.

Peanuts was always pretty popular cartoon.
