What's Boiling Your Pi$$ Today?

[DD67]

Adverts! Man adverts have always been annoying but there are ones on the telly that are not only shite but also so annoying that I find myself unconsciously reaching for things to put through the telly.

Two in particular really get on my wick -

One for some payment system where the person announces that the have it and a bunch of ridiculous twats all go ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh for ages and the other is the Dominos one with a bunch of tossers yodelling. Jeesus are there muppets in this country who actually find those adverts amusing?

You're a grumpy b@stard after my own heart Marty.
That Dominos advert has me swearing at the telly!
It is ridiculous & massively annoying. But, is it doing what its creators intended it to do?
We are talking about it

It makes me want to go to Pizza Hut

All these adverts seem to have a political undertones geared towards ethnics or queers, or play on our emotions sick of the lot of them so stopped watching

 

[Sarky B’stard]

We don't get those but the 'Poor accident record on this bend' indicates a nice technical multiapex corner

Or proximity to a sand and gravel quarry…… don’t ask.

And the dumbing down of the nation, most adverts are so infantile and patronising its insulting.... unless those making them are really that purile and juvenile that the result is all they are capable of.

@DD67 I have to say that I don't ever buy Domino's anyway. I think their pizza's are shite and they charge over the odds for them. Not to mention that the nearest Domino's to me is forty miles away or thereabouts.

Believe it or not most of the worst adverts are from supposedly the best agency Saatchi and Saatchi including the ones for BT that really are a pain in the ass. If I met the voiceover guy for those I'd give him a kicking as I hate his smug, noxious voice.

One of the reasons I prefer recording to streaming - you can fast forward through them all!

Always a bit pissed off when we have to stream something and can't.

[Daytona]

totally agree Doc, i record then watch at leisure where possible

I was about to say they must be cold and rubbery by the time the moped makes it to yours.

Choice of music is ironic though. Billie Eilish, "I'm the bad guy"

Another food advert has Enola Gay playing in the background. Another a while back had that song about the sinking of the Belgrano (the song name escapes me). Does nobody research these things?

 

[Foxy]

What song about sinking t'Belgrano?

What song about sinking t'Belgrano?

At a guess maybe Shipbuilding by Robert Wyatt (covered by elvis costello)

How are you gonna listen to the rat pack now?

Are the rat pack entombed within the CD changer?

This could end badly.... Duck playing with electrics again

 

[Sarky B’stard]

Yes, I had electric fencing for my chooks but it’s not recommended for ducks. Apparently they are naturally nosey so poke their beaks in and through then panic when they light up!

 

[Sarky B’stard]

Meanwhile saw this. It has his name all over it. Cool
