Nearly all ads are crap. They're designed to be annoying, which is unreasonable to a point where I'm wondering if it's possible to sue them for assault!

The winner (loser) for me - and I started as thread about it a few weeks ago has to be the "Tui" ad.
The talentless girl cannot sing, let alone dance, the backing music is appalling, it's unavoidable and it's REALLY irritating.

The singing sisters for Nationwide are an improvement on the poetry selection they had previously. They made me change channel.
I agree about the chewing gum ad, I don't understand it.

The reedy voiced female singers with just a guitar or few notes on a piano, as you say, poppydog, are on SO many adverts. As far as I'm concerned, they don't work because I can't remember a single thing they've advertised.

Advertisers and advertising have taken over the world. This is a bad thing.

Like all the dramas. Struggling to remember when I last saw a white couple. I know of 2 to 3 such cases but I would know about 50 couples. You would assume from the dramas and these adverts it is something like 75%. No wonder the white indigenous population feels it is being belittled. Such feelings lead to anger, resentment and when the opportunity comes to express that anger and resentment...............
