Advertising disturbs me. Today adverts strive to be clever and advertising agencies try hard to come up with something fresh and new. What disturbs me about this is that in order to create 'amusing' or 'clever' situations they resort to the use of fairly dubious subjects. Infidelity seems to be today's 'popular' subtext. The number of adverts I see these days which use it, be it openly stated or it the background, is on the increase. Obviously I can think of similar disturbing recurring themes but this one seems to be the 'norm' these days. Thoughts? |

I'm sick to death of so-called humorous adds. 99% fail miserably in their money-grabbing antics. |

Yep- Archer's (alcoholic drink), Nokia, Smirnoff Ice, etc have all used infidelity quite blatently in ad campaigns in the last couple of years. |

I've always disliked TV adverts but the last few years has seen my dislike grow to extreme hate, and now I hate them so much that I can no longer even think coherently enough to come up with an explanation of my hate, I just see red and want to kill people. Advertising people. I've been conditioned. If anyone ever uses the words "because you're worth it" I could very well snap and go psycho. |

I just flip the bird at the screen and say 'fuck off' -- I find it very therapeutic. |

Are there any adverts you've liked? I used to enjoy some as a kid. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I do that too, and I reply with insulting comments to questions posed in the ads. "So you think you've found the perfect panty pad?" "FUCK OFF!!! I'M A MAN, YOU WHORE!!!" ok, so not particularly cutting or clever, but it does relieve the stress. |

Public information films. And really really old ads for really really old products that I'd almost forgotten about. |

I enjoy some commercials, but I forget what it's actually ADVERTISING, or I just don't give a shit! It can be an interesting artform though, especially the ones during the Super Bowl. But it never ever has an effect on me as a consumer, just as a television viewer. And I tend to enjoy magazine ads a lot... which is good considering half of them are ads now. I've never, ever, ever enjoyed a pop-up. I just close them, obtrusive fuckers. THEY are Satan's hellspawn. |

I try not to watch too much TV, Simpsons, Family Guy.. and the occasional Conan Obrian make it for me ... pretty much. Or some cool interesting show on A&E or something about crime or nature. |

Those 'Pifs' are soo nostalgic I can taste them! Check tv ark for all that nonsense. I had another site where they had the covers of old magazines and they had one called 'Input' I remember reading it from back to front, I remember the smell!! |

this kind of conjures up an image of you sitting in front of the television in your underpants, head all red and sweaty, drooling while you scream obscenities at the ad-ladies..! |

That reminds me of something I was dreaming about last night. Those scratch n sniff stickers you used to get. I have ones that smelled of popcorn and grass and stuff. And rubbers that smelled of coca-cola. Fantastic. |
