    Almost all the ads targeted at older people are so patronising.

    The company that's going to put solar panels on the roof of your business, and then "you just pay for the electricity you use" 😀

    I feel they're not quite selling the idea to me with that ..



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,095 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman


    Yeah, they didn't really think that out.

    I presume the mean that there's no standing charge which would be a good USP if they expressed it properly.

    Yup. I’d be wondering if you’re getting a reduced rate given they’re using your building as a site for their equipment. Great business model. Get the solar footprint the free, get the building owner to pay you for the electricity generated and sell any surplus back into the grid all while paying nothing for the ground you’ve installed on. I really dislike the business because that’s the perception of their model I’m getting from the ads.

    The Indo has finally created something more painful than Barry Egan regurgitating Noel Kelly's puff pieces with some presumably privately-educated wanker stretching every syllable.

    There's a company selling 'super eye-able' broadband now.

    Maybe, it has a very attractive looking modem 🤔 ??

    **** off Jack Reacher, I wonder how a short arse like Tom Cruise got to play him in the film.

    **** off Sive, is that someone doing an impression of John Kavanagh

    The Jack Reacher franchise has been taken over (written) by Lee Child's younger brother in the guise of a joint effort,very poor the last few books were.

    The current ad for the charity organisation GOAL has a kind of punch line that ends in " because that's what Goalies do", but it appears to me that this line should have been preceeded with something about "saving"( maybe lives) to make it meaningful. As it stands it seems like something is missing.

    I think I just heard an ad advertising a trip to IKEA as a fun day out.

    "a terrible war imposed by the provisional IRA"

    I'm waiting for the mysterious Meadows and Byrne to pop up again for xmas.

    Never did find out what they stock.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,025 ✭✭✭✭whisky_galore


    Interior tat. No real life Meadows or Byrne, a made-up name invented by a PR company.

    Will Bothar ads be back on the road this season?

    A walk around IKEA manages to induce the symptoms of a hangover without the need for any alcohol

    "Will the public ever trust our shonky charity ever again, Camel?"

    Talking about ‘phone in’ charity radio ads, the current one for UNICEF is kind of mad. Starts off with some dude talking over a phone line asking us to listen to someone ‘on the ground’ in wherever it is. The on the ground person sounds very clear so either they did a WhatsApp voice message or, more cynically, they aren’t on the ground anywhere remote and are a voice actor. It begs the question though, what’s up with the dude phoning in his bit? Also you can practically hear the cuts and edits in the voice overs. Time for these phone in ads to die in 2023 I think.

    Wee Daniel advertising hearing aids. It could ruin his career if his demographic start hearing what he really sounds like 😂.

    Wee Daniel don't make too many mistakes, no flies on that lad, he didn't make millions from a mediocre singing voice out of the blue, he's gates wide as we'd say down here😉
