Even more adverts you despise

There's been a lot of Muppets on the TV in the last week, Trump, Vance, Orban, and a whole range of tractor blockade 'spokesmen'. All of them inarticulate to the point that they must be generated by Ai (Artificial Ignorance). Real people couldn't possibly be that dumb surely?

The range rover ad with the British historical mansion, yer man driving up the steps and the huge dog. (Irish wolfhound?)

Never have I said w*nker so many times in one ad. It's an old one but the w*nkeriness has not faded.

Who is that meant to appeal to?

Ooh er, the ad agency in its creative summary says its her knee. Your man's arse is singing though.

I mentioned this ad before and couldn't recall the product at the time, it was so obsequious, but it was on again the other evening. It's another trend bending pastiche from Vinted, in which a suitably diverse hippyish couple living in other people's junk are preparing for the arrival of twins, buying up matching Victorian baby baskets and the like, she as a kind of IKEA looking Scandinavian amazon, he resembles a retired Mo Salah who could do with a restored razor.

Blah de blah, the babies enter the picture, they circulate with them in a sea of tat, and next thing you man turns side on, and he has a Post Partum baby bump. Poor man, he'll have to get some vintage Ozempic somewhere to get his figure back.

Ironically, the ad was during a break in the movie 'Junior', a DeVito and Arnie comedy sequel where DeVito puts Arnie up the pole, leaving the terminator with a huge bulge for most of the harmless romp.

I wonder if their 'savings' was a type of gratuity for agreeing to do the ad. Were they canvased to do it, then got a more favourable quote?

Posting photos of herself and culprit rubbing bellys... on a beach in Barbados or somewhere. The nanny minding the three kids I assume, its easy to look after kids when someone else does it. I lost all empathy when I read she abused some solo passenger on a flight for not seat swapping his PREPAID PREBOOKED seat for one of her families random allocations. On a flight from some sunspot too. Even during Covid. When I had to have my 40th anniversary outside an Applegreen, coffee and a bun, only place open and within the travel distance embargo. Different rules for us fools.

Curmudgeons, and proud of it.
