Yes, but the Lynx ad, with the Morgan Freeman look-alike, is class!

Thats rubbish! First of all, both morgan Freeman and the makers of Seven should sue, and second of all, why would a librarian have an overdue stamp? HOw can she stamp a book as overdue if its already out!?

Yes Dodge, you're entirely correct! Each individual, with library membership, should carry their own "overdue" stamp, in order to reprimand themselves!

Since your experience of a "library" is most likely limited to Chartbusters, I'll let you into a secret. It's not the book that gets stamped!

Any Harvey Norman ad.

Or was he

Just saw one tonight that I'd forgotten about. The Lucozade, "Bears in the Woods" effort. Makes me want to smash the TV.

Having worked in a library I'll say your sarcasm is misplaced...

No better person to say "Shssssssssh".

There is one ad right now I love. The Ballyfree turkey ad with the two foxes.

"If we're going to keep him, he's got to be neutered."

"I think it'd be worth it Frankie."

Classic.

I can't stand the Cillit Bang, Rabo Direct or Halifax ones.

Daft Dave really ****es on my Corn Flakes.

I actually hate him.

**KoemansCC** · 12/07/2007, 3:22 AM

Any UK ad for car insurance/health insurance/pet insurance/double glazing windows especially this one......

"you buy one, you get free....I said you buy one, you get free"

and those Admiral, Churchill, Hastings Direct ads (1066)...

...and don't get me started on ringtone ads....

"ring, ring, ring....bananaphone" anyone

...thankfully haven't heard them in a while but I thought they got more putrid as they progressed.

If you ever hear the very first ones again he sounds like a short tempered eccentric. In the subsequent ones it appears there's a concerted drive to make him sound more and more -to use an old fashioned term -handicapped.

Funny, funny guys.
