Sorry but the Doritos band annoy me and the Mentos ads just don't make any sense.

The Southern Comfort ad is great, purely because I know want a shaggy dog to basically be my companion through life. Would be amazing.

That Sky advert with David Beckham is good too - purely because of Stevie though.

The suggestion is Mentos make you cool or at least stop you from being a knob. Believe it or not, this stuff often works. Advertising is a powerful medium.

Quite liking confused.com's 'brian' much better than the annoying COOOONNNFUUSED.com song

I bet others hate him.

Slightly off topic but called someone at work a Dimebar the other day. They hade no clue what I was talking about and we ended up YouTubing the adverts.
Still make me laugh, "Armadillo, soft on the inside, hard on the out"!

Persil - The girl walking in the field with paint thrown at her.

Somehow it just seems to work and I love the music (M83 - Outro if anyone is looking for it).

The new advert for KFC - something about a box for 1

He's going to order a 'box for one' and asks her if she wants anything..... "no" she replies, "I'll just have some of yours!"

He then has to explain to stupid woman that a 'box for one' is exactly that.

And why is a KFC like a woman?

Because once you've finished with the breasts you've got a greasy box to put your bone into... getmecoat

The holiday company ad with the very lovely brunette - Secret Escapes? - a fine ad, if only for totally superficial reasons! Holla indeed.
