All dads have a beard, for starters.
it's proportionate to the amount of beardage in real life currently.

They were never cool, they're just for geeky nerds to try and feel manly.

Plus mine's gone grey long before any of my other hair so I'm staying clean shaven and young looking...

The curly haired, scruffy bearded everyman is a stock advertising cliché.

Saw an ad for Beagle Street this evening. For some reason the ad features a naked man in a bath and an ugly monster that's watching him bathe.

At one point the monster also seems to piss in the guys face (i accept it could just be squirted bath water but it's still weird either way) before exploding and turning into a supposedly cute animated creature (presumably a Beagle?)

I'm still not sure what the tenuous link between naked men bathing with monsters and life insurance is meant to be.

Although it could make for an interesting range of cuddly toys if they wanted to replicate the Meerkat's - 1 - a cuddly Beagle. 2 - an ugly monster. 3 - a naked man in a bathtub. Which will you get for your child to play with laugh

and at this time of year, every st university advertising on TV like you'll be the king of business or a fking astronaut and not working in a call centre if you go there. If you're that thick that you can't work out that only st universities need to advertise, then you may as well go there!

Pretty much all of the Ford adverts advertising the fact that they all have voice activated & txt reader! Who fking cares about that, I wan't to know how good the cars are not that they have a little screen where I can read my txt messages!!!! mad
No ones interested in that, people just want a giant mobile phone on wheels.
ineed. The car is aimed at the mobile phone obsessed teen/twenties market. They don't give a fk how good the car is as they can't afford to insure the car they want, or they don't care full stop about cars.
There latest advert in some big people carrier or what ever it is also shows nothing more than how you can call somebody without even pressing any buttons! This vehicle is not aimed at young people..... mad

Audi advert on last night where basically the car backs in to a table and knocks a record player off. Why would that make anyone want one!

That's the newer cut back version. When it first aired last year it used to say "Mummy. Teddy is very, very (then possibly another very), not very well banghead

I saw that one last night. The Audi A7 SportBack or whatever it is with the manually operable pop up rear spoiler. So originally designed for "aerodynamics" but soon to be seen permanently raised for the race look on every one being driven at 30mph or less, or on every re mobile stuck in stop start traffic on the M25 laugh

I think the Audi ad is something to do with not conforming to the identikit aspirational status. Audis couldn't be more that, however. Weird.
