This one for the new Seat Insomnia with the sixty year old tart getting dirty text messages read out by the car.
An affective assault on my virility.
I assume that she's replying to text sent to her daughter who's driving. Whatever, detestable advert and even more detestable feature - why anyone would ever want that in their car is beyond me and if it's an optional extra I can't imagine many people would take it up. It does seem strange to base your whole advert around it.An affective assault on my virility.

Any advert (usually for films) where a date is mentioned and the narrator says December four instead of December fourth.
Drives me mental
Even December fourth is incorrect - it's an Americanism. It should be stated as December THE fourth or the fourth of December.Drives me mental

But what particularly irks me at the moment are the online casino and betting ads. At certain times, on certain channels it seems that every other ad is portraying a sort of gambling utopia world that comprises of either matey blokes 'having banta', housewives dreamily playing roulette or a glamourous mix of designer clothes and expensive champagne quaffing- all played out with a sub-text that it is both easy, universally acceptable and safe to get into ("we give you £20 in your betting account when you place your first £10 bet"). No other 'product' with a potential for a serious addiction problem is allowed to advertise and promote itself in this way .
