New Fiat 500 advert song line "Let's Marvin Gaye and Get it On" what the hell does that even mean?

Put slow romantic music on, light some candles and channel catholic rabbits until one of you give up.

If they are aiming at the Fiat 500 demographic (straight women and gay men) it's not going to work for everybody.

Adverts for insurance & pensions aimed at older people offering a free ballpoint pen and they can keep it even if they cancel their application.

Do the elderly covet ballpoint pens?

Same. Fecking Emotional blackmail. Same with all the other televised charity drives, begging people to give money so they feel better about themselves.

I give to charities I deem worthy/local at random points during the year, not because I see a picture of some random african child pulling water out of a well....

similarly, cancer adverts with a small child actor shuffling solemnly down a dimly lit hospital corridor with her drip, your £4 per month could save her.

2 adverts later she's bouncing around a french playground tucking into a Petit Filous yoghurt.

That really does have to be the crappiest name for a car ever. And that's including all the utterly stupid ones Japanese car makers have ever come up with.

I loved the CAR Magazine GBU some up for the original Duster: 'Duster to dust, ashes to ashes, quick someone pass us the matches'
