Still... I reckon that’s where a lot of advert ideas are born.

Ourtime over 50s dating ad on Tv
A nice lady & a total retard, poking out his tongue at art gallery
Not a great catch !
He's doing an imitation of the painting they're looking at which also has it's tongue out & one arm raised, so I don't see the issue myself!?!
They always seem to feature passable attractive fifty plus women paired off with freaky men. It's saying no matter how weird you are there's a good looking woman out there for you chaps. Just send us the money...

OMG! That moronic EE Air Traffic Control ad!

No, just cos you have attached one metric ton of monitors to a PC, does not make your council living room an ATC tower.

No, what you are doing is not any kind of test for broadband cos you are effectively doing nothing more demanding than a zoom call.

No, that chuff sat with the headset on is not an ATC.

Said chuff is not even speaking proper ATC lingo. "Runway 23 is available" Eh? Are they cleared to land or wot???

"I can't believe we landed a plane!!" Reason for that love, is you didnt. A plane (potentially it is a diff make to the one the crew are sat in) rocked up at a toy airport and maybe either a) landed themselves or b) dealt with the local real ATC as per normal. Does Cambridge have ATC or is it like one of them fields in the states where you do ATC by looking out of the window. Really carefully.

Thankyou PH for the outlet. If I articulate these points to my partner once more, she is going to go postal with a claw hammer. Also apologies if it has already featured in this thread.

RSPCA is still running peak covid, apparently covid is having a huge impact on their ability to rescue and care for animals, but they don't explain how or why?

Vent away. That advert is one big lie, swallowed up by the stupid. Along with the remote control shaving up a mountain bks.

Yes, the remote shaving. How does the barber get a feel for how close the blade is to the guy’s skin. I’ve no doubt you can remote operate a robotic arm, but unless you can properly feel the resistance of blade on skin you could just as easily slice his his neck in half as you could miss by six inches.

It must be really depressing watching ITV3/ITV4 during the day, you turn on to watch something like Minder/The Professionals etc, maybe reliving some favourites from younger days only for the adverts to come on and say one of the following:

You’re dying soon, leave some money to your loved ones so they can pay your funeral.
Don’t’ forget you’re definitely gonna die soon, so before you croak please take out an equity release plan and invite a stranger to your home so they can convince you they are doing you a favour.
Seriously! You are going to die soon, get a cremation plan and we’ll send you a free body bag
Look, come on, we’ve told you, you’re going to die you MUST listen now, not listening? Here is a celebrity you may remember from Countdown to tell you how important it is, surely you’re going to listen now, don’t make us wheel out Michael Parkinson!
Ok, our figures show you’ve done none of the above (we can tell!) so here are some adverts about people and animals who are dying, lets see if you’ll help them if not yourself.

Yes, miserable stuff. I wonder if health in care homes would improve if they didn’t stick the inmates in front of TV like this all day.

I’d like to think so. Or, put on adverts that were around when the shows were originally aired (within reason).

By the time you've promised £3 per month to the donkeys, the blind children, the cats' home, and cancer research plus many others, you're on the point of starving through lack of money.

Watching all the classic old programmes, where sadly a lot of the actors have now passed on... we are their target audience.

NB: Yarp... all those ‘give us your money’ ads get on my nerves.
If you want to help... just donate to your local centres / sanctuaries etc.
At least you know where your money is going.

With the automatic consent for them to contact you to try to bleed more money from you ( which is exactly what they do) so they get **** all from me.
