Cuffed my 17 year old son for that this morning. Although substitute carrots for carrot sticks and llamas for reindeer. Yes we have some weird pets.McDonald's and their "can we get a bag of carrot sticks for the Reindeer"

The McDonalds one where they take a bus of randoms to a meat processing factory to check it's all beef.

stupid fking advert. At least the Aldi/Lidl (or whoever it is) version of the 'educating the snobs' concept looks vaguely plausible/genuine. There is no point to the campaign if you make it into a cartoon type thing. You may as well have a cartoon cow grinning and wearing a pretty bonnet as it gets minced back to front. To add insult to injury the woman holding up the 'beef' seems to have hold of what look like fairly expensive joints of meat, when we all know that food processing industry definition of beef is, shall we say, a little broader. cuprabob said:
Now they are playing the Sainsbury's Xmas advert on the radio....
I heard that this morning, I assumed it was a really terrible local advert for something until they said Sainsburys at the end. Someone better get fired for making something that bad. I've not yet seen the TV advert.I know we're in the run up to Christmas now, and I really don't mean this to sound bad, but fk me how many charity adverts are currently running. Yesterday on CBS every single advert on one break was nothing but various different charity adverts back to back.
It's not just the volume but also the frequency of how often some of the charities have got theirs showing. Judging by how much saturation there is, does the advertising outlay even equal what donations come in?

Foxy Bingo with Heather Graham. Can she really be that stuffed for work she has to advertise that st?
Any gambling/bingo adverts are risible, the one with the security guard saying he musnt grumble, tragic.Jackpot Joy with Paddy McGuiness and Barbara WIndsor, all seemed to be aimed at halfwits.
Just watching NCIS on C5 and one ad break was filled with a couple of Iceland adverts featuring home (or YouTube) videos of children unwrapping presents but their voices were overdubbed by an adult and various frozen Iceland food products were CGI'd in place of a toy.
Genuinely weird WTF moment - especially for the person in their ad department that thought it up.
