The new Vauxhall advert targeting their new Crossland X at 'Pyjama Mamas' trying to normalise school mums taking their kids to school looking like they've just crawled out of bed.
Pyjama Mamas, or as they are more commonly known lazy chavs.
Bizarrely they've all had plenty of time to apply full make-up, but didn't have time to actually pull on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.Pyjama Mamas, or as they are more commonly known lazy chavs.

The virus of referring to a three figure prices as a series of digits ("now only two nine nine") appears to be spreading.
Are people really that thick that they think this is less money?
Or is it just that marketing people think they are that thick?
this also belongs in the "Things that annoy you beyond reason" thread. Are people really that thick that they think this is less money?
Or is it just that marketing people think they are that thick?
It gets even worse with "Hurry only two nine nine, Sale ends July seventeen"

Lazy chavs sticking 2 metaphorical fingers up at a section of society they would rather alienate than aspire to.Pyjama Mamas, or as they are more commonly known lazy chavs.
The worst part of the ad for me is that the disbelieving onlookers are portrayed as prudish pricks.

Not on TV (yet) but Lidl have their "back to school" ranges in their special buys this week. FFS, most schools haven't even broken up for holidays yet.
Oh my god, this really roasts my pelican. As much today as it did when I was at school, it enraged me in a different level of apoplectic rage that the 'back to school' promotions started sometimes 2 weeks before we had even broken up.But this is a wider symptom of our consumer led lifestyles, products are stocked well in advance of when they are required. As soon as back to school ends, mid september it will all be replaced with halloween stuff, and bonfire night stuff, and on October 31st it instantly becomes christmas. 8 weeks of pre festive cheer to grind us all down. Then January sales, the time of year when you can buy a box of christmas crackers, a chocolate santa and an easter egg at the same time. Then summer season when you can buy crap that falls apart by the time school holidays start and back to square one.
Anyhoo, there's an ad for Pilgrims Choice cheese that niggles my nads where you get acoustically raped by grungey music and dancing so cringe worthy it makes David Brent look cool. I can't believe the s
t that advertising agencies come up with these days, there's simply no creative talent any more. It's cheese ffs, why not use mice to advertise it?I think I crawled out of the wrong side of the spittoon this morning.

I suppose these new Vauxhall heaps will be the new Zafira so Vauxhall know what people they have to appeal to!

The Lidl ad where woman changes direction sign for the store.
She pulls up to the junction ,positioned as if she's turning right but with the left indicator going.
And sorry to the creative brains behind this ad but, don't you think that all those people desperate to get to the store would know exactly where it was.She pulls up to the junction ,positioned as if she's turning right but with the left indicator going.
No matter- treat us all like retarded retards.
Shove your weekend specials up your arse!!

Go Compare have really stepped it up with their latest one, featuring all of the characters from the previous adverts rolled into one longer stretched out version.
My car insurance renewal paperwork just got delivered.If anyone, & I mean anyone, even partly responsible for Go f
king Compare, the fking Meerkats, the parking master, or any other of those mind-bendingly st ads sees this on PH: I am not going to use your websites out of principle, even if it costs me ££££! wkers - the lot of you! 
SkySports and their ludicrous hyping of the rebranded sports channels. "Now you can have channels dedicated to your sport, even closer to you" or something like that.
All they've done is put cricket on what was SkySports1, instead of its usual place on SkySports2. Wow! One whole click on my remote! "Closer to you" indeed. Whatever minion in their offices came up with that and the manager who signed it off together with the expense of making those ads need stringing up by their balls with cheese wire. Wasting my exorbitant subscription.

The current lead pi$$boiler is the AA ad with the singing toddler.
Its the attention to detail that heaps irritation upon irritation.
Cute toddler is clearly appallingly fake lip synched to the annoying MOR American song. For some reason it reminds me of those sickly/creepy kiddie beauty paedgent things.
Dad is driving to the airport, when his check engine light comes on. When did the AA ever fix anyone's breakdown involving a check engine light? In time to make it to the airport and catch your flight?
I have a sneaking suspicion that the AA bloke's mouth is the one photoshopped onto the cute toddler.
Its some sort of record for the quantity of bull$hit crammed into 20 seconds! Grrr!
