..I think it's for Maltesers, where there's two women in an office who are bored and one jumps up, walks to the window in the office and flashes her boobs at a passing bloke. The bloke gets a shock, drops his papers, falls over and scurries off, she sits down smugly.
Now...... if the roles were reversed, would they dare even consider making the advert...?

p.s.....and the wife pointed this out, why are 99% of blokes in adverts depicted as complete idiots, while the women are always depicted as wise and understanding...?

this started aboyut 8=10 years ago, a "man's" role dipicted as the thick subsrvient one by advertisers , I assume to sell more stuff to the thicko women who fall for it,.....as they hold a large wedge of the houshold income, and blokes are not so stupid to fall for it, it's like the old salesmen selling cars by showing the women all the super features such as driver and passengers personal sun blind "MIRRORS", for doing make up on the way to work.....

It's called positive discrimination and it stinks.

Put it this way, if it wasn't for women, there wouldn't be Robbie Williams.

I rest my case. :roll: :roll:

The Aero advert's quite clever though - something I picked up on for possibly the first time in an ad - the male voiceover at the end takes the piss, so it keeps men in tact slightly (although I guess it's only so they can excuse a genuinely over-the-top selling strategy)

Is anyone swayed much by adverts at all, though? Even if an ad catches your eye you usually can't remember what it's an advert for.

Just another parallel world where people kid themselves they're selling things. Like politicians kid themselves they're running the country and pop singers kid themselves they really have talent and psychiatrists kid themselves they're curing mental illness and ..er ..other things

WHOA...you're making the understandable error of assuming everyone can see right through this crap ... there's an awful lot of thick as bulls lugs people out there who will believe anything......why else would we get 'programmes' like Big Brother and all the other celeb fuelled dross on the box?

when these "America's next top model" -type shows are on, the ads are for ringtones, ocean finance etc. When you watch National Geographic, there's ads for business insurance, new technology for businesses and things like that. Market research has been refined to the point of getting maximum benefit, by only advertising on channels which the likely "customers" are watching.

methadone ads.
They're branching out though, "Bazza's Smack Emporium" on Eastbourne Road has just been filmed I believe, and is due its first airing next week.

And for a lovely couple of seconds he allowed any squirming ad execs in his audience to think he was kidding:

"No, but seriously............................. kill yourselves" rolfl


He did, 'I know what you're thinking, Bill's going for that reverse psycholgy dollar right there, I am not doing that you sons of bitches. Kill yourselves.'

Ever get to see him Mr John??

I saw him at the Forge in Sheffield the year before he died. Fantastic. He'd just given up smoking and lost half his act!! Made up for it though with some wonderful 'goat boy' material. :wink:
