You know, Porksword
 , I tried to "put the kettle on" during an ad once, but I just couldn't get it over my head. 
What would you suggest?

Do I think I could kick that  dog into next week??
Oooooooohhhh yes!!! It's the idea of a phrase being repeated, gradually getting louder and louder that gets to me. It's like drip torture, and to think there are some people who think this approach to pursuading you to part with money is funny. |

Yeah thanks for that, Jim. Just what I need! 
Another is that bloody Sheilas Wheels car insurence advert. If I ever see that again, my neighbiour is likely to be hit by a large low flying Philipps, colour TV..

I'm not a big fan of commercials, a few of them are OK, but most of them are stupid, idiotic, and pointless. I guess what I really don't like about some is that the content of the commercial has nothing to do with what is being advertised.

It depends on the advert. I love the Jackie Chan Visa Mastercard advertisment. You know, the one that promotes the Beijing Olympics.

Back to Safestyle Windows, though, when you look at their various marketing campaigns:
 
And of course... 
It is so obvious they are aiming at the higher echelons as regards their marketing demographic... so where do they go wrong???

None on the list. I shout at the telly.
Especially that 'Picture' loans advert. 'You can REALLY talk to those people at Picture...'
If those were real people they really should get a life and here's anoth...
