You'd have to be absolutely desperate to get sexual pleasure from shampoo.

The screaming lady and the stupid "The experience just got more intense" is completely stupid.

Yeh but don't the old couple look more like brother and sister:Yikes:

Although that sounds like the sans vocals version with remade copy of the original song. I don't think this was the final version they used - they used the original song (for anyone wanting to know - it was "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy" by the Tams) in the advert I saw on TV.

Another advert I hate at the moment (apart from the ringtone ones; WTF is this eraser one all about? :confused: ) has got to be the new Sainsbury's one with the animated till receipt. It really gets on my tits and makes me want to hurl something large and heavy in the direction of my TV set. Aaargh!!!

I don't know whether it's the fact that it talks in rhyme, or the cheesy soundtrack with builder chiselling away in the background and people sticking their thumbs up singing "Little Bill". Probably all three, I suspect. :disturbd: ;)

Annoying yes but it's better than having an advert featuring a stupid haired, fish-lipped, fat-tongued mockney on a scooter bleating on about "Thainsburrieth" :grind:
