Not like im going to buy the product anyway, but anti-wrinkle creams where they use some 16 year old model annoy the hell out of me. I invariably end up screaming at the television “Of course she doesn’t have any wrinkles, she hasn’t left school yet”
Of course, if they can provide documentation that the mdoels in questions are actually 63, then I will recant.
Thing is, the rest of the ad doesn’t make any sense at all either - they all take a sip from their pints - the lager drinkers emit a gasp of refreshment, the Strongbow drinker emits a gasp of refreshment that turns into a wall of white noise that lasts apparently for some extended duration, causing him to stand, paralysed, missing all the fun of the footy match on the pub TV, missing the banter of his chums - he’s just standing there, frozen, insensate, hissing, for what’s supposed to be, I dunno - half an hour? an hour? How is this meant to make me want the product?
Has anyone mentioned TJ Maxx’s latest ads? They feature a woman standing up and drawing attention to herself with the expectation that she’s going to say something the other people around will like, and then she goes on to rave about the fabulous outfit she got. One has a woman at a wedding, another a flight attendant, and another woman who tells a group of kids she’s going to tell them a story. No, thanks.
