it does work tho
I bought a book the other day after seeing an advert on the tube. It reminded me that the book was for sale and I'd wanted to read it. Yay for adverts.

But we're just having a laugh
a lot of lawyers are nice and very worthwhile human beings, we take the piss. a lot of priests do good and aren't peados, we take the piss. a lot of politicians do genuinely care and do behave with honesty and honour, we take the piss.
we're just taking the piss - please chill out, have a biscuit.

That's why I'm so glad I don't work in advertising
"K3rry - finished that advert yet"
"No - but I have re-written it into a PHP form...."

you should add
that when you got the bookshop you saw a book that looked interesting by someone you'd never heard of but you bought it anyway, so a new writer made more money to encourage them to carry on writing and eventually produce the next great British novel.
or would that be over-egging the pudding?

nope
didn't do that. I went it. Bought the book. Read most of it whilst my g/f was waiting in vodaphone trying to get her phone working. and then left it in the bog.

face it
the general public hate advertising. yes, there's all sorts of hypocrisy in that. but it's gonna take more than another ad campaign to change it.

What advertising as a whole?
All adverts? None of them make you laugh even remotely? Not even a small wry smile? Not even one ad you have seen that made you happy? Sure?
