That advert for that new Peugeot coupe thing.The one with the seductive-looking woman driving it, then parking up and kissing a bloke.
How is that supposed to make me want to buy the car? It doesn't tell me anything I need to know - how much it is, how fast it goes, how good the fuel economy is. "Oh, buy this car and you'll get to kiss a bloke", it says. Except you won't - you'll break down halfway there because it's French.
Exactly what sort of person is it aimed at? Has anyone bought one after seeing the ad?
What else? The air freshener ads, that's what. "But it's not wasteful! Because it won't go off for another half an hour..." they croon. Personally, I can't say I give a fuck. For that matter, you shouldn't even need an air freshener unless your house smells of dog piss.
One more - those damned celebrity magazine adverts. "What's going on this week in the world of Katie Price? Did Janet Jackson kiss Elisha Cuthbert's arse? Did she? DID SHE?"
I don't care. Nobody I know cares. I have more important things to care about, like real life. You sad bastards.
