Genuinely makes me want to rip my eyes out and ears off every time it comes on. “CAD Dra’ains” is the new PIN number. Weren't Factory Direct a staple advert on NECR? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be thinking of Strathbogie Saw Centre in Huntly who used to promote their wares on NECR with Doric poetry. It was cringeworthy but at least they'd put some creativity into it which is more that can be said for Factory Direct. I could imagine their poetry had a certain appeal for the type of person who would be interested in purchasing a specialist saw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get non-stop commercials for incredibly shite mobile game money sinks. Better than a few years ago, when I kept getting ten-minute infomercials for American evangelical Christian shysters. Presumably they were targeting the lucrative middle-aged loser nihilist market. 1 hour ago, Northboy said: I cringed at an Amazon advert last night where a van driver gave his job title as 'Delivery Associate'. Incredibly patronising. People generally end up with those kind of wanky job titles when someone in management has decided it'll keep the thicko proles happy in lieu of better wages/conditions. There was some talk a while back about changing our drivers' job title to something like 'Mobility Managers'. They mocked it enough that the idea was dropped. Still on the same shitty pay, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, get employees to chip in with a WFH video and at least one clip has to have something 'whacky' going on in the background. Take a running f**k at yourselves, you fucked up in 2008 we don't need your faux kindness in 2020. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swiftyswifty swifty Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The ALDI advert with the twat Dad going “Yum, Yum, Yum, Yum” at the thought of a pasta bake. He’s well deserving of a swift punch to the tits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to deal with them once as they pursued an "accident" case against my work on behalf of an utter fuckwit who couldn't get his story straight until the third attempt. He supposedly slipped on ice while delivering at the weekend when the place wasn't open. They just try to wear you down and get you to pay out a few thousand quid to get them off your back. Utter scum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
