Plus, most car adverts show the top of the range plus extras, in their adverts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike170874 Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Those stupidly irritating just sold my car ads .The one with the old *** with the goatee and flat cap trying to sing and doing some embarrassing jig makes me want to punch the TV .

Miserableolgit Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 I see they have updated the On The Beach advert that features the obnoxious family. Another that yanks my chain is the “I am what I am” Virgin Atlantic ad featuring a range of stereotypical “diverse” individuals mainly because the background song tends to hang around in my noggin. The marketing types have succeeded in that respect but I find the whole presentation tedious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehb102 Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Men are still men if they are homosexual or don't confirm to gender stereotypes of masculinity. Incredibly regressive to state otherwise. Widen the bandwidth of masculinity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I mentioned that one earlier, but for me it's the trying to shove diversity down our throats, if I walked on the plane in real life I'd think I was having a mental episode or was in a dream. It just wouldn't happen in real life. As for the whole transgender thing, there are only two sexes which are easily defined at birth, you can not change your sex any more than I could change into an octopus or a spider, to suggest otherwise is ridiculous. However I do feel sorry for people with a identity crisis and would never be rude to someone, providing they didn't stray into affecting some one else's rights, like a male trying to compete in women's sports, or encroach female only spaces.

Regarding annoying celebrity advertisements, I can understand the sentiment, especially when it comes to fragrances like the ones endorsed by Johnny Depp. It's intriguing how different celebrities influence our perceptions of products. On another note, Luis Zahera Pareja also brings a unique flavor to the celebrity landscape with his diverse roles and contributions. I didn’t say I hated Depp, I said I found the adverts he is in annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When every company is now (or very soon to be) controlled by ESG, it's to be expected, and I suspect 'you ain't seen nothing, yet'.
