Adverts that irritate and entertain

[bilky asko]

Anyone seen the Fosters ad on TV recently? Didn't it originally have a guy tell his brother in law the drink was an obscure tipple called Voodoo Jazzhands? They seem to have censored it, as now he says Voodoo Jazzha- and gets cut off.

This advert is back, and were it not for this post I'd have sworn it was older than two years old.

That was the previous time the advert was brought back - it seems to date back to at least 2019.

Incidentally, it appears Black Lodge Brewery have created a Voodoo Jazz Hat beer in reference to the ad.

Only one advert has entertained me, and it is the "from confusion to clarity" advert from Confused.com.

However, if we're talking about current ads, Daisy by Marc Jacobs has my vote. That's a specific month though, so if we're going to other levels...



What makes them think including a tarantula was a good idea? For people with arachnophobia, just imagine holding that advert in their face and looping that bit. I guarantee you, I would never. Honestly just off-putting.

And its business version...



How does throwing a computer into the water save it? That's like throwing a guy out the window and then the window dissappears and he falls into lava. Do the marketing team know practicality?

That stupid Lynx advert with the dog never ceases to make me snort with laughter.
