Debtbuster loans.

Worra lorra shit.

Have you noticed the wife who eavesdrops into the phone call her useless husband makes to the loan people? She looks like she's having an orgasm.

Cut to the operator of the loans company. Read her lips. "Yes... yes... no problem... thats fine... of course".

The husband doesn't seem to speak at all.

It makes me so angry and I don't know why.

Others?

Especially fantastic is right at the end the operator gulps nervously and for perhaps about 3 frames her face is one of absolute fear.

Via the TVU player there's a commercial often repeated on CBS for the US ISP Earthlink.

Its a married couple in their kitchen talking to the camera about the virtues of DSL.

"Perfect for 'zipping' around the internet, and 'yapping' on Voice over IP" he says. "I'm quite a 'zipper'", he continues.

"Hey, I'm a 'zipper' too" says the blonde; obviously annoyed at the 'yapper' implication.

Zipping and yapping?

Fuck off.

Long live Barry Scott,
But one question... who in their right mind cleans all their old pennies?!

Cillit Bang, cheesy but highly memorable ad campaign.

RIP Cola's 'Holidays are Coming' I shall always miss you :cry:

I do, every day.

You youngsters really don't understand what being incredibly rich is all about, do you?

She also mouths "Right, Yes! YES! RIGHT!"

Either she's having an orgasm or the customer is having an epiphany

I loved their first ad campaign, set to Children of the Revolution. Fantastic bit of film that.
Was that the one that looked amazing but made no sense what-so-ever?
