You seem like you will be a fast learner though. All the regulars pretty much steer clear of Australian Football unless theres a socceroos game on or a very appealing thread. Its generally just ethnic rivalry shit and sour grapes in there so we dont miss much.

WGMG: Ads. Life would be so much better without ads on TV.

The most annoying ad has to be that one for Foxtel. The "Happy EOFYS" (End Of Financial Year Sale) song gets stuck in my head all the time!

That's a highly successful and incredibly annoying add. I'd better put on some seether before it gets stuck in my head.

Watching Letterman...he interviewed Emma Watson. She got caught wearing see-through panties. Apparently she doesn't shave.

The only ad I like is that smoking ad. Its the most downer ad ever. The song is like 'Everybody knows', I cant remember. I like that fact that theres no hidden agendas or sleazy con-men behind it trying to make money.

I reckon there are three kinds of marketing guys.

The annoying marketing guy who comes up with the foxtel/G.O.G.G.O./go to bed jessica ads

The weird unemployed marketing guy that came up with the Tooheys Extra Dry ad where they grow the beer in a weird hair/corn field thing

And my favourite marketing guy who does all the carlton draught/hahn premium light ads

The one with the kid crying? It's so harsh. It's great.

I love the Carlsberg one personally.

Love the old Heineken (I think) ad's, where the guy would be reaching into the barrel of ice water, searching for a Heineken, and would either find it, and join all his other mates with frozen hands, or find it, and drop it coz he was shaking so much.

My mate can do the eyebrow thing too. It's very weird. He can only do it for like 20 seconds though before he starts getting face cramps.

Re the Cadbury's ad. I'm not sure if the original one is Hamish Blake... I know that Hamish does a recreation of the Cadbury's ad..

Here is a link to it: (I don't know how to post video)

WGMG is the damn kids these days. Three times last night i got asked if i was selling pills, what the fuck is that. Had the funniest conversation with this smoking hot chick when i was taking the piss trying to convince her i was selling. And then this kid who looked about 14 and was wearing purple jeans came up to me and my group when we were outside and asks as casual as anything if we want to buy some acid. we messed around a bit like asking how much an 1/8th of a piece of acid would cost like from flight of the conchords but still what the fuck is the wrong with these people, get it together.

WGMG: People who have absolutely NO consideration for their own hygiene or anybody else's sense of smell. Yesterday I was balancing a register before I left work, and this really smelly guy gets served on the register next to me. His stench just filled the service area, it really was horrendous. To make things worse, it lingered for about 5 minutes. It was just about eye watering stuff. Made me think, FFS, have a shower or use some deodorant.

I know someone like that. He washes his clothes but doesn't use cleaning powder :? What. The. Fuck.

WGMG: Sickness. AGAIN.

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

The best Budweiser ad is this one
[youtube]N9zxTY50NX8[/youtube]

There are also two other eally funny ones, i can't find them at the moment. One is called good dog and the other one is called wassupp. Type them into You tube next to budweiser and you'll find them. They are gold.

WGMG: iTunes Genius sidebar. It recommends songs based on songs you already have in your library. So my brother used our last money on iTunes on 21 guns by Greenday, because it reccommends it if you like Linkin park. WTF?

It's obviously not that much of a genius if it can't tell the difference between wannabe punk and rapcore.

Yeah I agree, I hate it when you come across people like that. Not meaning to sound racist but when we were in Alice a couple of days ago the mall just reeks of unwashed bodies it was foul. Theres a Big Issue dealer in Bendigo who you have to block your nose when you come into a 20 meter radius of him. I also hate those who smoke WAY too much and smell like a bonfire, we get alot of these at work when Im just filling up stock a smoker like that will walk past but leave the smoke smell lingering for a long while. I get that people are addicted to it and enjoy it but have some regard for us non smokers who have to smell you, it doesnt even apply to all smokers just the ones you have it seeped into every fibre of their clothes and skin
