Advertising for gentlemen 2
May 11, 2005, 18:55
(For some reason it got lost first time I tried to post this...)

Latest advert for 'The Real McCoy Classics' crisps:

'Also Sprach Zarathustra' (The 2001 A Space Odyssey music) plays over a slow-motion scene of a woman dropping a cup of tea in shocked astonishment as a man (scruffy and unshaven, needless to say) ACTUALLY PUTS SOME CLOTHES INTO THE WASHING MACHINE AND TURNS IT ON!!!

The caption: 'McCoys Classics: Crisps for Gentlemen'

Harmless fun? Bit of a laugh? No, not really. Imagine the tables turned: an ad featuring a woman ACTUALLY READING A ROADMAP CORRECTLY, or ACTUALLY REWIRING A PLUG BY HERSELF!! Not funny under those circumstances. Not funny under these, either.

I am going to get this bullshit taken off the TV, and anyone who fancies having a kick with me please get involved by emailing [email protected].

Grrrrr.....


Zxi.
