Like it or love it, ads are part of the public domain and infiltrate our personal lives whether it be via the internet, tv or on the billboard at your bus stop.
Do you mind? Do ads work? Have you ever felt compelled to max out your credit card at the nearest department store/boutique?

Are there any particular brands/companies or advertising campaigns which really get to you?

I notice ads almost all the time and some are annoying as hell and blocks off stuff on the site(*clears throat* A-Source!) but some can be really good. Only time I really hate them is when they are all over a site.

then have you seen the ad for the Carlton Draught, with a bunch of guys singing 'its a big ad, very big ad..." singing in the O Fortuna tune, i thought that was hilarious. fav ad so far.

the lyrics goes:
It's a big ad.
Very big ad.
It's a big ad we're in.
It's a big ad,
My God it's big!
Can't believe how big it is!
It's a big ad!
For Carlton Draught!
It's just freak...ing HUGE!
It's a big ad.
Expensive ad!
This ad better sell some bloooooody beer!

Yeah Sayoku im a New South Welshman Smile . I havent seen that ad but someone else told me about it and how he couldnt stop laughing. Im starting to hate the apple !pod advertising campaigns. They were ok in the beginning but then came Bono....I mean dont get me wrong i like old U2, but if there ever was a case of overexposure...

Most ads dont directly make you buy stuff, they construct or extend a brand image which affects the way people consider their products and who considers them. I used to think i was immune to advertising but now im not so sure.

the i pod ads, i like the old ones better, the new ones they over do it a little for no point. (come on, they sold so many already, and everyone knows, why bother do more ads?)

I'm not a big fan of advertisments but hey it's the only way TV and this website can run like it does. What I hate though are commercials that are run that almost seem to purposely annoy you... I guess an annoying commercial is more memorable then a so-so commercial. Really though advertisements is a small price to pay for looking around on websites or watching tv.

OMG the wokstar ad, i couldnt figure out what language are they speaking in, and now im pretty sure that was just giverish.
remember there was another one of mother and daughter talking between glass in jail, then turn out the mother was just wearing a orange suit cleaning the bathroom. i liked that too.
