Received an email from the Ads Standards Board, which made me laugh.
It featured a complaint against a women's sanitary product ad.
Part of the complaint was: "The inference is that female leakage smells like fish."
Made me laugh.
For your reference, here are the findings on that complaint:

Anyway, what are the ads you do and don't like?

Gotta Getta Gutter
Must've been dirt cheap.
Favourite bit: 0.23-0.25.
The "talent" isn't even looking at the camera.
How that made the final cut...
So bad it's good...

Every time they come on, I just wanna...
PUNCH GEORGE KAPINIARIS IN THE FACE!!!
Especially the burger one - "three second rule"
Ad agency KWP! has called these ads "iconic".
Possibly the most abused word in the English language.

Some of the first ones were good, but now a perfect example of a good concept flogged to death

Yeah the main guy from those GGG ads is appalling. Give him some acting lessons and tell him to ease up on the hands.
Supposedly the girl on those Sportsbet ads is actually american "Jaimee Rogers here...", the aussie accent does sound a bit OTT.
I don't mind that Carlton Draught ad that ends with that silly looking young guy with the blond fringe, moe and stupid grin. Always cracks me up everytime. I thought they just made some young guy look idiotic for that ad but he looked exactly the same in a KFC ad I saw suring the summer too.

Funny that he got booted off the tram after a Black Caviar race because he wouldn't fork out for a ticket from Morphetville to Glenelg.
SA Quality Home Improvements, the boss and family and said above. I hate that one.

KFC and AAMI are notorious for shocking ads. Also tiring of the Tom Waterhouse ads that seem to be on pretty often.
