It's hard not to laugh at all the terrible acting skills on display.


My Facebook memories today are of last year's 'Lockdown' - one post was that 7 had rolling coverage all day/evening...except for Home and Away.

Priorities :D

It's iconic at my work place.

Every time our receptionist makes her morning coffee I walk out of my office with my headphones on and ask her loudly "How are those reports coming along?"

Then voices appear from various sections of the office asking about ham and suggesting sushi.

Most ads nowdays are cringeworthy.

No one has any imagination anymore (and most stuff is offensive to someone as well)

I was just saying to my brother the other day, is there an add in the last 20 years that still sticks with you to this day.

Probably not

Catchy slogans were out a long time ago and nowdays we just see a bunch of dancing nongs in every ad.

It's crap.

Anyone 50 plus will never forget the TAB ad from nearly 40 years ago.

Likewise, always makes me laugh, along with Frank Walker's work on the radio.

I've gotta select my audience better when I go to the pub.

As I hand the chick at the bar my card she always asks "Would you like a tab?"

"Na, just a gin will be fine" I reply

The older generation have a little laugh, she just looks at me with a dazed look.

Surely this ad would get a podium finish?

Does anyone know what's going on here? I don't get it...

Politicians kissing babies for good luck,
TV preachers sell salvation for a buck.
You don't need no golden cross to tell you wrong from right,
The world's worst murderers were those who saw the light.
