Yeah someone had to do this.

This decade's had some HORRIBLE ad campaigns. My least favorite is "I'm Lovin' It" with McDonalds.

I'm curious as to which campaigns you hated! Is it the Cavemen from Geiko?! Is it the gecko!?!?!?! Maybe you just hate those stupid Truth commercials!

So yeah. What's your least favorite.

Also one of my favorites is the Ugoff commercials. Dis them and die! >=^D

A british army recruitment ad, they played it like twice and never again. It involved a man trying to get inside a club using either his "leadership", "stamina", or two other things I can't remember (the idea being these are all army traits or some !@#$%). I only ever saw the leadership and stamina ads.

Leadership involved someone telling him to get everyone to shout his name so they let him in, followed by the line "Use your leadership"...
Stamina involved someone telling him to run home and get changed into something more "acceptable" for a club (clearly the man was too stupid to think of this one himself).

The man did whichever one of these was picked, got in the club...then a random woman appeared out of nowhere, told the audience "I like how you think", followed by what essentially translated to "join the army and impress your friends"...

so, yeah -_-

CRUNCH! I'll add it to the heap! Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 1314	These. Every time I drive by one of these billboards I rage. What the hell is that !@#$%? I always get pissed off when advertizers use sex appeal to sell their product instead of their actual product, but this one was the worst. I mean, what the hell is this? Is it supposed to be some sort of lesbian !@#$%? Oh, yeah, Remy Martin has a secret magical alchohol that makes dumb sluts at parties randomly pull out chains (wtf) and do BDSM in front of you. What the !@#$%. Logged
