Yes, thanks for the pics. I just saw the Axe ad for the first time last night on TV, LOL and like any ad, twice in one night. Took me until the second time to realize that while rolling through the tomato field, it briefly became a 3-some. LOL.

I've been using the stuff for months now, and nothing like that ever happened. Funniest part was a female wammer originally suggested to my wife that I should try the Axe, so maybe its good after all!

Axe?

Isn't that the foreign name for Lynx?

Now HERE'S a good ad:

I guess I'm just too cynical... I ALWAYS switch channels when ads come on.... I try (although it is difficult if you have SKY) to avoid watching ads.... seems like I've been missing some classics....

...although I have to say, I'd rather miss some housewife deluged in chocolate for the sake of watching hours of shit.... I just don't get it... I went to a pub quiz the other week where a whole round was dedicated to 'tunes from TV ads'.... do people really really spend their lives watching that shit? needless to say... I didn't do very well on that round...

there's more to life!!! I refuse to be a slave of the advertising execs....fuck them all!

s'cuse my lingo.... really gets me annoyed! especially when they aim ads at kids who don't know better.... oh god...I'm starting a rant.... at the risk of sounding like a fanatic... consider http://www.tvturnoff.org/aboutus.htm

just an idea.... go on... I dare you to switch off the TV for a WHOLE DAY!!! maybe watch a Splosh! DVD all day instead!!

er... sorry about the rant... guess you caught me at a bad time...

although I stand by my comment... all advertisng ppl should find a convenient cliff to throw themselves off.... especially the ones who are responsible for the 'consolidate your debts into one easy payment' ads.... leeches!

oh, god, feels like another rant.....

yeah seen the dating ad one, two people locked to gether in love going through daily life, including a clothed shower together in the ads first incarnation

i have on tape some where the grand marnier ad from late 80's early 90's

clothed woman in a bath room turns on a bath tap an it comes off in her hand, water shoots out the tap top so she trys stopping the flow by standing on it , then falls an rips off the shower attatchment and hubbie comes in and they end up soaked etc
heres some screen caps i made ages ago




there was a nice imodium plus advert a couple of months ago
a women in courts, jeans and a rain overcoat first steps in a puddle (close-up) then at end of ad puts up umberella as she walks past a canopy that dumps a load of water, the brolly in the ad is supposed to save her and does but it clear that her legs and shoes get deluged
not sure how many takes it took as her jeans are already soak for the last shot

There's an ad for Ritz crackers with Fern Britten (who I would LOVE to see get really messy... ) where she switches on a blender full of fruit(?) and gets very slightly splashed...

[Hayley]

Ah, thanks for solving a mystery! I did a Snakes and made tea during an ad break to come back to find Fern covered in fruit, and wondered what that was all about! Haven't seen the ad since. Thanks for explaining!

Lots of ads I find offensive - car ones for a start. If we want to discourage people from driving how about banning adverts for cars and making giving them away as game show prizes illegal (this is what they did with cigarettes to make them unfashionable). I speak as a driver who spends all my time in a car for work and see it purely as a utility. It's not glamorous - and the empty roads in the ads bear no resemblence to real driving. That's my rant.

Love the tap pictures. With me it's the other way round - I get pissed THEN get messy.
