Here is a new advert that is pissing me off:
The Strongbow one where the blokes are carrying a sofa up 25 sets of stairs to some old granny.
Apart from being really corny and making you want to puke, have a look at the sofa as they carry it up the stairwell....you can see through the bubble wrap and it has blue stripes on it. When the old granny phones them in the pub to complain, it has red stripes. Now normally you would not even bother to notice, but as the basic subject of the ad is about whether the sofa is plain or stripy it tends to make you focus on what they are carrying.
You would think that the amount of money they pay for advertising something as simple as maintaining the colour would not be too much out of the budget. Unless of course it is done on purpose to get the advertising in to your ed like.
Anyway......it pisses me off.
