Every time I'm still a little surprised it's not some PETA Guilt trip.

I join the 'hate it' bandwagon. It always manages to annoy me when it comes on. :P

I love that advert! I don't get it but I like it all the same.

I can't believe that no-one else on PPT doesn't like the Oats and More advert either. I think it's been taken off telly now though. Thank God.

Oh, also:

All Taco Bell and Carl's Junior (I think it's called Hardee's in the east coast) ads.

Another advert I that annoys me is this THINK! Always wear a seat belt UK Advert because the son is forced into his mother due to the force of the crash and the same force forced him back down on his seat since he is wearing a seatbelt. Yet the advert says "After crushing her to death he sat back down."

The advert annoys me by claiming that the son sat back down to his own accord and not due to the force of the crash.

No it doesn't. It's meant to shock you. The statement "he sat back down" represents an everyday, ordinary action. It's meant to contrast the fact that he's just killed his mother. Sitting down is no big deal, not wearing a seat belt "is no big deal" but crushing your mother to death, is.
