Ambulance chasers on telly are so funny.

One company is telling us a serious accident is different from a minor accident. Yes. That's because one is *minor* and one is *serious*. How thick (or greedy) do they think we are!?

There is only one thing worse than being Gosho, and that is not being Gosho

Never underestimate the stupidity of advertising copywriters or the depths they'll plumb*. It's one of the main reasons I avoid listening to commercial radio here, but every now and again I do and it makes me cringe.

*Not all copywriters. Some are actually very good, and we've all got favourite ads (good or bad) that we'd love to see/hear again. I recently downloaded a few recordings of old Kenny Everett shows from early 70s Capitol Radio hoping to hear the voice of Freddy Barrett (Barrett's, Barrett's, come to Barrett's, Barrett's liquor mart, yeeeeeaaaahhhhh), but I guess he didn't get going until the 80s smiley - sadface

They are dumbing down because people are lazier (two times more germs killed etc) and can't be bothered to think. If I see the ad again I'll quote them, even J noticed it was stupid!
