A Q3 survey - update

I am so NOT Canadian!

Last week, I opened up a can o' worms, a Pandora's Box. When you start talking about guys in ads who drive you up the wall, well, people respond.

First, here are a couple that I can't believe I missed:

  • Those Walmart guys (tubby fabric softener fella and boring farfalle pasta sauce guy)
  • The Alexander Keith's Scottish dink
  • Any Scottish guy for that matter
  • The guy who won't let his dad or his son eat his breakfast cereal

Now here are some that came in from the Pigdump faithful:

  • "The guy who likes to eat his fries naked. And he was in Glossette raisins commercial which ran in movie theatres. And currently he's flexing his creepy back muscles in a A5-35 (read:BenGay) commercial."
  • "I really hate the Wendy's guy, although I honestly believe that's the reaction they're looking for...

    So I have 3 comments about voices. That baby thing sounds like it's talking through a cross between Stephen Hawking's computer, and Ned's voice box on South Park. Then there's the Ikea ad. I don't think it's nearly as bad as the Idomo guy who looks a bit like ZZTop, and sounds like Kermit the Frog.

    And the Canadian Tire people KNOW they're clowns. They appeared as themselves on Air Farce for Pete's sake!

    What about your toothbrush friend? And the Michelin Man who looks as though he's been doing the Atkins diet, or is the the Subway diet? Oh my God! What ever happened to Jared?!"

  • "Has got to be the new GM Dial In To Win ad with all the 'sports heroes' holding the CGI phone up above their head. Totally annoying. A definite reason for the 'mute' button."
  • "Hey, how about that goofy CIBC guy walking down the street like the pied piper of banking or something. Just try strolling down the street talking about savings accounts and see how many people swarm around you!"

This might go on forever. How's that for Top Quality Pigdump response though!

Thanks and good luck
