    You know the sort of music I'm talking about, normally it's a female singing in a pretentious child like voice.

    Example (jump to 32 seconds into the advert):



    It's not original or interesting. Anyone can sing anything in a cute voice.

    It's time to put an end to this crap music

    I hate it when kids are used in adverts - even when they're not singing. On the radio, they always use precocious little D4 types... Billy Barry fuckwits..

    "So, I says to Duddy, 'Duddy, what's a financhul regulatur?' and Duddy says, 'that's the man who makes shure your college fund is safe'.

    Parents can be soooo stupid... everyone knows I'm going to play for Lunster when I leave school".

    Oh god, that aswell. Kids being like responsible adults. STOP IT ffs. I am not taking advice from a snot nosed little shtbag who can't tie their own shoelaces. It's not cute, it's not funny, just fk off.
