    Was horrified by that advert this afternoon as well, if only for the fact that my 2 year old son thought the yellow fluffy bird was cute! :mad:

    See its brainwashing young children ergo it is evil. Kill it. C'mon Chant with me.

    KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT! KILL IT!

    Picture a frog (or now a bird), blathering this noise, on telly, at least twice every adbreak.

    Its horrible!

    It's really sad if they said "What's not working about this ad?" and thought it was the character.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,208 ✭✭✭✭aidan_walsh


    Yeah, but given that the sound is also the product they weren't going to drop that, were they ;)

    I disagree....the sad thing is all the 14yr old single mothers waisting there dole money on credit to buy these ring tones....if the adds didn't work they wouldn't be able to buy a TV channell.....MTV :mad:

    1. Download the advert, or record it from the telly. Just the audio is fine.
    2. Load it onto an MP3 player with a repeat function.
    3. Rent a large van.
    4. Rent a generator.
    5. Rent some large amplifiers and speakers. Bigger the better.
    6. Put 2, 4 and 5 in 3.
    7. Find out...
      1. ...the name of the company responsible (from the ad);
      2. ...where the company's office is (from the CRO); and
      3. ...where the owner's house is (more difficult, but not impossible).
    8. Reverse 3 up to 7.2.
    9. Start 4.
    10. Turn on 5. Turn up 5. All the way now.
    11. Turn on 2.
    12. Set the ad to loop.
    13. Slouch against 3 and smirk.
    The guards'll turn up after a while to hunt ye out of it, but as long as ye don't argue with them or make a fuss, it's quite likely they'll be tolerant when they realise what's going on, if not jovial. When ye are hunted out of it, go to 7.3, he's probably a lazy bastard slavedriver, he'll either be there or the golf club. Or you might get the wife, who'll tear him a new one when he comes home. If he's in another district you'd probably get away with one more, perhaps Sky's office in Dublin.

    Make sure you tip off the press beforehand, you'll find email addresses and telephone numbers on all their websites. Don't be too explicit about what's going to happen, just say that the "People's Front of Sanity are taking action against Crazy Frog" or something, together with a time and a location.

    C'mon now, someone step up to the plate and take charge. Fifty quid towards the effort here. Got it in me hand.

    I must admit I much prefer this ad to the frog one. It still annoys the hell out me but I prefer to listen to this.

    true the bird is mildy less annoying but they anger me when i hear them 2-3 times in a single ad break or every second ad, actually ive seen the two combined in one ad aswell
