Out in the blogs they're trying hard to be offended by That Bloody Ad. Me? I like it. I haven't seen it, mind, but that won't stop me jumping to the conclusion it will be every bit as good as 99% of all the other advertisements on television.
The other 1% involves "shampoo science", a concept that has always eluded me.
What's the matter, did you get kicked out of the Ponds Institute or something?

Yeah! Give it a go! Without adverts you wouldn't get all those escapist yankee TV shows. All those doctors lawyers and molls on the loose.
Wake up to yourself, how else can people spice up their worthless boring lives?
What do you want them to do, start thinking?
You bloody COMMUNIST!

Z: How d'you know? They caught me using Solvol.
RH: I love those "escapist yankee TV shows".

Shampoo Science?
Isn't that 'All hair is dead. Use our stuff to make it seem less dead'
Posted by: DB | 25 February 2006 at 15:24
I reckon "shampoo science" is just a load of soft soap. But I'm not gonna get caught up in splitting hairs over this issue.

DB: What? Like nail polish? You've stumbled on the new Two-in-One.

More than 'accomplished'.
I knew you would blow the rest outta the water. I thank you and Miss Jess will thank you.

Haven't seen ad, but think it's a lot of hoopla about nothing really.
Bloody oath and all that.

Shampoo *is* science.
Didn't you know that 83% of users *saw* a difference!!
Just because it is objective doesn't mean it ain't science.

Is "that bloody ad" that nauseous NAB Cup effort featuring Nick Ree-volt?
Posted by: carneagles | 27 February 2006 at 00:59
Yeah they don't show shampoo ads on Fox Sports or Fox Footy Channel, so there's Buckley's chance I'll see it. What's all the noise about?
Posted by: Scott Wickstein | 27 February 2006 at 14:42
Nothing - just another glossy ad. It looks very much like the type of ad you see on aeroplanes.

CAAAAARN THE DEMONS!
Which means you did your job well. Indeed, I DO thank you for helping me make my choice. Now, do we Demons fans have any particular clubs we consider rivals? Who do I need to punch?
Posted by: Jess | 28 February 2006 at 21:24
Don't be selective, Jess. There are 15 other clubs whose supporters need punching, so fill yer boots.
