At times - I am even amazed at how completely "anal" some people can be.

When they used blurred backgrounds in chocolate ads - bad indigestion from not chewing your food properly is never an option....

I ask you!

I'm surprised no one complained about that smirnoff christmas ad showing a tuscan popping out of a cracker - encouraging bad parking.

At least it's not MG this time!! And I think I'll complain about the Mazda advert, where 3 cars leave tracks in the shape of the number 6. 666? The number of the beast (not you carzee ). Surely this advert encourages devil worship???

Quote "The complainant objected that the advertisement glamorised speed and reckless driving."

So now overtaking is categorised as "reckless driving"! Surprised the boring old fart behind this bollocks isn't advocating the return of having a man with a red flag walking in front of the car.

This is sad. As a firm Mazda supporter(although I'm a month shy of 16 years old), these low lifes come in and say something like that about a Mazda commercial.

Do they really think that people sitting at home are going "Damn I'm gonna pass the Jones's like that?" or something?

It's damn retarted.

So a Protege(323 in Europe and Austrillia among other places)is shown passing a car, big freggen deal! People pass slower cars, it's a fact of life.

What about the Porsche Boxter commercial? You know, the one with the old guy driving the old Spyder and the younger guy races up in the Boxter, not only passes him, but passes a truck first and then stays next the the Spyder for several secs before speeding off.

Makes you think.

Ohh well, Mazda did good and someone picked thier commercial apart. Dumb people these days.

This morning I did 165 in my Porsche. It was bloody GREAT.
I vote Tory.
I'm a heterosexual, married with sprog.
I like huge great seegars that make you all flemmy next day.
I think we should nuke Iraq.
I object to paying loads of tax which contributes to a social security system with which I largely find unjustifiable.
I really like the sound of the bugle at hunt.
Pheasant shooting's great fun.

And I believe in The Divine Right of Kings and Queens.

When the time comes, I will bear arms to smite the deceivers who would betray this nation.

Enough, really is enough.

I largely agree with your sentiments with a few exceptions
I did 150 in my Porsche this morning and it was also bloody great

I don't vote anymore I turn up at the polling booth and return my paper, declaring "I don't want any of those people to get in"

I hate paying loads of stealth taxes to keep idle, parasitical and largely surplus to requirements civil servants in the lap of luxury.

I would cheerfully kill anyone who thinks they have a devine right, particularly the Royal family who are clearly taking up a large chunk of the social security system funds.

I believe in telling it like it is

Don't agree with everything above, but wish more people would have the balls to say what they think.

(Maybe that's why I spend too much time reading Pistonheads)?

I reckon we'd have some helicopter on our tail probably. Shame really. Anyway I live in South Manchester and drive a little 944 S2. Maybe we could storm to the next northern PH meet in convoy.

I imagine the person that filed about the ad the complaint is the type that believes pikies should be called "travellers" and have my taxes to pay for 'set aside' land for them to squat on! - probably votes Socilaist Workers Party too.

I sped up to 150 yesterday, and it was terrific, why not anyway? and then later near home I got fed up with car in front waiting for football-pitch-sized gap in traffic to pull out of junction, so went around her nearside and pulled straight out, no wheel spins nothing, she pulled up outside my drive some minutes later complaining about my driving and how her kids were in the back blah blah blah...WHATEVERRRRR

That gets right up my nose. Last time it happened to me, I feigned suprise, exclaimed astonishment and then said "How on earth did you get out of the house? No collar on to show who you belong to? No one to supervise you and what on earth are you doing on the wrong side of the car?" She pushed off pretty sharpish.

Mmmmmm. 165... yessss. More of that please. We need more mega-speerders to help push up the average traffic speed. It's got a bit sad now, with people only wanting to do 40mph everywhere.
