Precisely which advert persuaded them not to go on the offensive? The one that never seems to be off our screens is Go Compare and that's enough to drive anyone to a murderous rampage.million voices wrote:sturfaq - the tv was already on they just noticed the advert whilst passing.

No The opera singer from Go Compare should definitely be fed to the giant ants. I
Can't you complain to to the Advertising Standards Authority - "Protest and Survive"
It is The Protect And Survive ads from the 70s that been so beneficial in countering giant ant plague. But then the 70s is a jolly good decade.
But on the subject of the Go Compare Advert - who is the woman with the bazooka (not as a euphemism for tits but as in panzerfaust) who takes her ski mask off. Am I meant to know her?

Sue Barker - but I can't see the link between the two, not that there has to be.

My prediction: it'll be a teaser for a new campaign featuring La Barker.

Ah, she's taken out the annoying tenor so that she can have his job. She'll probably get a peerage for services to the country.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.
You're just an ecological disaster area you are. "Those unspeakably rare birds are too noisy - where's me gun?

I loves butterflies - they do no wrong, just flutter around looking real pretty - which is purpose enough for me.stufarq wrote: You're just an ecological disaster area you are.

I'm just like any honest human being - there are things I simply don't like or agree with - frogs, birds and ants being quite high on the list as are celery and beetroot.
oh, and chicory (I was forced to drink Camp coffee during my formative years )

You are a mean boy
About 10 years ago, I decided I was grown-up enough to get over my fear and loathing of the purple root vegetable. I had about 3 slices of said vegetable. About an hour later, it decided to make its upward return. And besides, anything that turns yer water an unusual colour is just wrong - plain and simple.

You don't agree with frogs? Philosophically? Morally? Or is it just a difference of opinion?Debaser wrote:[there are things I simply don't like or agree with - frogs, birds and ants being quite high on the list as are celery and beetroot.

I have discovered that while the slugs have eaten most of the leaves from my potato plants, the potatoes themselves are untouched.
And delicious.

Slugs won't eat potatoes unless they're dauphinoise. They're fussy that way. No salt though.

You should think about it before things descend into armed (well, legged - or pseudopoded in the slugs' case) conflict. With the ants on their side they vastly outnumber you and they may have chemical weapons. Your regime could easily fall and then it's only a matter of time before there's a photo of you on the front page lying prone with slime all over your face...no, hang on, that was the Peter Gabriel video...Debaser wrote:This lady's not for turning.stufarq wrote:Perhaps we should get you, the frogs and the ants sitting around a table to try and resolve matters.
