October Keywords: Fuck off I’m not talking to rice Uncle Ben

uncle-benAnother month, another deluge of funny, weird, sexy and scary keywords that AdTurds readers have been typing into their search engines.

The one in the title – Fuck off I’m not talking to rice Uncle Ben – tickled me, but the following one also elicited a giggle too:

does the vw advert really say wouldn’t it be nice if we were rover?

It isn’t, of course, but the idea of it amused me. I doubt if any car manufacturer in the last 20 years would envy Rover, but the notion of VW putting subliminal messages into its ads, such peculiar ones at that, is an intriguing one.

Elsewhere the guy on the far left of the Halifax choir is upsetting readers – several readers have been upset by him. I’ve not seen him yet, but I imagine there’s already a Facebook page that exists simply to disparage him. He’ll probably be making an appearance on here soon, as I suspect I’m going to loathe Halifax’s new ads even more than the old ones in the long run.

Paul Whitehouse, Stephen Merchant, Cheryl Baker and Louise Rednknapp were in the firing line this month – I particularly liked ‘freddie flintoff morrisons fucking idiot’ though.

Brands-wise it’s all about Halifax, Barclays, Go Compare, Confused.com, Wonga, Haribo, Colmans, Gillette and Eurostar to name a few.

Already the shortlist for the worst adverts of 2011 article is forming. And what a shitty shortlist it’s shaping up to be.

September 2011 keywords: Can Paul Whitehouse tapdance?

paul whitehouse advert

For the record I doubt very much that Paul Whitehouse learned to tapdance for the sake of a five-second spot in a baffling insurance advert – but who knows eh?

If Aviva’s intention with its series of unloved Paul Whitehouse adverts has been to encourage lots of bemused viewers trying to ascertain the twinkle-toed abilities of everyone’s favourite cockney comic then it’s certainly succeeded.

14 people typed the exact phrase ‘can Paul Whitehouse tapdance’ into their search engines and navigated to AdTurds last month – and there were plenty more besides. Perhaps a more valuable question may have been ‘what does Avivia do again?’ because, for the life of me, I can’t work it out from their ads.

What else caught my eye among the AdTurds Google Analytics keyword data this month? Well, ‘complain about gocompare advert psychological damage’ had a certain ring to it. Could we ever see an advertiser sued for just being incredibly bleeding annoying? I’d like to think so – the streets of Soho would be lined with flattened creatives by lunchtime.

BMW’s apparently-pulled Lund brothers advert has taken a hell of a lot of stick – I hope the Lunds thought their 12-month loans were worth it.

Elsewhere, someone appears to be of the opinion that the new Haribo advert – sample lyric: “Oh so smooth; love them soft; squidgy, squidy baby!” – is plagiarising John Lennon. This might, on the face of it, seem unlikely – at least to anyone who hasn’t heard Double Fantasy.

The Toyota ‘gadget master’ ad seems to be universally disliked. Despite the fact that I think it’s fairly odd – and very niche – I don’t mind it, and at least Toyota is trying to lower its target demographic from somewhere around the late-50s at last.

Elsewhere it’s the usual roll call of bewilderment, irritation and lust. Who’d have thought Cheryl Baker would have so many admiring fans? Has an advert every inspired such a gamut of negative emotions as the current Haribo effort? Why do so many people have it in for Louise Redknapp?

Tune in next month….
