Everyone knows a bloke like Micky....

[drberbatov]

God I hate that bloody shampoo advert, but does anyone have a mate who has a cunt like trait (i.e windswept and interesting hair) that bloody well annoys you?

[sproggy]

No

[Al Tha Funkee Homosapien]

Yes.

[semtex]

No.

[hencole]

no, is that you TC?

[Small Man Big Horse]

No.

[rudi]

Yes. Two.

[Rev]

I have a mate who was in a shampoo advert, if that helps.

[weekender]

No.

[ccbaxter]

Yes, until yesterday.

[rudi]

Yes, until yesterday.

Ooh, you probably know, well, knew, one of mine.

[Huzzie]

I hate Micky and I am very glad I don't know anyone like him.

I also think he looks a bit simple.

[gazzyk1ns]

I thought this was going to be about the other advert, about DVD piracy, which tries desperately to paint everyone who has ever produced a home-made DVD as a pathetic, physically and morally unheathy, scruffily dressed and smelly, middle-aged arsehole.

But it is not. Thinking about it, that's "knock-off Kev" or something similar, isn't it...

I hate the fact that these days you often have to delve through loads of poncy "fibre-putty shaping freestyle wax moulding clay restyle bedhead-look sruffplay wankfest" stuff to get to some plain gel, which is what I use, as it keeps my hair neat and inconspicuous. Obviously my hair is perfect in every way and so I am right and my hair-styling habits are unquestionable.

[Huzzie]

He's a knock off Nigel, he's a knock off nigel. <frown>

I also got those two ads mixed up. That Micky is a twat especially with his 'intellectual' hair. I'd rather date Knock Off Nigel or whatever he's called at least he lives on the edge.

I also hate that advert with the Chinese boy and girl who stick their heads in their desks and come out with messy hair looking all defiant and then smugly running off like they've made some revolutionary political statement with their hair. Since when was a hair style political?



Oh yeah.

[Huzzie]

I know what you mean Dusty but the idea is that they are in Communist China and have to be uniform.

[TC Raymond]

I know a bloke who is a real-life Nathan Barley. If anyone had the patience to sit him down and explain what a gargantuan cunt he is, he'd kill himself. I'm sure of that.

[petula dusty]

I know Huzzie but I still think it's a crap advert.

[Huzzie]

You are very right!

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

To be fair to Adolf, that little 'tache rounds off his face quite nicely.

[the ruffian on the stair]

You are very right!

An alcoholic friend (well he used to be a friend) had a heroin addict called Mickey stay with him in order to half his rent which would give him more beer money. Of course Mickey never paid any rent and robbed the flat of television, stereo and alcohol: he even took things like the tv aerial and the door handles.

Also: he'll get you some amazing anniversary presents. "Why Nigel, it's the latest cinema releases on DVD! I never knew you cared!"

[falafel]

I haven't bought a pirated DVD in years, but Knock Off Nigel makes me really want to. Now that's bad advertising. What the ad actually says is that people who condemn pirating are a bunch of sanctimonious bastards with whom who you most certainly wouldn't want to be associated.

[Goldentony]

That Knock Off Nigel thing is the stupidest fucking thing i've seen in years. Do they really think they'll convince anyone who has ever bought a pirated DVD or owned one that it's the first thing that coems to a females mind as a complete turn off?? above stuff like bad hygene, no teeth, psychotic tendencies, 'has  killed before, is likely to kill again', 'is likely to have sex with your mother' or any of that shit?? fucking heeeeeeeeeell. Like anyone fucking discusses that shit on a night out with a prospective future partner anyway, "yea my interests are pirating DVD's".

"Oooh dear oh dear we're ALL moral guardians in this country and especially in this pub and you're just sending the country to the dogs!!" no that isn't fucking correct at all you set of beauts, it's set in a pub full of fresh faced moral warriors all in complete shock that a guy would dare ever buy a pirate DVD. A few of the pubs round here i've been to have at least once a week had a guy wealking around the place selling blag DVD's with every fucker showing some interest, it might be the pubs i'm going to attracting the wrong sort of people but painting people downloading, torrenting and any of that shit as evil smog breathing rapists wont work, it's as bad as any video nasty headline along the lines of "VIDEO NASTY TERROR TURNED MY SON INTO HALF ROBOT KILLING MACHINE".

If only he had your self-awareness!

I took it as 'Look at these Chinese, they all look alike don't they? If only they did something with their hair...'

[petula dusty]

I think what annoys me most about that advert is the way they sit back looking all smug and defiant with vaguely tousled hair.

Oh and I agree with everything Goldentony said in the post above.

[Hank_Kingsley]

I knew a bloke called Mickey who was a cybergoth pillhead with ADHD.
The rumour was that he raped someone behind a chip shop but nothing ever went to court.

I only have vague recollections of what his hair looked like. Sorry.

Poor, silly bastard! I bet that house was a joy to visit.

Just out of interest BWW, how come you write that in reply to my post?
