It occurs to me that the makers of Uncle Ben cooking sauces are on a mission to offend everyone on earth.
Every advert they have features stereotyped characters. Their Indian curry sauces features people dancing about in a Bollywood musical style and their Chinese sweet and sour sauce advert shows people doing kung fu and air-running.
What's next? Instant haggis featuring red haired people sayig "Och aye, the noo."???

Big Brother Eviction Advert
Saw an advert asking for phone-in votes to choose who to evict from the Big Brother house.
As usual, there's a number you call and add a short number to the end. The ad went as follows:
To evict Marcus add "06". To evict Halfwit, add "05".
That's a bit harsh isn't it? Calling the poor fellow names in the eviction advert?

I'm sorry, do you want to wait your bloody turn?
I was playing Battlefield 1943 yesterday, an online first person shooter game. It's fantastic fun and recently a new mode was unlocked: Air Superiority. It's a planes only version of the game for the players who like the airplane part of the game.
Each time you respawn, you start on one of two aircraft carriers on your side of the map. There's no way to get anywhere in the map without a plane. I spawned after a spectacular crash where I'd ploughed straight into another aircraft (which handily counts as a kill for both of us). There were no planes available, and two other players waiting for the planes to respawn, of which there are only ever two to use. Being nice (and British) I waited until the two guys who'd been there earlier than me got their planes and got back into the battle. Another player spawned behind me after they'd taken off, and immediately starts giving me abuse and shooting me (which, because we're on the same side does no damage). He then nicked the first plane that spawned and took off.
What a git!
To show that the universe has a sense of fairness, he immediately died in the most spectacular way. He hadn't even got his wheels off the deck before an enemy plane, fluffing a bombing run on our carrier in the most horrendous way, smashed straight into him head on.
I laughed so hard, I fell off my seat.
