Really surprising considering that he struggled with the computer for a laminator on Taskmaster

Wait, that really happened? It was literally a joke in Series 8 of Red Dwarf. Kryten is tricked into hanging up a banner that reads "Have A Fantastic Period". Crazy that a similar phrase actually got used in marketing.

@@NoXion100 Series 8 of Red Dwarf came out around the same time Always was running those ads, so I'd guess that episode was referencing the campaign. The ads were bad enough, but the fact it was printed all over the piece of plastic covering the adhesive strip when you unwrapped the pad was even worse.

I'm shocked if either of those is real. Good thing I've always just bought generic or at least ad free boxes.😂

Have you heard Scarlett Moffat on a Tampon ad say “right size, right angle, right up there”?

@@Donna-nu8ul Oooohhhh so Kryten was referring to an ad campaign? Now that I never knew

The reason he's so good at those things is because of his quick wits. In this clip you see it when he asks the guy casual questions and runs with it and the crowd is roaring.

I miss mock the week too.

So you think he got the job for which reason?

I wonder how Rodney Dangerfield would be in todays life... probably the funniest shit u ever seen. Favorite joke by em "I tell ya when I was a kid, all I knew was rejection. My yo-yo, it never came back." 😂

He's a funny man

That's genius.

Genius. Evil genius. But still genius.

“Small penis size”, “average penis size”…. Uh thanks I’ll have the XXL please.

That’s the sad truth, it’s basically subliminal messaging 🤣 “child size” is better though, don’t have to annoy everyone by needing to go for a piss 🤣

"This one, labelled Child Sized, is a 512oz bucket. How is that child sized?" "That's because it's roughly the size of the average three year old child, if they were liquified"

My experience of having two children who are autistic is that they are logical so would find advertisements stupid ie the domestic advert saying it kills germs dead is stupid

As a former autistic 12 year old I was completely immune to advertising and still am

Ads for the disabled are always patronizing

As somebody who actually owns a marketing agency, I can tell you that most commercials, especially the ones for razors and skincare are targeted at women. Prepare to have your mind blown. They still do most of the grocery shopping.

The only good one i ever saw was men's wearhouse saying "when everybody's looking at her, she'll be looking at you." Whoever wrote that understood what men care about. You can't sell them a suit based on arbitrary convention. Sell them on wanting to please/honor/respect the woman they love.

I was thinking the same! It's an art to blend audience participation and prepared jokes to a seamless act of stand up comedy.

therin lies the skills.

It really is incredible how well he's able to play off an audience, and he doesn't do it in the usual "just make fun of them" sort of way you see a lot of times. Sure he'll rib them some, but it's always more of a having fun and playful sort and not dragging people for their looks or making really basic insults. Dude is immensely talented at improvising and being funny doing it. I'd always loved him on panel shows before but was blown away when I came across some of his standup.

He is very quick and great at improv. But when you do improv 1000s of times, you build up routines that you then riff off, and you have learnt what works and what doesnt. I think I want to say it is not just genius, its a result of hard graft and experience as well.

For me it’s gilet Advertising razors for men by insulting men is still the worst advertising campaign I’ve ever seen

It's a post-Soviet parody of a Gillette MACH3 commercial.

​@@ConserpovYeah, it's about a quarter of a joke from That Mitchell and Webb Sound on the subject.

​@@Conserpov is that really? Because it does sound Soviet, both Because 3 blades might've soumded extensive, and because there were many Soviet jokes were like "this is so good on paper (and terrible in practice)" (here: the blades so sharp that they polish the bone), or just that it's do terrible. I only remember one joke but it's a practical joke requires a use of old fashioned tea bag and a lighter. It's about a space rocket, and how Soviet Russians want to send into space but it's too expensive, so they first get rid of safety features, then the computer, then the landing gear, then the fuel... and at the end you light the little paper from the tea bag (representing an empty shell of the rocket) and it flies.

@@tymondabrowski12 Yes, really. "The blades so sharp that they..." is directly from the Gillette MACH3 commercial, and you probably can find the parody on youtube. As for rocket joke, it was never Soviet - or about Soviets - either. You are clearly too young to understand the nuances.

@@ConserpovI’ve heard the joke about the Russian Rocket tea bag before. It’s a two-second bit where you explain that Rocket is most effective for Motherland because it’s as bare minimum as possible

I work with people day in and day out and sadly I can completely see the confusion people can get from trying to interpret lines. Even if only 1% of people have a hard time that's still potentially millions of people and the company must not hear the end of it....

On the other hand you can play Wolfenstein on it

Men. Men pay extra for stuff like that.

Why one line vs two? Why not just a checkmark for pregnant, and an X for not pregnant.

@@ItApproaches Better yet, why not just a "wuh wah" for not pregnant and a "ding ding ding" for pregnant? Here's the better questions: What do blind women do with pregnancy tests? Are there ones that do sound? What about deaf AND blind women? We got any Braille tests?

I think the worse were the vibrating ones. Who wants a wobbly Razer blade on their face 🤷🏻‍♀️

I recently bought a classic "safety razor" from Henson Shaving. It's precision made and the best razor I've ever used (and I've tried a few at the ripe age of 61). And the blades cost next to nothing.

now the count down has started for the 5 blade razor with *2* additional blades on the back for "contouring with high precision" (TM) ;)

You guys remember the quintippio commercial?

​@@christinaedwards5084Have you ever used one? For the last 8 years I've been a beard grower, and cut it with a hair trimmer. But I used to be an impressionable youth who was really excited about how cool and fancy Gillette razors were. The vibration function isn't really *necessary*, but it does make the shave better. And it ain't wobbly, at least not until it gets old and worn enough. For all its superfluous design and marketing, the Gillette Mach Fusion Power Stealth 5 or whatever it's called is a pretty nice razor, enough so that my wife always wanted to use it instead of her own inferior marketed for women model.

Yeah, more counter-top space. Just make it make the tea I actually want at any given time, out of the whole tea collection, and I'm set for life.

Instead you get a kettle that can't be pinged by the radar gun.

I was once at the comedy club seeing Ria Lina and Ed Gamble. And they had a Minecraft UKpostsr from Nashville. Comedy fucking gold!

They always have the fall back, that we saw here, of just pointing out how boring that job is to talk about. It becomes a meta joke at that point, and a good catch all when all others fail.

Same for me! I'm not a native speaker, but Dara gets me every time!

This would have been really useful during the pandemic when people were not great at reading those things. Just insert the casette and the machine will read it for you. Too bad that most people who would buy these are the most concerned of the disease and as a result would have fearscrolled the internet for long enough to know how to read those tests.

*faint

​@@mena94x3"F-E-I-N-T" Basically: "imaginary".

@@mathesonkamin6067 Uh, no. Not really applicable here. F-A-I-N-T Barely perceptible.

​@@sybrandwoudstra9236Did you know that the Australian Minister for Health Greg Hunt, was photographed with the CEO of a medical manufacturer in 2019. Caused a stir spouting conflict of interest. The photograph is of Hunt and the CEO holding the covid tests product. The caption in 2019 read that the testing kits were for colds and flu. That manufacturer was given the manufacturing rights to produce majority USA covid testing cassettes. I'm not convinced the pandemic was totally planned, however I'm highly suspicious that there weren't people who knew something was coming.

Hell, the other day I saw an on T.V. that would be borderline false advertising... That is if I could even figure out what it was for. All it was, was a bunch of 'testimonies' about some 'CBD' product, but it never even explained what a 'CBD' is, or what it actually does. It was the most bizarre ad I had ever seen.

We really do have brain-dead marketing for brain-dead people in this country. Makes me legitimately angry whenever ads come on any TV and I have to listen to the same jaunty, forcibly-cheery male/female voices coming up with THE most ridiculous reasons why I ought to buy their product.

If it wouldn't work they'd stop doing it, so you can imagine there are many people who "buy it" (both the ad nonsense and the product)

Thing is, isn't it less manly to have 5 blades? Shouldn't Real Men be shaving with a sharpened shell or rock?

​@@buckrodgers1162Hey. If you don't know, then you don't know. ;);) I'm thinking it would be because CBD is a marijuana product so maybe there we're regulations of what could be in the ad.?

Women's products be like "Today is the best day you'll ever have!" Men's products be like "Sack it up, you wuss."

The worst I find is women’s scents versus men’s scents. For things like body wash, deodorant, etc. Women’s are like fresh floral breeze and island paradise and juicy peach and soft jasmine. Men’s are like “ROCKET FUEL” and “ICY MOUNTAIN BLAST” and “COOL RUSH” and “SWAGGER” “LUMBERJACK” . It’s funny and also slightly patronizing.

The "greatest stand-up comic ever"? There's a lot of competition for that title. Is he better than Robin Williams? Steve Martin? Rodney Dangerfield? Don Rickles? Eddie Murphy? Joan Rivers? Richard Pryor? Bill Cosby (was a very funny guy, despite his crimes)? Jerry Seinfeld? George Carlin? Gabriel Iglesias? Dave Chappelle?

@@revpembroke3082 The short answer to your question is: *Yes!* The long answer is: I've listened to each of the Comedians you listed. Some are great, while I don't consider some all that amusing. Seinfeld, I don't find funny at all. Robin Williams was funniest when he was young and fueled with cocaine. As he got older, he merely became a caricature of his former self. He serious acting was by far better than his later comedy. Steve Martin is another comic who piqued in the 70's. After *_"The Jerk"_* it was all downhill. *_"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels"_* was the closest that he got to any previous level, but even there it was Michael Cain (a serious actor) who carried that movie. Dangerfield? Great! Still love his stuff today. His schtick remains unique. Enough said! Rickles? Superb! Nobody can work a room like he did; and there will likely never be another entertainer like him. He was the King of insults, the Sultan of sting, the Merchant of Venom, etc... Murphy is another Great comic; and he can act. Before Dara came along, I ranked him among the best; and he still sits among the pantheon of great comedians. Joan Rivers was a lot better than most people gave her credit for. I saw her open for Rickles (live); and she could work a room with ease. Despite her tendency to rehash old jokes, I still consider her among the great comedians. Richard Pryor! There's a man who still doesn't get the credit he deserved, despite being iconic and breaking down barriers for Black comedians. He really soared in the 70's & 80's. You couldn't produce his material today, because there are too many politically correct candy asses in government and in bureaucratic positions, who would want to censor and cancel him. I listened to his stuff until the cassette tape wore out. My favourite album of his was *_"Wanted: Live In Concert."_* The skit on Leon Spinks is still hilarious!!! Btw, did you know that Richard Pryor wrote part of the screenplay for Mel Brooks' *_"Blazing Saddles"_* ? He even wrote all the bits for Mongo, as well as other parts. Cosby? Putting aside his penchant for drugging and violating women, his comedy was definitely great. What made him stand out from the rest was that he didn't use expletives, or get vulgar in his acts. Ironic, isn't it? I never considered him in the same level as Pryor, Murphy, Dangerfield, or Rickles, though. Carlin! Oh, that man will always have a special place in my funny bone. He did more for comedy than people realize. I didn't agree with his politics, but the man was hilarious! In many ways, his humour was thought-provoking and insightful. Gabriel Iglesias! I love his stuff! He's probably the closest to Dara's level, in my opinion. His humour is timeless. Chappelle! Now there's an interesting cat! I have a great deal of respect for the man. Not only is he funny, but when he wants to get a point across, it's as poignant as it is hilarious. I would say that Chappelle is among the rare few comedians whom you could describe as _"truly brave."_ In that sense, I rank him up there with Nick Di Paolo. They're the kind of people who are strong and secure in their identity and ideologies. The ironic part about Dave (for me, at least), is that as he evolves in his profession, his politics do so as well. He's serendipitously aligning with similar beliefs that I hold. Dara just seems to have a natural ability to roll all the above characteristics into one; and put on a show that you just help but enjoy. Even when he's hosting British game shows, or is a panelist on one, he's hilarious! His range of materials is fantastic, too! You never know the specifics of what you're going to get, but you definitely know that the quality will be top notch.

​@@RyanWAFFELYoung I'm very disappointed to see the creator of that company is not named Bob

Have you been in a Ross or Marshalls recently? At least like last year, they had some bottles of stuff that looked really scammy. Just a bottle, with a color label sticker, that says “lotion” or “hand soap” in the most basic of fonts, not even an aesthetic one, and NOTHING. ELSE. No ingredients, no manufacturer address, NOTHING.

But how many blades does it have.....?

@@decodolly1535 Six blades, we think. But the seventh blade might be in "stealth mode". No-one's been able to find out.

We’re past even those for the most part. Men in adverts now are largely average blank slates. Mostly the same for women, except they’re also presented as being highly capable and outwardly confident when using whatever the fairly mundane product is. I think eventually ad people will just resemble uncontroversially everyday people to avoid alienating any particular demographic by being either too demeaning or too patronising

The ones I've used have an automatic temperature cut off. However we don't use the stove top ones, virtually no one uses that type here.

This is only used on non-electric ones. Literally no one outside America or an extremely weird situation would use a no-electric kettle because the electric one is just plain faster, more convenient and piss cheap from any store.
