Oh. My. God.
Since I’m pretty sure this was made by a Yorkshire agency, the chances of my slagging off someone I know are enormous, but still…
…this TV ad for Jet2 (a low cost carrier operating out of the North of England) has to be one of the worst I’ve seen in a long time. Way beyond so-bad-its-good or ironic territory.
Probably very cheap to make. Which would explain a lot.
Aches and digital pains
After ODing slightly on the exercise front this weekend, I’m now hobbling around while my calf muscles tie themselves in knots.
My brain felt in a similar state this morning when I logged on to the usual post-weekend mountain of blogs, emails and news websites needing to be read and in most cases remembered.
If the majority of our knowledge is now being stored outside our brains (i.e. electronically), we’re going to have to develop more sophisticated filtering tools to a) help us find the information more quickly and b) remember where we last read it. Despite the best efforts of google, microsoft and bloglines, I’m still experiencing brain ache.
