we get the same crap here in the states, but because of our capitalist ways, it is on atleast a thousand times more each day, on all 900 of our channels. I hate advertising.

No, someone should contact the Human Rights Dept of the UN, as the idiot who designed the crazy frog (and all senior staff of the companies who sell it) should be tried (and executed imo) for war crimes/attempted genocide.

The crazy frog is ****, the only thing that could possibly be worse is a DJ dropping the remix (axel?) in the middle of his set. I think i would have to do serious harm to anyone who did that.
That chicken one for the same company is also shocking

I think the company Jamba is German, Jamster is the name in English-speaking countries.
I'm pretty sure there's other businesses involved in some greater conspiracy, maybe to make the world more dependant on psychoactive drugs...

It's getting beyond a joke here in the UK. I guess that the jamster:normal advert ratio is currently holding steady at about 1:5 on the main advertising revenue funded channels. My girlfriend has been watching UKHistory to escape it all and she hates history tv progs.

Luckily I got annoyed by TV in general long before this advert started to infest it, but I've heard it before, in internet-banner-ad form.
Internet ads that play music are annoying enough, but this one... ugh. I saw it once, for 10 seconds (most of which was spent in stunned silence), and I have to say, it was the single most irritating thing I have ever seen. EVER.
It's like someone purposefully made it that irritating. Like, instead of virtue of the quality of their product or their ability to convince the consumer that they have a quality product, they just try to be as annoying as possible so that the consumer will at least remember them.
Now I close whatever site I was looking at if I glimpse that ad. I don't care what site it is, NOTHING is worth enduring that.
Plus, that chicken just looks freeky, like it's on ***** or something. ---------------- Haha, stupid monkey! Now I'VE got the Oscar! Enjoy your worthless gun! |

The other **** like that crap chick and the dragon that sounds the ******* same is enough to make me want to punch the guy who made them.
Also, i heard sumone who had it as their ringtone on the train , and i moved carriage,,,,, __

Rightà This is what you doà inform everyone you know not to buy from them and let them know there are ring tone software tools out there. Teach them about USB cables that can upload ringtones. Tell everyone you know with a cell phone and make them tell their friends. 0.o It's not you... no wait it is you. |

Jesus christ does any sane person actually buy that crap. Them birds and that frog song are *** as hell. I would be so damn embarrased if i was with someone who had it, let alone if i had it.
Also that rap one is starting to wind me up. sommat like "you want that call and you can not lie" or sommat. They are so ******* annoying. People who buy that crap should be rounded up and shot

Have had this as my ringtone since last weeks b3ta. There is a guy in our office has the Crazy Frog thing, and he lets his phone ring just to see how many people he is p*ssing off. Then answers the phone and looks smug!

dial this for mono dial this for polyphonic dial this for real

Argh.
Also, I noticed, the frog's face kinda looks like the baby from dinosaurs 
Oh yeah, I wouldn't mind SO much, but they don't even stick to showing it just ONCE per add break...

You think that is bad, when i was in kazakhstan we had an even more annoying ringtone.
The advert on television consisted of two monkeys dancing around (cartoon monkeys). The ringtone was made entirely of their farts whilst they danced. Then, the smaller of the two monkeys puts a lighter behind the bigger monkey and he gets fart propelled into a wall, the sound of which is in the ringtone.
And yes, i thought those adverts would have stopped by the time i got back.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH¼!! Mimiru > It'd be a tie, the monkies nerfed pooflinger wouldnt have enough tracking to hit the parrot orbiting him, but the parrot's beak is so small it couldnt break the monkey's fur tanking. |

I hate that stupid advert.
Just to make u jealous... I was in europe the other week and one advert was of a naked woman, in a shower 2/3rds full with fish swimming around in it....Amazingly you could see every bit of her and it was about 20 secs long. I never wanted to be a fish before i saw that advert, and even now im certain that i could watch it time and again
Sod the frog i wanna be one of those fish
Let's get this straight, if a girl has to be "rescued" 10 times a week from a brothel shes not a damsel but a prostitute.
