Funniest adverts
Posted: April 1, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentI’m not one to sit down and watch adverts when they come on, that’s why I prefer the good old BBC channels with no interruptions.
However, when I do manage to watch them, I notice there are some quite hilarious adverts that make me come alive again after watching an episode of Emmerdale. I’ve had several observations about annoying adverts as well.
“Go compare, go compare!”
These adverts have a way of getting stuck in my head. As much as I hate them, I still find myself doing a little sing-along in my living room.
These are the adverts we all love to hate.
Moving on to the funniest adverts. There are the ones that makes you ask yourselves, “why would he do that”?
Like this…
There are some that are just over exaggerated, and that make you think “how the hell can babies dance like that? Oh please!”
Like this…
You might as well watch the interview after the making of the masterpiece advert.
Lastly, there are ones that you’re probably still trying to figure out what the point of was, how do they relate to the product? I know I do.
This is the ‘Cactus kid’ advert by Oasis where the young girl gets pregnant.
Don’t worry, the advert’s been banned so there’s no way your little girl will be doing a runner with a Cactus kid.
They eventually had a Baby Cactus.
Watch this…
We have to give advertisers a little credit, they do try.
Eruchi’s mad mix
Posted: March 31, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentIn my previous ‘own content’, I danced to ‘Tribal skank’ which got a lot of comments on Facebook. What does this show? Could it be that people enjoy acting funny on YouTube just to get noticed or what?
From my experience, that seems to be the case.
So, I decided to make another video of me dancing to Ciara’s ‘1,2 step’,
Hope I get noticed.
Impersonations
Posted: March 30, 2011 Filed under: Funny Leave a commentCelebrities and the media are a huge influence in our lives. We want to dress like them, dance like them and now…
sing like them. It’s becoming a big trend for ordinary people to impersonate celebrities. Some are good and some…?
Well it’s up to you to judge
Here is Philip TRYING to sing like Trey Songz. I thought it was pretty average. It’s not going to make Platinum any time soon.
However, I’d give 9 out of ten for effort.
Moving on to Beyonce and her big hit ‘Single Ladies’. During the finals of last year’s ‘Let’s dance for Comic Relief’ Katy Brand gave it a go and it was surprisingly entertaining. The performance was reasonable and I’m not talking about the size difference between her and Beyonce.
I mean, if he can do it…
so can she.
But I’m wondering… why the single ladies dance?
Stupid but funny
Posted: March 25, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentHere are some videos of things that we might find so stupid and pointless…
…yet can’t help but laugh at.
But are we laughing at them or with them? You decide.
Watch this…
And this…
WARNING: Hope this doesn’t offend anyone, as I said, it’s funny stuff. You can’t help but laugh it off.

Culture Comedy: what’s funny?
Posted: March 22, 2011 Filed under: Funny Leave a commentWhilst we might think comedy is simply something that makes people laugh, there’s more to it than just cracking a few jokes here and there. Looking around I’ve noticed some serious differences between cultural groups. So let’s take a look at some of the best American, English and African comedians’s and uncover what makes them distinctive.
THE AMERICANS: Black comedians
They often explore topics of wealth, race, sex, swearing and violence. We could say that the Americans are way out there, nothing is off limits. Freedom of expression to the max.
THE ENGLISH:
English comedy explores sarcasm, dry humour and jokes that tend to be understood mainly by the great British nation.
THE AFRICANS:
African comedy reflects genuine stereotypes in African culture and caricartures them. People that recognise the characters in friends and family can’t help but laugh out loud.
Which video do you find most funny?
