False Claims

[The_Boy_Mac_2]

Can anyone disprove any false claims that manufacturers would lead us to beleive - here is the first :

Apparently only Smarties have the answer but i asked them a question and they didnt know it yet I found the answer in a book on my desk. This makes that theory wrong on two counts! Damn lying Nestle

[Ian D]

one of the tyre companies say, 'fun isn't a straight line' and yet i think drag racing is fun and also in happens to be in a straight line.

this what you mean?

[Jeff]

I know it's not really what you mean, but I really hate those ads where they say something like:

"Do you suffer from constant attacks by killer bees"

And you reply:

"No, I don't"

Then the TV guy carries on and says:

"Then you need new anti-Bee treatment with Pollony repellex, our new super scientific formula"

despite the fact you've already said you don't have the problem!

What is the point of asking a question then not listneing ot the answer :confused:

It's one of those stupid things that really p1sses me off :mad: :(

[Hayley]

Seriously now. Does anyone know if a finger of fudge is just enough to give yourself a treat?;)

Dunno, but I reckon a Mars a day would just give you rotten teeth :)

I find that eating a Milky Way between meals does spoil my appetite.

And the car in front isn't a Toyata - it's me in my 200!

And the Lynx Effect - well it doesn't work in Peterborough...

BMWs obviously aren't the ulimate driving machines, although they are driven by ****ers.

How can the future be Orange?

How can something be "new and improved" ? It's either new or it's been improved

[The_Boy_Mac_2]

Nice! Im thinking of taking these companies to Court. This will be the biggest uproar since the case against "The Never Ending Story"

LOL :D Shampoo and make up companies are the worst at making up scientific sounding BS! Shinyness, bouncyness, smoothness, all increased by x% Not to mention all the made up sounding 'essences' or other made up stuff they add (they never add chemicals, only 'essences' of stuff).

Who falls for this crap :confused:
