Does the entire Innocent Smoothies aesthetic strike you as deeply fucking irritating?

let me show you how it's done

oh no, an advert

what is that song, it is fucking disgusting!

the bud one i mean

Shit beer commercials are a fact of life.

The song from the Budweiser ad is "All Together Now" by The Beatles. I think it was used for another commercial years ago but I can't remember for what.

hello

We like our orange juice because it tastes very, very good.

But there's no need to bang on about it, so here's a picture of an annoyed owl dressed as a tree to help pass the time.

Would put money on both of you having used this company already this morning.

still wanna know who this is

Huh, was expecting this to have been bumped for this:

funny you say that, i bought the dragonfruit one of those at the weekend, and it had some bullshit on the side like "rosie is at glastonbury. justin's tent got stuck in the mud. vitamin water won't help with this, but it might help you win an arm wrestling contest with your gran :)"

"vitamin water won't help with this, but it might help to murder thousands of children"

:)

i believe this is covered upthread, complete with painstakingly typed-out blurbs

"here at innocent we are busy knitting wooly hats for genocidal soldiers in rwanda. for every baby that's killed, we'll hand pick you an orange! ps: david hasselhoff!"

this whole schtick actually makes people distrust human kindness and enthusiasm.

^^^yep

That innocent video posted a month ago... It's like The Office but everyone's David Brent. horrible.

Personally can't think of any company trying to do the OTT nice approach, except for banks and petroleum companies, so it's not really as irritating when they are so obviously fucking people over at every turn.

There's that creepy thing Westpac are doing where they have those giant banners on the window saying HI I AM FRANK SMITH, BRANCH MANAGER and father of two and snowboard enthusiast and superman and bla bla bla and I'm here to help!"

If I was a bank manager and had to have that shit plastered outside my workplace I think I'd find a new job.

Ugh, this.

"human kindness and enthusiasm" is a myth devised to sell you crap products.

Those British Vitamin Water blurbs are so British. Flatmates, snogged, trainers, Glastonbury, prawn cocktail crisps.

it's like anglophile vocab

Until just now I had never opened this thread, never heard of these drinks and was 100% convinced that Innocent Smoothies was a band name.

shame on you

i really like innocent smoothies.

the aesthetic is horrid. had a pot noodle lately (;_;) and it had some matey stuff about telling their mum if it didn't taste right or whatever pish. I DEMAND PROFESSIONAL DECORUM.

they taste nice...tho a friend claimed to me at the weekend they changed from 4 a day to 2 a day or some shit...

we were ordering battered sausages at the time that we discussed this disgraceful news

yeah they're 2-a-day. I buy two cartons whenever they have it for 2 for some slightly cheaper price in tesco and have a big glass at breakfast.

I buy it but it's hard to unseat berocca as my breakfast beverage.

guys

someone needs to start making ad campaigns that say "we are money hungry irresponsible cunts"

Think Barclays still use that slogan.

These companies are clearly all shook in the wake of the Milk Advisory Council introducing its Pixie Lott Ersatz Cumstache gambit.

haaaaaa

i wondered what the f that was. saw it on the side of a bus.

Our veggie options contain no meat or meat products and we aim to prevent them contacting our chickens in any way (even by phone).

That fits in here, right?

what is worse? vitamin water or suing over the health claims put forward by vitamin water, which entails believing them

Guy sitting next to me in a long drawn out tedious meeting yesterday was drinking vitamin water. I wonder if it helped him focus on the pointless argument that took up most of the 2+ hours?

there's some kind of new range of lotions or whatever in tesco that does this inspirational quote bullshit on the front, i find it disproportionately infuriating

not disproportionate

dude, you rant in all caps about the results of food polls!

<3 you LJ, but ... just sayin'

i'm past caring about the food polls

although in 4 minutes i won't be

A friend of mine just sold some footage (originally shot for an experimental film!) to Vitamin Water. Pretty savvy move, imo

Wow the blurbs on the US versions of Glaceau are somehow more aggravating than the UK ones

no wait the semifinals close tomorrow

oh and i'm not even fucking bothered really

glaceau need to be shot into the sun
