I saw one last night; god awful and cringeworthy to the extreme....

1)
Funeral adverts, telling me that I should save for my funeral so that my loved one's won't have a bill to pay.
Bugger off, I've got enough saved to pay for me funeral, don't need a bunch of finance crooks to tell me the bleeding obvious.

2)
Car adverts; buy one of our SUVs, and you will drive through clear streets, never meet a traffic jam, and it will still be shiny and clean at the end of a drive through a duststorm.
Also, you will be able to drive like an arsehole with impunity.

3)
Loan company ads.

4)
All other ads.

^Have you noticed how the "average cost" of a Funeral is different on every Ad? Surely it should be exactly the same?

No TumbleDrier, I've never noticed, mainly 'cos I mute the bastards.
Oh, I just love, love, love that mute button; such a feeling of power.
It's the closest I will ever get to world domination.

My dad reckons the actual cost is more like a third of what most of them quote; and he should know, he's a damn sight closer to needing one than me...

Aha I found that last remark so funny kelly, and then I realized I'm probably near that age; er, not so funny now

My dad is the same age as Prince Charles.... I'm hoping Charles croaks it first though....

It's entirely legal for your 'loved ones' just to bury you in the garden

Might affect the value of the house, though

Beagle street can`t stand them wives telling hubby what to do so they get a good payout
