The milky bar kid is strong and tough

The red car and the blue car had a race

Turn the milk chocolatey

Keep hunger locked up tip lunch

I have tried to avoid adverts for 20 years, but the adverts of my childhood (not just ones aimed at kids - autoglass repair and replace, safe style do buy one get one free, dfs sale ends Sunday, ronseal quick drying wood stain does exactly what it says on the tin)

The brainwashing is sickening.

I still remember phone numbers from radio ads I heard as a kid. I don't have any phone number memorized apart from my own

A golem carved out of butter playing a trombone, an animated blue telephone, a puppy stealing toilet paper, Boddingtons.

Same vibes, different details.

All red wants to do is stuff his face! Overeating bad, according to that ad. Other than Milky Ways.
