Confused!

Greetings, my lovely reader! Ah, well, the holidays are over now, and there is no longer any time for procrastination (^-^). But anyway, as of late a have been a little c0NfuSeD! (hence title...ahem). What have I been confused about? Well let me tell you! Adverts. In particular, the 'Confused.com' adverts (I don't own it bla bla bla freedom of speech bla bla bla). When I first saw this advert I have to be honest: I didn't really notice anything wrong with it. But, over time, I have begun to see more and more inappropriate innuendo's. Don't believe me?

Example number 1:

Perhaps this to you looks fine, just dandy. Look a little closer and you will see...: two milk maids, one on the left of the picture, one on the right, dressed as what can only be described as 'Slutty Milkmaids'.



Example number 2:

This is just a little extra on those two milkmaids, but here we can see them both spouting nectar points from their milk jugs! Basically, these 'women' are ejaculating on national TV. Hmm...



Example number 3:

I doubt I even need a description for this, but what the heck: The topless guys are feeding MILK to the COWS...
Ok? No? The milk is the *ahem* sperm, the cows are sucking them off, and therefore are women. Not saying gay oral sex doesn't occur, simply that the majority is that of women.

To be honest there were several more examples I didn't include, simply because the computer failed to upload them (damn these infernal machines!!!).
In this advert the women have boobs almost as though they were made of rubber. Well, men, boys, womens boobs are NOT made of rubber, and they do NOT bounce like that. And if they did it would bloody well hurt.

And if you search for 'Confused.com Farmyard (2012, UK)', and read the description, you will read this: So it seems I'm not the only person tired of this sexual charade. I'm not the only one who wants this blatant abuse of advertising to stop. This pornographic imagery should, quite simply, not be showed before the watershed. This about saving a tenner here and there, not about showing randy 14 year old boys bouncing buttocks and breasts, not about showing cows sucking off a farm hand.
And there we have it, I suppose! I've actually managed to link back to my previous post, and had a seperate rant altogether. So...phew! Anger released, no need to punch a tangoed schoolgirl (who me? Punch? Never!). And of course my friends;

'Cara, Bertha and Alan spread their bouncing boobs, shirtless buffs, blatant innuendos and Nectar points at a farm, and I lose all respect towards them. The only complaints that might have been trusted are Bertha's boobs (her arms are skinner since the Christmas ad for some reason) and Cara's misplaced pocket, but you'd better keep a sharp eye on the bald guy as he feeds a sheep.

Now, this may be an ad about double points, but they have hardly made any advert for a whole year that doesn't nag us about Nectar points in any way, despite complaints over the misrepresentation of their values. Double Nectar points are only £10, why throw such a huge party over £10? Won't Confused.com follow the steps of Gocompare and realise how annoying their ads get overtime? Can't we just go back to when Cara wasn't meant to be a singer? CONFUSED.COM! NECTAR POINTS!! THOUSANDS!!! WE GET IT!!!!'


So it seems I'm not the only person tired of this sexual charade. I'm not the only one who wants this blatant abuse of advertising to stop.

BlaBla...Bla?

Greetings! Apologies for lack of postage, but I have been suffering from a 'cold slash bug' after a peasant sneezed on me, and have not been on the computer for the whole week! As a computer nerd, this only made me feel worse!
But this time, I'd like to point out before I start, that I am in no way a maudlin person: I do not go around every day making the worst out of things (to be honest, I have a hard time trying to make things sound worse than they actually are). I just wanted to clear that up, as sometimes we all need a little rant about those silly things that annoy us, whether they be those one time, huge occurrences, or the reoccurring, niggly, annoyances that make us want to punch something (preferably a person). But, *ahem*, back to my main rant topic!

I know that there are always going to be the people that sit at the back of class and do f-all, but what really annoys me is the way they talk. They begin in this 'whisper'. I use the bunny rabbit ears, as it's not really whispering, it's just talking normally with a huskier voice. Does this make it impossible for me to hear you? NO! I honestly don't care how important this is: it usually isn't, but if it really was, you could have a quiet word with the teacher or something. But no. Your blathering on and fucking on, your voice slowly but surely growing to a crescendo, until you let out that stupid, quavering, yet still loud laugh which makes me want to scrape chalk down a board to compare the noises (very similar!).
For instance, in my RS (Religious Studies, or Education, depending on your school) lesson, there is an entire back row which just talks. It may seem amazing to you lot, but I took RS because I enjoy it, and because I want to learn. If you don't want to learn, piss off back home, please.

I would say I was proud of my teachers for standing up to them, for telling them to shut up or get out... but I'm not, because they don't.
I would say I was sorry for my teachers for having to put up with this for their entire careers..but I'm not, bacuse they should be the ones doing something about it.
Half my teachers seem to be unable to handle a class. And it's disapointing! I go to Grammar School; and when I first found out I was going (back when a was a wee scrap of a munchkin!) I was delighted! I thought, ''Wow! No more idiots talking about silly, unneeded, things in life! No more teachers
 being unable to teach properly, no more of them not knowing what to do, or being unable to control a class!''
Because that's what I'm like. No, I'm not normal, but why is it bad that I want a good education? Why is it bad that I want to do my GCSE's in modular form instead of one huge clumping essay at the end of things, when I've forgotten everything? Why is it bad that I have interests in 'geeky', or 'nerdy' things? (oh, and there is a difference between geeky and nerdy!)

Let's have an example! Let's call my teacher 'Teacher X' (oh how original, Erin).
 Teacher X enters a classroom where 30% of the pupils are chatting at various decibel levels. She walks over to her desk in shoes which are more fitting slippers than work shoes, sits down, and logs onto the computer. She doesn't utter a word for a solid 7 minutes, then gets up and begins the lesson. No one stops their conversations, and the rest of the 70% of the class strains to hear what she is saying. She hands out various sheets for the students to fill in, not once telling those noisy students to 'quieten down'.
To sum up; one whole hour spent by me straning to hear what the teacher says, while the entire back row yaps off. For. The. Entire. HOUR.

If you suffer as I do, please comment about it, and, my friends,
Live long, and Prosper.
