The audio cassette thread made me remember this ad for Maxwell tapes

Then I ended up looking for other ones uses to like from the 80s and 90s

This stupid forum. For the love of god can we have a “video” option in the tags bar above where you post text?

I find when I post a URL for YouTube the video just appears, but weirdly I can't even see a link for your videos on my laptop but they're there on my phone.

<EDIT> ...and there they are. Can see them now.

Can’t link to it (computer illiteracy!) but the Budweiser frogs and Louis the Lizard get my vote.

After you've watch that Old Spice advert, watch this:

Accrington Stanley?!

Did you know they redid this ad a couple of years ago, with the same actors? Advertising some sort of vodka.

I'd settle for it just playing videos at all.

In chrome you press play and just get a blank space and audio.

Your browser configuration is obviously totally the forum's fault.

This is billed as a "banned" advert, it isn't, it was intended as online viral marketing from the outset. But it's very funny.
