"It's so easy to use Geico Car Insurance.com (or whatever it is) a caveman could do it"

"WHAT! Not cool!" Caveman storms off

And any other Geico commercial.

Plus the new Mentos the Freshmaker techno bird song. Its pretty cool.

How about: "Scrubing Bubbles" or "Away go troubles down the drain"

Arnabas · 08-17-2005, 10:16 AM

"Sorry, Charlie"

Trivia: supposedly, Charlie Tuna was created by James Dean...

I saw that ad for the first time a few weeks ago and had a good chuckle. Saw it again watching the Derby (grr West Coast [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img] ) and had another laugh. But i'm guessing the third time i see it it will have lost the effect. Still clever though.

As far as ad catch phrases go, i can't think of any off the top of my head. Maybe later.
