That is BRILLIANT! Those ads have been annoying me hugely, so it's good to see a parody of one. And what an apt parody.

First-rate, innit? There really should be more of this kind of thing, and there probably is, but the mainstream media so rarely pick up on it. I remember seeing a programme about guerrilla advertising about ten years ago, and it cited the case of some environmentalists in Canada who put out a TV ad on the effects of car culture - right in the middle of that country's equivalent of Top Gear.
