First of all, the fact that am posting this topic in this week, has got nothing to do with v-day or the v-week, except for the coincidental burst of prolonged frustration over the non-stop pop-ups and ads in the internet. The foundation note - over a period time, as the source of entertainment has improved, the advertisement sector has only augmented its annoyance.I am not completely against the ads, as I have a few of them in my blog itself (doesn't seem useful, thinking of removing them..!!), but how silly an ad could get. The one topping the charts are the cosmetic creams ones (Fair and Lovely to quote one of them..!! :P), where the person would grow fair in 6 weeks (yeah right..!!), and giving them a tough competition has to be the underwear ads, where the person hooks up with the opposite sex coz of a better brand (in the name of God, please..!!). Like people go around wondering what brand the other person wears! Not much needs to be said about their timing and the models, especially the brand Poomer, Poombukar (people from South India would know this..!! I wouldnt be doing justice to them, the brands, by explaining..!!!), T.T, etc.
My personal favourite has to be the ones with the phrase 'Meet the singles in your neighbourhood', 'get laid tonight', 'meet your dream partner', blah blah..!! The basic conclusion one can reach from these ads, is the ignorance of a country's local ads towards the movie stars of other countries. I have seen Nayanthara's pic like a million times in those ads (for people who dont know Nayanthara, she is the latest Tamil Film industry sensation, 'Kollywood' really doesnt sound good..!!). Need I say about the comments put underneath them in the ads. The intriguing part is that these are gaining momentum in social websites, like orkut and facebook. Even if you consider them to be in the same domain, seeing them in news websites just puts you to the epitome of frustration, atleast me. Picture this, a news of bomb blast somewhere, and when you click the link, the first thing that pops-up 'Here are the females in your neighbourhood', and your mind takes the form of Dr.Hannibal Lecter, probably one of the few reasons why I get bugged of internet.

machan thr needs to b a certain amount of 'fairness' to the amount of fairness they achieve once using the cream, which is not quite true, proved courtesy actor paarthiban who is a non-stop user of fair&lovely..!! :D and ramadoss, though i approve of his vision, but implementing stringent laws, not happening..!!
