[elc1960]

The down side of this ad is that girl's fine ass is only on screen for about a half a second . . . blink and you miss it.

[Springbok295]

@elc1960

Nowadays you wouldn't even see that much. Some libtard would be screaming it's sexist, racist, and why isn't there a bloated coloured sitting on the bike.

[TheChutzpahGirl]

The Yellow pages are American.

The Australian pages were PINK.

An American company deliberately underquoted the South Australian company that always produced the pink pages, to deliberately run the Australian company out of business, and then (in subsequent years) charge what-ever-they liked - because there was no longer any competition.

Anyone remember the pink-pages?

[SissyNekoBoi]

@TheChutzpahGirl Are you serious? The yellow pages are practically free.. And couldn't the same argument apply for the pink-pages before they experienced competition from the yellow-pages?

[TheChutzpahGirl]

@SissyNekoBoi

Advertisements in the Yellow Pages are very expensive in Australia. Prior to the takeover by an American company, advertising was available at a reasonable cost. The American company got the business by running at a LOSS, until the Australian company closed shop, at which point the American company started overpricing.

This is the American Way of doing business - monopolizing capital for the purpose of ruthless exploitation. This is the way Americans treat small countries.

[SissyNekoBoi]

@TheChutzpahGirl So all american industry is destructively monopoly oriented whereas australia's business are pure and ethical and not profit-oriented? You seem to use a lot of hyperbole so I'm guessing this probably has nothing to do with what the yellow-pages did and more to do with your general dislike of america.

[TheChutzpahGirl]

@SissyNekoBoi You made a foolish guess, and then tried to save face by making yet another silly comment. (Or are you just looking for a fight?)

How about you attempt to discuss the issue, instead of pre-determining my value system, and then attacking this value system, which you invented on my behalf.

[SissyNekoBoi]

@TheChutzpahGirl What's the issue, the fact that the yellow pages operated within the bounds of Australian law to put the pink-pages out of business, or the fact that your entire complaint about the yellow-pages holding a monopoly on advertising is completely moot considering most people have access to the internet? Or did you want to discuss that advertising is a lot wider in scope that a simple add in a phone book, and that a company offering a lower alternative to the YP could compete?

[SissyNekoBoi]

@TheChutzpahGirl And the reason I guessed what your value system is is because like I said you used a hell of a lot of hyperbole in reference to America, implying you have some underlying bias against the entire system in the first place. You'd probably do a better service to your arguments by not being such a chest-thumper, then people who aren't automatically predisposed to your point of views might actually consider them

[TheChutzpahGirl]

@SissyNekoBoi

Is your initial comment here merely a foolish mistake, or did you come here looking for someone to pick a fight with?

You are being deliberately rude, although you were never provoked.

[SissyNekoBoi]

@TheChutzpahGirl My initial comment was in reference to yours. Why doesn't rudeness apply to you? Read your comments and look at the colorful language you use. You can't seem to present an objective argument without sounding like an ideologue, and after spewing your crap about America you respond to any question critical of your opinion as rude, foolish, whatever. It's okay, you can just walk away if you've never given more thought to your ideas than just a gut reaction.

[TheChutzpahGirl]

@SissyNekoBoi While you are accusing me of rudeness, you have placed these comments on YT.

"wow.. they butchered the fuck out of this song"

"Mark has such a bad ass voice :B"

Receding hair-line is receding.. :x"

"Thumbs up if you're stupid motherfucker and actually fall for this shit"

[youtuuberoxx]

BLIMEY!!!

[MrBaxMusic]

How come this has so many dislikes?

[AustralianAds]

@MrBaxMusic 2 seconds of somebody's arse in a 30 second commercial is bound to disappoint internet perverts.

[Neurodisco77]

@AustralianAds

I love your cynically wise answers

[AustralianAds]

@Neurodisco77 you should check how i speak to some people on my nzoz channels.

[danogzilla]

@AustralianAds yeah, that's why is pissed me off.

[crocodile2006]

Ass brought me here

[mubd1234]

I have a very good feeling that 276,000 views have been produced due to the thumbnail.

I can't believe that the view count doubled in 2 weeks!

[Netman0007]

Google says hi, 1985 Yellow Pages ad

[KudosCadet]

I paused at 00:09 before I read your comment... great minds do think a like

[Krokonwampir]

@KudosCadet That is not about great minds.I paused at 0:06 because i am gay...

[NevaXme]

I am ALSO guilty of pausing at 0:09...just saying.

[Voigt465]

I wonder of Singo had a hand in this ad. He was fond of chicks arses and the negative publicity didn't hurt business either.

[zigzag4d9]

that sounds like kevin bloody wilson



[shadster73]

Yellow Pages ad from back in the days when the ugly old bitch in the "Not. Happy. Jan!" ad wasn't an ugly old bitch.

She was an ugly slightly younger bitch and wasn't in this ad because of that fact.

[mubd1234]

I have a feeling that 143,000 views have been produced solely due to the thumbnail.

[AustralianAds]

@mubd1234 it works to my advantage!

[mubd1234]

@AustralianAds OMG 20,000 more views in 5 days

[drbelli]

@AustralianAds

yes, but this is getting old... ;]

[purplemutantas]

@mubd1234 I clicked on this vid due to the thumbnail. 

[BMcCue7]

@mubd1234 - It WAS a very provocative thumbnail...

[bryncomeaux]

[copmanhurstsucks]

yellow! yellow! yellow! cunt.

[stegatops]

Love these early eighties adds...........before political correctness was invented.

People seemed to laugh off their problems back then........today they just get pissed off......although......its only a commercial! ho ho ho.

[germanicelt]

@stegatops Even though it's only an ad, all the adds of this time had a similar theme. It reflected the consciousness of the people at the time, which has since been changed by perhaps their country being changed without being asked.

[wtf66611]

Extremely Lucky Bikeseat @ 0:08

[taylorswiftlikewoah]

hahahaha

[skatinghobart]

"runnin off your fuckin chair" ??

[Sonytimergogo2]

サムネイルに釣られたので踏んだ、後悔はしていない

[MattTheSaiyan]

This commercial is insane. I love it.

[MrShearz25]

That girl seemed pretty dam happy when her bicycle broke?

[wtf66611]

@MrShearz25 I was happy just seeing her on that bike.

[Flinklehurst]

"Like a kiss without a squeeze, rottininnle rocking chair" is the most profound line I have ever heard.

[JBofBrisbane]

@Flinklehurst @skatinghobart - Sounded like "A one-legged rocking chair" to me, but your versions are funnier.

[germanicelt]

Wow, all Aussies in this one too. If we didn't need multiculturalism then, why do we need it now?

[Moppy1988]

@germanicelt if we didn't need computers then, why do we need them now?

[germanicelt]

@Moppy1988 We did have them in 85.

[Moppy1988]

@germanicelt LOL! How many households out 1000 had them?

[ozoneocean]

@Moppy1988 Good reply to a moronic comment. Racists make me want to vomit (on them).

[germanicelt]

@ozoneocean. So if a society doesn't want a foreign culture invading them, then that's gotta be because of racism? Nothing to do with disunity of culture and compromise of sovereignty perhaps?

[ozoneocean]

@germanicelt Nope, hat's just justifying racism with different words, You have no point when it comes to Australia.

Now if you were talking about an old homogeneous country like Iceland that suddenly had 2 million people from Eastern Europe (or wherever) land on their shores, then you'd have a point.

But not with Oz. That's just silly.
