Maggie Mania or Maggie's Maniac

We see lots of advertisements daily. By far, one of the worst out of 'em is undoubtedly..the Maggie Mania Ad.
remember it ? one guy and the maid throwing/messing up things and shouting about the maggie mania thing... and how its better than the normal rice and stuff...! huh!
u can only hear 'em screaming....and the worst is its translated Marathi Ad.... having the following lines... "Bandu laa mania zala re!" hehehe

what we need is sensible ads. The ones like Hutch (aka Vodafone) - A cute lill' doggie with a soothing backdrop of the whistle.....very pleasing indeed! Kudos!
there are lots of disgusting ads which do not help in increasing the product sales in any way....in fact they irritate u ... to the point that when u see that product in a supermarket ... u remember the irritating ad and the pain u 've been put through ... and i bet u would never buy such a product !
Mania-ad is surely one of them.

(there was no specific reason to post this. Neither am i interested in advertisements nor in Maggie in any way .... its just that i found that ad so irritating...that too ... it pops up every time i wanna watch the idiot box and try to relax wid a cup of tea. Huh! )
i am sure u 'll agree when u see that ad(which is ...very frequently!!).... :-P
