305 - Well–duh-

It’s half time in England vs France and I’ve just seen perhaps the most stupid advert produced recently. It is for British Telecom and the gist of the message is:

If we make an appointment to come and service/install/whatever then we will do our best to come at that time

Well! Isn’t that what an appointment’s very raison d’etre is?! What a mind-numbingly patronising advert.
