Why is is that the guys who flog Oxyclean both in the US (Billy Mays) and the U.K. (Barry Scott) spend the whole advert shouting? Can our attention not be caught by the quality cleaning potential of the product? It has clearly been decided by the marketing department that volume is the USP of Oxyclean.
The noise level is definitely on the rise on all adverts come to think about it. Every advert break on television requires the volume to be turned down, and with good cause because there is nothing more shocking than having the side effects of the latest ED pill rammed down your ear hole at over 100 decibels!
This post shows that I have a general issue with noise. I like reasonably loud music whilst in a car but I get very annoyed when people try to hold a conversation over the noise. If you want to have a chat turn the volume down but you can't have your Cake (a band) and chew the fat (a synonym for talking that suggests you are eating). This whole talking over music thing is one of the reasons that as a younger man I became allergic to clubbing, that and also because my deodorant didn't offer the female attracting qualities that more recent deodorant adverts suggest (now you can use a spray that turns you into chocolate...amazing!). My smell of choice had a more repellent function. All in all keep the noise down will you!
