I-I-I like Aeroplane Jell-eeeeee

So I'm lying here, trying to wind down....and all that's going through my head is 'I got it made, I got it made fresh at Subway'. It's been a recurring problem recently, every time the ad comes on it's on a loop for half of the day.

Tonight, I thought I'd try to get rid of it by thinking of a classic jingle everyone loves...the Aeroplane Jelly ad.  Cute...timeless....and funnily enough, as it turns out, irritatingly grating when it's going through your head for the 67th time. Gah.

Thing is, I know these ads are meant to get stuck in your head, so next time you go out and feel a bit peckish, you drive past a Subway and think mmm, fresh sandwich.  Only it has the opposite effect for me.  I'll see the product, instantly the jingle starts up in my head, and I'm so peeved I'm wishing the product out of existence, as well as it's creator, the people that wrote and performed the jingle, their dogs and second grade teachers and everyone else who's ever been a part of their lives, just so I will never again have to have 'come in and see the good good Good Guys' taking up space in my brain.

And there are so very many of them.  Who could forget 'Lube Mobile will come to you, 13 13 32', and the even more brain-scraping little kid with the speech impediment repeating the number while simultaneously managing to look like he hasn't crapped in a week.  Or 'I feel like chicken tonight'.  And anyone who's ever lived in Melbourne would have been a victim of Franco Cozzo and his shops in 'Braaanswick, and Foot-a-scray'.

And then there's the frustrating characters.  Who on earth thought up Wallace Fairweather and decided hey, this whiny-voiced irritating moron could help us sell tiles?

So what's the verdict for you guys?  Do you think of them as happy little ditties that assist you in deciding where to spend your hard-earned cash? Or are you like me, who'd rather dig my ear canals out with a spoon, before taking to every jingle-recording studio in the country with an Uzi?
