I've always wondered what ads YWSers like, and I'm realizing I need more ads bookmarked. :P Post links (YouTube, images) if you have a favourite.

If you can, say why!

(I'm not so against the gender issue. It's fun :P )

For the sheer cuteness.

EDIT:So, I like kids/cuteness. And if there are funny ones, those too.
What I don't like are the giaant dance scenes for some product not even remotely related to dance like this:

This advert would have me in tears if I was particularly hormonal; the mixture of the visuals and the music and everything always gets me. I can still remember the exact product it advertises too, so I guess it works in that respect. I quite like the Tango spoof too (although I'm glad that they don't produce that particular product any more. Clear tango was awful).

I also really really like this, advert, even though it has pretty much no relation to the game it advertises. I remember seeing it on TV as a kid and being absolutely enthralled. I already had the game, but the advert has always sent shivers up my spine. I also love the fact that when they brought out the third instalment some ten years after the first (and this advert) the developers had integrated it into the game. I had a little bit of a fannish-fit when I saw that while I was playing. There's an entire section of the game just based on the opera house and the dragon :D
please grant me my small wish; (love me to the marrow of my bones)

Good lord....just pure gold. The rare times Youtube comments are worth reading. They make the discussion forum here look celibate!
