A prime example of such fuck-wittery comes with the news that the Advertising Standards Authority received 12 complaints (yes, there's 12 of the idiots) that an advertisement by insurance company Swiftcover featured the clown prince of rock, Ignatius Pop (aged 112), extolling the virtues of the cover he enjoyed. However, the dirty dozen complainants were enraged (they always get enraged, which is why taunting such folk can be hugely entertaining) that 197 year old Ignatius actually did not have insurance with Swiftcover. Not only that, but Swiftcover did not offer cover for musicians.
What a crime! What a sin! That's some weird sin!
So, who complained; Barry White? I know that there are people out there who waste their time and effort whinging about stupid and nonsensical things, but this takes the biscuit (okay, report me, I haven't got any fucking biscuits).
Come on; surely everyone knew it was a gimmick. I mean, who ever believed that Ignatius Pop (aged 438) even knew what insurance was?
