Buy squashed corn!
Doritos, the triangular snack people, recently ran a competition for people to make a 29 second TV advert for their wares. I dusted off everybody's least favourite hen-pecked husband, Henry Pickles, for this slightly odd effort:
If you don't completely despise it, why not head over to YouTube and rate it before leaving a nice comment? If enough people do that it may not fail as badly as I predict!

The All New POP Station Show!
Many people have e-mailed me to advise that a current UK advert for Dairylea cheese-type-stuff features a POP Station. By using the dark powers of the Internet I've extracted this screen cap showing it:
Judging by the position of the controls and screen, it isn't actually a POP Station but a less authentic-looking PSP rip-off. The screen also appears to be grey, implying that it's a normal LCD display. The closest thing to that shape I've seen was a portable Sudoku player - but your guess is as good as mine.
Whatever it is, I'll bet it doesn't justify wearing huge headphones like that. "Wow, these monophonic bleeps sound so clear!"
In other news - I've removed the Ashen Action Figure advert from YouTube as the auction has now ended. Many, many thanks to all bidders - especially the ones who won (and therefore sent me money).
In the unlikely event that you'd still like to see the advert, I've stuck it on Revver as you can see below.

Bizarre Quasi-Merchandising of the Month Club
I've finally caved to the repeated e-mails from people asking where they can buy one of the action figures featured in an old video, and made ten more of the bearded monsters. Point your eyes towards this limited-edition advert (use of ears is also advised):
So, in the immensely unlikely event that you want one, run over to auction.ashens.com which attempts to sort out an Ebay link suitable to your current position on the planet.
In other things, it's the start of the month so Trailer Club 70 has been updated again. And I actually remembered to mention it here for once!

Arse Zone, more like! Hahahaha!
It's our old friends Tiger Electronics again...
And if that wasn't painful enough, here's a bit more:
In a word: Ugh.
