Someones phone rang at smoko so I automatically came out with:

"That'll be the phone Reg"

(for those that aren't that old, it was an old Telecom/Telstra ad)

Which quotes/lines from ads do you find most memorable?

What about the 'just for men' ad when after he's gotten rid of his distinguished greys
the lady comes over and says
"You nailed me!"

"Tall Jan Is Malicious" Is the one that cracks me up, but plenty used:

"It'll change the colour of your day" - Crunchie
"Marge the Rains are ere" - McCains maybe?
"Help Me Rhonda" - Can't remember
"Claytons - The drink you have when you're not having a drink"
The one with Barry Sheen and Dick Johnson - "Anything else mate, how about a sock?"

Tall Jan is a good one. We have a "Malicious call trace" button on our phones at work, and I've vanalised it by writing "Tall Jan is" on a post it and strategically placing it above the said button. :lol:
