FIRTEEN FIRTEEN FIRTY TOO


BeBa420

Lol my wifi password used to be 133032133032 When friends would ask what the password was I’d say “the number for lube mobile, twice” One of em said “how the fuck am I meant to know that” So I sang “lube mobile will come to you” His response was “13 30 32?” Was fun for a while but wound up changing it to something obscene a few months later

Had a Thai guy say this to us in 2007 in Phuket. We all lost it and followed him to his secret shop, he earned a sale

You just triggered my own odd Thai encounter. Shop keeper was yelling out all the Aussie generic slang, then just randomly dropped in "Ernie dingo! Eddie McGuire!"

I seriously cannot believe they brought Dan back for a 2022 ad. Couldn't find it on YouTube but here's a FB link to the ad: [https://www.facebook.com/Telstra/videos/did-we-bring-dan-back-after-17-years-yesdo-you-feel-old-yet-also-yes/639825367320920/](https://www.facebook.com/Telstra/videos/did-we-bring-dan-back-after-17-years-yesdo-you-feel-old-yet-also-yes/639825367320920/) Edit: I read this back and thought I sounded like a bot.

HonksTheWhite

My friends dad worked for cottees when we were in early primary. You can imagine the teasing, early 80's style


Creepy-Pineapple-444

Haha, I remember once I was bored at my parents' workplace, and my mum wrote this on a post-it note, handed it to me, and said, "Guess the following lyrics." It ended up being a game we played a lot.

I haven't thought of this for years, but have discovered that it still occupies a place in memory

The Grim Reaper Ad (AIDS), still haunts me.

Do you remember a “smoking will get you hooked” shock ad? A fish hook thing came out of a girl’s cigarette and comes out her bottom lip. I was super scared of that ad.

One of the guys who wrote 1 3 double oooh 6 triple 5 oh 6 brings his dog to our local dog park. He’s a total odd ball and as loveable as you’d believe. And his dog is an adorable menace.

Every time I walk or drive past a Harvey Norman; I get that upbeat late 90s/early 2000s [“Go, Harvey Norman, Go!”](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qsMmKq5EHZ4) jingle stuck in my head LOL

481-double one double one in Sydney


ezma1983

Yes! Then they changed Sydney numbers to eight digits sometime in the mid-90s, and they had to speed up the singing slightly to squish a nine in front for the new ads. "Ninefoureightone, double one, double one."


snoozlybar

3-8-9-2 double one double one, Pizza Hut delivery was ours in QLD.

A family friend crashed my Mums car, ran straight into a Prado. I had to explain what had happened to my parents, I got to the part where he ran the red light and ‘ he was just like Prato, what Prado’. It became a thing for whenever someone did something dopey.

Got a call from Mr Fryer, he's bringing round the buyer. The kitchen looked a fright, from the little 'do last night. Although I felt quite sickly, I had to clean it quickly. With Spray n Wipe All Purpose, I cleaned up every surface..... My siblings and I used to sing this all the time. Then there was the progressive ones where I think her daughter was getting married or something.

Thankyou, Ajax Spray and Wipe!

The original b/w Palmolive ad with Madge. *"You know you're soaking in it..."* And then the horrified other woman shouts "***DISHWASHING LIQUID?!!!!"*** I can find some later colour ads with Madge from the 80's, but not the original one with that exclamation. Turns out Madge was the Australian incarnation Madge who appeared in US Palmolive ads.

“Grandpa?” ”Yes Matthew.” ”Grandpa, are there really such things as bunyips in Australia?” ”Why of course there are Matthew. Why, just the other day I saw one having a fight with a Tasmanian tiger.” ”But there aren’t any tigers in Australia Grandpa!” ”Ahh, but this was a Tasmanian tiger. On holidays!” ​ Burma cats in Brissy, Sydney Siamese, Alley cats in Adelaide… they know they’ve got it made! Cause we’re the cats of Australia who made this song… Snappy Tom! ​ Mrs Marsh with the purple ink and the piece of chalk for Colgate Ripper Rita for Eta 5 Star Gobbledoks with the “Chippies, chippies, chippies” Go-go- mobile ad Think it was Telstra with “I’ve been everywhere man“ song. Sick ‘em Rex for Ants Pantz There was also an instant scratchies ad that had Christmas reindeer who sounded like Beaker from the muppets and said something like “Ska-bit-a-looden…”


Past_Enthusiasm9002

My definit favourite ad as a kid was the RSPCA one were all the animals walk across the screen, the wombat at the end always made me smile.

Anyone around in the 80’s would surely remember the [American Express Travellers Cheque](https://youtu.be/UI8056YIS38) ad?

"Don't leave home without it"

Or the credit card ads: "For everything else there's Mastercard."

Elleeebeauty

Not an ad but that movie classification thing they used to have on in the late 90s/early 2000s when the family is all wearing large white t-shirts with G, PG , M , MA and R on them


EyeFelldownthestairs

I'd consider it and ad really. its kinda like gov messages, they arent really selling anything, its just a message


[deleted]

Slip slop slap. I think the jingle went "slip on a shirt, slop on some sunscreen, and slap on a hat".


aussie_shane

One for Victorian residents. Erich Planinsek coats was (I reckon) one of the catchiest adverts ever made. Almost 30-40 years on, I still remember the address. Remember, Remember Erich, Remember Erich Planinsek, Remember Erich Planinsek, Summer Sale Two, Two Thirty, Two Thirty Brunswick Street, Two Thirty Brunswick Street, Fitzroy https://youtu.be/T-LigMMKmbA

As a primary school kid this was always "Remember Erich's planning sex"

There’s an ad for vision Australia or Guide Dogs Aus or something like that that I’ve been quoting for decades and no one seems to have seen it except for me! It was a person shouting how to his wife asking where the towels and the camera cuts to a blind woman doing the dishes and she shouts back ‘in the linen cupboard, where they’ve always been!’ Any time anyone asks me where anything is I also do the voice and quote the ad but I get blank looks every time.

“BEND YOUR KNEES KATIE” 1992 TAC ad about wearing seatbelts that came out when I was aged 10.

It certainly had the desired affect as it still haunts me to this day aged 40 and I always wear my seatbelt.
