2,345 Booking Idiots
February 21, 2015 2:08 AM Subscribe
After receiving over 2,300 complaints from UK television viewers regarding Booking.com's "Booking dot Yeah!" ad campaign, the UK's Advertising Standards Authority investigated and ruled that it was not, in fact, profane.
The actual complaints are not available, but as an example, this page has a comments section where viewers express their outrage at the "repulsive, innuendo-ridden" adverts.
Booking.com is an Amsterdam travel site, that in 2013, wanted to increase its visibility. They began the "Booking dot Yeah!" campaign, where the word "booking" serves as a minced oath for the f-word (another minced oath).
Ad agency Wieden+Kennedy’s Amsterdam location created the campaign, with the video spots directed by the ("infamous") film collective, Tracktor (founded in Sweden, now based in L.A.). Traktor's web site is Flash-based, but anyone can view the welcome page, which has a crazy montage video of mostly weird, mostly foreign commercials.
They hired John DiMaggio to do the voice-over for the first six ads in his best Bender-the-Robot/Jake-the-Dog voice.
Great ads, and a great ruling. Enjoy!

The people referred to as idiots don't just object, they made an official complaint because they wanted the ad to be banned. Most people who aren't idiots don't have the time or energy to complain about real problems that really affect them, let alone some inferred profanity that makes fuck all difference to their lives.

Seriously though. Is there enough extra time in life to waste pursuing actions based on irrational sensitivity to non-issues? Yes, I grant modern society leads to narcissism and all that, but there is a certain point when you have to agree a certain level of consensual reality and just realize sometimes shit happens.

I have few qualms about the word "fuck" and in general I wouldn't fucking mind if Americans (and Brits, I guess) weren't so fucking censorious about that shit, but I still think it's unreasonable to tell people that they should change their TV viewing habits to anticipate the possibility that a commercial that upsets them gets mixed among the shows they wanted to watch.

JoeZydeco: How many UK viewers complained about the word "frak" on the Battlestar Galactica reboot?
Fucking none*, because you can fucking swear as much as you fucking like on a British programme as long as it goes out after 9pm, cf The Thick Of It and Malcolm Tucker's "What is this? Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Cunt?" line. This goes for UK terrestrial channels, and not just satellite/cable.
That's programmes, though, in which people either know what to expect, because they've seen it previously, or because the continuity announcer prefaces the start of the show with an advisory warning. Ads are a different thing entirely though, and even though there are ads which can't be shown pre-watershed, the general expectation is that they'll be more restrained. This ad is the not-very-clever televisual equivalent of flicking the Vs at one of your parents while they give you a telling off, but feigning innocence because your chin is resting between your index and middle fingers.
*caveat: some people may have complained that characters were saying "frak" rather than "fuck".

You want 'fuck' in an advert? If it ain't Stiff it ain't worth a fuck is (to me) a hoho play on words. It likely was seen most in the places its intended audience frequented. It's honest. I doubt Stiff would pretend that they didn't mean 'fuck' but meant something else.
Stan Boardman led us up the garden path with his Fokker Joke. That was on live TV and he got into trouble for it, but watching it made me smile. Again, he can't pretend that he meant something else and the viewer has a dirty mind.
Putting an advert containing the lines Look at the view, look at the booking view. This is exactly what you booking needed on before the Paddington Bear film, or printing TOO BUSY TO FCUK on tee shirts sold to pubescent girls is just different.

Not sure we can infer that. After all, the adverts are still being shown in the UK too. Given the typically greater sensitivity of the US to sexual swearing, compared to the UK. (to the extent such thing is possible between nations of ~300m and ~65m people), it seems unlikely that there was no reaction.
But, of course, the UK is as at least as good at ridiculous short term hysteria about the media as any other country, so it's quite possible that we managed to stage this ridiculous overreaction without it having any US counterpart.
I'd blame the Daily Mail, but the BBC doesn't show adverts so the Mail probably didn't care about this.

Which requires QuickTime, so a lot of people can view the rest of the site but not the video on the welcome page (as they say, "we make films, not websites"). But for those who don't know Traktor's stuff, "Where's Your Head At" and "Baby's Got A Temper" are among their more famous music videos. But they mostly do ads, afaik, with a few in a more portable format here and probably all over YouTube.
