"Rosno popalo!"
Russian for "Rosno [a Russian insurance company] fell down!" It's a series of commercials where someone is sitting in a car that is rear-ended, or slammed in the side, or covered in manure, or whatever. The person sitting, after realizing that he is all right, starts to cackle in laughter and scream in delight that his insurance company fell down. In order to understand the cultural context of the slogan, you have to realize (a) "so-and-so fell down" is the functional equivalent in colloquial Russian for "so-and-so is screwed" and (b) a good portion of Russian humor revolves around one person taking great delight at the misfortunes of his neighbor.

There was a German beer advertising slogan which showed three young men gathered around a park bench, each of them with a toddler or a baby. All the young men were obviously looking after their children, and each had a glass of beer in his hand.
The advertising slogan was 'Mutterschaft'.
'Mutterschaft' in German means 'Motherhood' - and was complimenting these young fathers on their 'New Man' domesticity.
But 'Mutter schaft' - the same letters but now read as two different words - means 'Mum is at work'.

I don't know if it's the same ad in England, but in Spain there is an ad for Mc Donalds "chicken fries"...
It has a chicken sat with some fries, and the other chickens go:
"Hey look at that chicken, he thinks he's a fry!"
and the chicken goes "Well maybe I do"
"maybe he does"
"yeah maybe I do"
and so on...
Not really a slogan, but it's soooooooooo funny!!!
