I saw this funny advert and thought it would be fun to find out what random and funny adverts other people have encountered.

Post your random advert in the form of an image or attachment (depending on image size) in your post.

It's funny. I used that head as a reference for modeling a while back.

I'm fairly sure I've seen that shocking ad at my local Burger King eatery. It doesn't really offend me, though, because as I see it the children who are too young don't catch the double meaning of the picture. It's bordering on the indecent, without being indecent... if that makes sense.

^^Makes perfect sense, kids understand the world in a very different way to adults.

Sexual innuendo
goes right over their head. Hence cartoons manage to communicate with themes for adults and themes for kids.

I think it's something a lot of over-protective people don't realise sometimes.

And sorry for posting this, it's ended up becoming an obsession with people I know:

Yup. There have been quite a few studies about it. There are also some pictures used as tests for this. Kids can't relate and see the adult side of the pictures because they have no previous experience or memories of these types of things so they don't see the 'whole picture' the way an older person would.

I laughed at how slow the modem is. 60,000 bits per minute! And that's 12 times faster than a competing product that the ad compares it to!
