If It Looks Like A Duck...

I found this picture hiding on my desktop, which I took at a cabin we were staying at for a certain couple's wedding.  Click to enbiggen.

In case you cannot read it, it says "Ashtray.  A smokin' great deal."  Which, in my opinion, is just weird.  This is obviously an ashtray.  Were the manufacturers tired of answering calls asking what their product is for?  And if your product needs to have a label explaining what it is, adding a marketing tag line seems less than productive.  Maybe Ford needs to make the all new "2021 Car: Gets you from here to there".

Call Now! Operators Standing By!

Chinese Penis Trap?

We received a shipment at work and I noticed this icon on the box.  Click to enbiggen.

Now I'm certain that is supposed to indicate that two people should lift the box.  But that's really not what is looks like.  What it looks like to me is that Justin Timberlake and Andy Samberg have decided to do a sequel to "Dick in a Box".

Update:  I showed this to my coworker, Allute, and he told me that this post should have been named "Dock In A Box".  And he is 100% correct.

The Military Has An Interesting Signing Bonus

Mrs. Griz sent this to me a long time ago and I just found it again.  Click the picture to enbiggen.

No, this is not actually a request for women to join the exciting lifestyle of a military spouse as it first appears.  I guess they are trying to hire military wives to do... something.  Or maybe not.  Perhaps it's actually asking for women to become part-time wives.  What I'm saying is that this ad really isn't clear.

Deal Of The Century!

I Think That's A Protest Bus

I saw this a couple weeks ago.  I don't think you need to enbiggen this one but feel free if you'd like.

You know, the right angle changes everything.  Like in this example.  The placement of that sign really alters the vibe this bus is trying to put out.  Or perhaps the bus is tired of dealing with the little brats all day and just wants to make its feelings known.

English As A Third, Maybe Fourth, Language

I purchased a USB fan for camping.  It works quite well, however this is the box in which it came.  Please click the picture to enbiggen.

I really want to know how many times that was run through Google Translate before this popped out.  And don't miss out on the "Moisture Proof" badge at the bottom.

Alcohol & Tobacco Machine?

I saw this on a gas station entry recently.  Clicken to enbiggen if you wish.

To be clear, I agree it is important to ensure that minors are not purchasing or using these products (one has to survive more life for those privileges) but why did they stick "ATM" at the bottom of this sign.  Those are two completely different concepts they are trying to convey.  Or, perhaps, it is the ATM that has the concern and enforces this policy.

For Muggle Use Only

Not suitable for flying?  NOT SUITABLE FOR FLYING?!?  Well, bigwigs at Sabco, you have just lost a customer.  Good day.  I said good day!

More Bang For Your Buck

My sister snapped this picture and sent it my way.  Click to enbiggen.

I haven't priced out bangs lately but $225 per bang seems pretty reasonable to me.
