A couple more subverts, and advert-related snippets

Maryland cookies. "More important than your child's future. (If you're a woman, that is.)"

Cheese strings. "You will be so infuriated by the nonsensicality of this advert that it will actually be physically painful for you to remember the product's name, but we don't care, we've been paid."

Incidentally, can anyone remember the name of that artist in the sixties who did very detailed silhouettes of people against swirly psychedelic backgrounds? Same sort of vintage as Kay Nielsen, but I don't think it was her.

And is anyone not immediately charmed by the idea of a car you can drive up in, get out of and then pick up like a piece of cloth and take away rolled up under your arm?
