An Ugly Ad

“Shop now, pay later” Those are the words of a catalog retailer. I see the ad to the right of the screen. It is one of the ugliest ads I’ve ever seen. This guy has a mustache and a strawberry nose. Letters are fastened to his teeth which he shows. I hardly think it is good marketing strategy to display his face that looks so ugly.

LOL, I'm chuckling about the strawberry nose - I don't think he'd persuade me to buy anything...

Interesting visual. Hey I caught a comment of yours on one of Russ S.' poems. You mentioned "planned obsolescence". That crap kills me. You probably are familiar with the light bulbs we use being able to burn for a hundred yrs. There is a bulb in a firehouse in ohio right now still burning, for over a century. CRAZY!
