I sent an email in yahoo today, and on the *Message Sent* screen, I saw an ad that made me giggle, that I thought I'd share.
It was for that new weight-loss product, "Sprinkle-thin". The ad showed a photograph of a smiling bbw in a bikini, which is what caught my eye (I normally ignore the ads on yahoo), and it said "Take Sexy Summer Photos", and the photo miraculously changed to the same head on a thinner body. What made me giggle is that the woman looked so happy and pretty as a bbw, while the thinner body just looked weird. I know this was because it was a poorly done morph, but....I felt like I was in on a secret joke...that these people don't realize that fat girls take "sexy summer photos" all the time, without using their silly product, and without being thin! Imagine that! I tried to save the pic to post here, but it was a micromedia flash thingy and by the time I thought to do a screen save, I had lost the ad. Oh well.
Another odd aside that also made me smile...there was another ad for yahoo search that said "How many spiders do you eat while sleeping?" The answer: none, verifiably. My tummy is relieved. God bless Snopes.
