Funny, odd, or the most absurd ads you have ever seen....

@jamespowers - pumpkin soup is lovely. I prefer pumpkin cooked as a savoury veg rather than turned into sweet pies and the like.

Sometimes you never know what you are missing until you try it.

James like Lolly says, pumpkin soup is delicious! I have it often, with a little bit of black pepper and a dash of cream! YUM!

Oh, I am one of the converted---after tasting it.

What I didn't understand is why Garfield had a liking for lasagna..... of all things..... why not pizza or.... spaghetti bolognese .... why lasagna? ( I still don't lol)

Probably no good reason other than the author, or someone he knew loves lasagna. It could also be because lasagna is not as obvious as pizza. Obscure references are good in just about any form of literature or art. Did you know that Snoopy had a Van Gogh and then, after his dog house burned down, acquired an Andrew Wyeth? How obscure is that?

Back to the subject of ads.

Ladies. Do yours float??

 

[scottyrocks]

With or without 'floating action.' I wish the ad was big enough for me to see what 'floating action' actually is.

Yes, I noticed this right away. How could this not have been drawn intentionally? It certainly does draw attention, and that's the point of advertising. With all the lax rules regarding children back then, could this have been just fine to do?

I'd like to teach my dogs to cook for me, actually.

Looks more like the dog is getting "dressed" for dinner with that title.

Heck, the collar thing worked for Elvis. Can't get any more American than that!
