Ad Fail  
Congrats to that clothing store that mangaged lulzy fail! All it took was a pair of fugly, big glasses. People, WTF were you thinking? You don't want it to look as though someone had fun with a marker on your poster, do you? Seriously, at first I wondered where the mustache was. Wouldn't they want to draw attention to the clothes, not to the fact that someone doesn't know how to combine stuff? If they wanted glasses, they could have used a pair with more subdued frames.

Speaking of bad glasses/face decisions: biggest fail in that department I've seen in the windows of Apollo. Yes, they who want to sell you glasses. You'd think they show you pictures of people who look good with the glasses they're wearing. But just because the glasses look good, doesn't mean they look good on everyone. Not even if the people themselves look good. They should know that, because telling you if a pair suits you is part of their job, no?

And in completely unrelated news: Today I saw a car with a bumper sticker that read "getaway car" ^^. ...Although you could call that one ad fail, too. Because you don't want everyone to know, do you?

LOL!!! That's just hilarious!

Also: I have a hat that says CIA and I think some people think it's real which makes me roll my eyes because if I WAS part of the CIA I wouldn't be wearing a freaking hat advertising it! *FACEPALM

Well, it is a CIA hat, but I live in Canada, so they have absolutely no jurisdiction here, I usually wear hats on slob days so I'm in like sweat pants, with messy hair and stuff, I'm sure representatives of the CIA are way better put together. But, like as I walked back from school and was crossing this intersection this one guy gave me like this nod like "I respect you for what you're doing" and I just gave him the nod back. Lol

Heh, there's CIA merchandise?
I like how there can be so much meaning in a nod. There's doesn't seem to to be a gesture for thank you (or I just don't know it). That would be really useful.

I don't think it's official, but I had to buy it when I saw it. :)

Lol, yeah, I know what you mean!
