Grape-Zilla

Posted on November 27, 2013 by admin

No, I’m not talking about Godzilla Choking on a Giant Grape. I’m talking about some freakishly large grapes I got at the store the other day. I’ve included both an apple and a time for comparison.

Monday’s Are For Amusing Images (not salad)

Posted on November 25, 2013 by admin

First up, we have a product that was created by a someone who grew up in the ’80’s. No, it’s not ExLax, but it is a laxative.

Up next, the grammar police sent this to me late last week calling into question the header “Our Freshness Make The Difference”. ( Also, if you look closely, you’ll see a repeat of the Mile High Pie from week one.)

Lastly, we have a store from who-knows-where with an awesome department name. I would not be surprised if this was ‘Shopped or whatever, but it’s still funny.

Of course, this reminds us of The Simpsons:

Yes, it includes grapes.

No, I don’t condone whatever the hell this is.

Monday Feature

Posted on November 18, 2013 by admin

As some of you know, my work takes me into retail stores and I also spend a good deal of time looking at store flyers. I’ve given examples before. I have quite a collection of images that either I’ve taken myself, people have sent me, or I’ve seen online that amuse me. From now until sometime in the near or distant future, I’ll use Monday’s post to showcase some of these so called “amusing images”.

Let’s get to it… this is an image I took from a local supermarket’s weekly flyer. It immediately reminded me of the movie American Pie… I’m not sure that pie is filled with apple. Just sayin’.

Here’s a shining example of why adjacencies matter:

This is the face of the man who literally wrote the book on Hip-Hop

Posted on November 17, 2013 by admin

OK, well maybe not the book, but at least a book. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for his research sessions. I can picture him sitting in his den, merlot in hand, 2Pac on the stereo, pouring through research papers on the hip-hop. He probably sat in a cozy chair in front of a fire smoking the wrong kind of pipe.
