Actual ad from Sharper Image, their new massage chair. Draw your own conclusions. Is it just me, or...?

Yes, it does look like it. Sneaky subliminal messaging...

Whenever things like these happen I wonder of the artist never looks at his drawing and then buries his head in his hands when he sees the oh so subliminal message..

Because really, did nobody in Marketing or Public Relations notice?

Looks like a rather large













































Office chair, and you thought I was going to say it looked like a huge thingy
which by the strangest coincidences, I have a turnip shaped like a thingy,
and that is very ironic, because I have a thingy that's shaped like a turnip.

Oh dear....... I can't believe they didn't see that when they posted it up in the window.
The 'chair' was the second thing I saw, I am sure we all know the first was.

Even the wording is off.
"Human touch" and "Feel better". They could of done a better job both designing and describing.

I see that, and all I can think of is Woody Allen's "Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Sex (*But Were Afraid to Ask)"... Wowsa.

Whole new meaning to the word ergonomic.
Your Lazy-Boy couldn't hold a candle (or turnip) to this furniture.

Chair Envy.

pakled should see this one - he's have an appropriately snide comment I'm sure!
