Weird ad blogging

I always get these ads for $160K mortgage for less than $785/month! (What is that, $784?) They look weird. There is one with a long deer in the woods and the states are listed across its bloated, elongated body. There's one with a cha-cha-ing cactus with a serape with all the states on it (I dunno, some kind of state-based different rate. Like in Kansas you pay $783 and in Iowa you pay $782 and in New Hampshire you pay $784.99). There's one with a pig in the mud and one with a pig that is not in the mud. Riddle me that.

Perhaps the grossest is one of a gingerbread man that appears to be, ahem, doing something massively unhygenic in the glass of milk in which he has planted himself/been dunked.

Will internet ads ever get any better? When the cream of the crop is Adobe telling you where to shockwave move your sprockets, you know this will be a growth industry.
