WARNING: YOU WON'T BELIEVE THESE HYSTERICAL VINTAGE ADS!

_{I am not sure if it is my love for sociology and psychology or my curious fascination for how others live and express themselves. But I love to look at crazy inventions, foods, culture, and old letters and documents of other people different from me. It is all the more entertaining if they are ancient or hard to find material. Enjoy the following clips I found digging around in the Internet vaults...}

nothing says tobacco products like a cute little baby...

I'm not touching this one!

are you kidding me? Who believed that crap?

I can't tell you how many times that has worked for me!

I want to be laid by the best! (note, cover the woman's head and her glass in the second picture and see what image you get!)

word to the wise: don't put your penis in the fence hole!

WOW

gee, I thought so....must have been a man who created this garbage!

don't you hate it when you're cigarettes change your sexual orientation?

any parent who has a young child would shutter to think of giving a gun to them...maybe our school shootings stemmed from liberal ideas like this one...

[roll eyes]

maybe this is the general time that anorexia began to become more of the societal norm..

she doesn't seem to be othered by the noise...

that says it all!

WTF?

this girl's panties turned her gay...

an ad targeting sex offenders...

group orgy anyone?

she looksabsolutely thrilled about wearing this...hope she got paid well.

this is for all you sexist pigs out there...

I don't want to know...

if you are beating your child,decaf coffee is the least of your problems...

just what we need for gandpa...go out and run to the nearest dealer!

don't forget to slowly fry the baby...

OUCH

murder scenes always make me think of soap...

I guess this was before California was making marijuana legal

Remember: DON'T go to the quack or the drug store...gee, I was just about to do that while I was getting grandpa his Thorazine!

this woman apparently needs to be beate to submission...

and apparenty she did...

what is more disturbing...the fact that marital abuse is blamed on the woman, or victim in the case, or spraying Lysol on your privates?

yea, like there are going to be a lot of teens going through chemo running around...

if you're dead, don't apply here!

another age-innapropriate ad with kids....hope this one doesn't cut herself...

explain "beating the Axis" to me one more time...

good luck in explaining this ad to your frightened kiddos...therapy anyone???

Absolutely incredible...

At least many of our modern ads are a bit more subtle when they're being disgusting.

"explain "beating the Axis" to me one more time... " WWII -- a good warning.

These are funny. I can't imagine wanting my baby to have a tan or giving them coke. :)

If hubs had a rating system, this hub would need to have an NC-17 rating! What the hell were these people smoking when they concocted these adds? Awesome find however.
