How to Spoil Harry Potter
When the most recent Harry Potter book came out, there was a trend of using LiveJournal graphics to deliver… a certain spoiler. It’s pretty darn obnoxious, but if you’re not one of the people who had the book’s end spoiled, the sheer variety of spoiler-graphics is pretty amusing.
Evolution-Themed Beer Ad
It’s pretty entertaining. Wonder if they’ll air it in Kansas? (By the, the latest poll shows most Americans don’t believe in evolution.) Via Boing Boing.
Best Ads on TV Website
It’s embarrassing, but I really do like good commercials. Plus, they include British and Aussie commercials, which are often better than US commercials. (Possibly because commercials in the UK are broadcast between programs, rather than mid-program, forcing them to be more creative in order to get people to watch?)
Ahhh, thanks for the Harry Potter link. Brilliant stuff.
The best HP spoiler was definitely the one borne by the banner-sporting airplane. I didn’t even know that was still done. Makes me all nostalgiac for my beachgoing childhood on the Jersey Shore.
Ah, plane banners… My favorite was definitely sky-writing, though. I haven’t seen that in ages.
