Messenger Service Claims Speedy Delivery When You Need It

March 16th, 2008

Toilet paper obviously has a built-in humor factor (the toilet humor quotient?) to it, but this is actually really well done.

Christmas with the Colonel!

March 6th, 2008

Funny? For sure. Intentionally funny? Perhaps not. This is an actual Christmas record (with a back cover cleverly designed to look like a wrapped present, no less).

More Billboard Fun

March 6th, 2008
