Link Lust: Feel like making link

Collegehumor seemlessly edits a car sales ad to contain a little more truth in advertising: Fuck You, Baltimore.

From old cars to Old Spice - Take the test. Yes, that's Bruce "The Chin" Campbell. Hail to the king, baby.

Chewing gum ad becomes Sino-Russia sticking point - a Russian ad featuring China's national anthem as background music "harms China's dignity".

Igor Kirkchi, general director of BBDO, an advertising subsidiary of Omnigroup in Moscow, which designed the advert said it was immediately withdrawn after complaints from the Chinese.
"It was a monstrous misunderstanding," he said.
"We bought the music and the rights to use it in an ad from an English company owning banks of music tracks intended for commercial purposes. It was impossible to determine that it was the Chinese national anthem by the name of the track."

At first, I thought he was talking about sex appeal. I don't have that. Then, I thought he was talking about money. I don't have that. Then, I figured out he was talking about experience, but since I don't have sex appeal or money, I don't have that either.
