And for the National Right To Life Committee:

Seeing as it's from the Houston Chronicle, I doubt it.

The guy holding the sign is obviously blind. You can tell by his dark sunglasses and the shirt he's wearing.

To be fair, I think it's a tablecloth.

Nothing turns me on more than bigoted, sight-impaired, illiterate Texan women in tablecloths.

Oh dear god. They could have drawn a nose or eyes or something to show which way that head is facing.

The funny thing is that Qwantz

That is hilarious.
I was sure that was going to turn out to be an internet myth - but it appears that it is actually fair dinkum!

Is it just me, or did that last column have alot of double meanings too?
and it is not inappropriate to an organisation that’s looking to have a firm grip on Government spend.
OGC now has a staff of 564 with a head office in Norwich and other branches in London, Leeds and Edinburgh.
They’re going to get more column inches than they could ever have expected before. If I were them, I would be pretty pleased.

Did you also realise that "Norwich" is an acronym for "Knickers Off Ready When I Come Home"

And for the National Right To Life Committee:

The first one I'm all like...to EFL? wha?
The second one is one that I'm real familiar with. That is a billboard on Dale Mabry HWY (a main road in Tampa) that I see every time I'm driving home from work. I have many times made a face at it wondering what they mean. Considering eggs may actually have dreams at some point, (I don't know that, I'm assuming chicks dream like any other animal) I think that assuming that they pleasurably dream about getting cracked open onto a searing hot flat surface to be eaten by a being 300 times the size and weight of themselves is ridiculous.
I COULD be wrong.

Here's one I took in May and kept on forgetting to post here:
