I shudder to think what the coat hanger is really referring to with a slogan like that.

Is that first ad really too subtle for you?

The slogan should have read "If you don't have room to hang up your clothing in your small, Williamsburg hipster-yuppie apartment, then you might as well use the coat hangers to give random women abortions, since you wear wrinkled clothing anyway and the fetuses are just sitting there and you're in between seeing Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Arcade Fire concerts."

Alternatively, there's "Coat hanger is to your girlfriend as melon baller is to cantaloupe."

step 1: place vagina in comfortable upright position.

step 2: Insert straightened coat-hanger.

step 3: Whisk until desired consistency.

step 4: Bake at 350 degrees until right wing Christian nut job calls you a murderer and snipes you out from half a mile away.

Yeah, Mini-Storage makes all sorts of very liberal political statements in their ads, usually revolving around gay rights, Dick Cheney's gun habits, and the Democrats "cleaning house". It's pretty great.

No ginger kids were hurt in the making of Joe's Fancy Belts advertisements.

There was a billboard I saw the other day for Fuji xerox machines that seemed to be making the claim that a high quality photcopier was pretty much the same thing as a WWII war hero. If it's still up the next time I see it I'll snap a picture.
