1) That moth is larger than the woman. There is no possible reaction to a moth that size that could be considered an over reaction

2) Moths don't freak me out at all, in fact, oddly enough the larger they are (within reason) the less freaked out I am. You can see the big ones coming adn they're easy to catch if they get into your house

That last picture surely lies somewhere within the uncanny valley.

I love that the illustration is using how intoxicated your child will get as a selling point. It's not showing a calm normal looking happy child , advertising how it can stop a tantrum or something. He's got giant pupils and it's essentially telling parents "When you need to get your kid this fucked up, go with us"

I just noticed the totally unrelated * comment: "when gentleness is important." Wut? I think the advertisers were on drugs when they made this poster.

When gentleness is unimportant just shoot him up with morphine, I guess

It's actually really interesting and impressive animation...you know, outside of being terribly racist.

I just love the fact that I didn't know about Kia Ora until my late twenties. Thanks again, Spaced!

That Jello commercial over uses the tired L for R substitution more than the entirety of Lethal Weapon 4. And the comments are ridiculous and sad.

Not from this site, but this was the first one that came to mind when I clicked on the thread.
