In another wonderful case of “I don’t know why the F this exists” a billboard of Hitler saluting with the words “Hitler is not dead” was forced to be covered in Thailand. The billboard, which features the phrase in Thai, was in a series of advertisements for a new wax figure museum that was opening soon. After numerous complaints the owners covered up the billboard and apologies were soon handed out by the truckloads. I mean, if you are going to use Hitler as an advertisement, shouldn’t it be for a health care company?
What I find funny about all of this is: Imagine driving down the street. You read billboard after billboard. “Hey, maybe I should eat there, or maybe I should see that movie” and then… BAM! HITLER.
The sick part of me wonders who sees it and thinks nothing of it. I mean it is Thailand. The driver is probably too busy thinking about what little boy they are about to purchase or what type of dog they want to eat for dinner. Who the hell approved this? Every major decision like this is usually done by a group. How did a group of people think putting Hitler on a billboard was a good idea? I know, I know. You’re going to say that any publicity is good publicity, but at the same time- IT’S HITLER!!!! I don’t think anyone wants to be noticed because they have any association with Hitler, which is the primary reason you have never met a single person named Adolf. Except those blatantly racist parents in New Jersey that made the news because of it and had their children taken away from them.
Finally, why the hell do wax museums exist in the first place? Can you think of a dumber idea than lifelike alive/dead people? In Manhattan, I sometimes find myself walking by Madam Tussauds and there is usually a fake Samuel L. Jackson standing on the street with some dumbass tourists taking a picture with him. I have never been impressed with this crap. They charge you an arm and a leg to look at fake people.
If I wanted to look at fake people and drop money on it, I think I would rather go to a strip club.

Oh my god.
LessThanWalker you are a GENIUS!
The problem with strip clubs is that the really nice strip clubs have all the hottest girls but they give you the shittiest lap dances and don’t let you touch them. And those little hole in the wall strip clubs where a lap dance might get you a handy and sores between your fingers are so few and far between right?
Why don’t we open the worlds firs WAX MUSEUM STRIP CLUB! Where you can do whatever you want to the girls. Just think about it…Wax figures of the hottest girls on the PLANET. Wax celebrities, movie characters, CARTOON characters or just computer creations!…NAKED…and premolded in the straddling position. You pay $20 you have a seat on a nice comfy couch in a private room, you pick out the Wax girl you want, adjust your mesh shorts and someone carries her over and places her gently on your lap, and you are free to do whatever the hell you damn well please to the Wax figure until the end of the song, or until youre out of cash. When youre done. Someone comes and carries the Wax Model away, wipes her down with a little windex and off you go for a smoke.
Whatyathink?

Oh wait this was about inappropriate bill boards…
I’m starting to see Coca-Cola billboards in Spanish all over the place…see what happens when we elect one little bitty black president? First that happens and then suddenly…WAM! It’s over. And everything is written in spanish. IDONTUNDERSTANDWHATTHEFTHEBILLBOARDSAYS!!! For all I know it could say…”Every can of Coca-Cola has a syphilis infesed penis dipped into it before its sealed…now you know” And it’s really a Pepsi conspiracy to eliminate Coca-Cola and all of its english speaking customers. The end really is coming.

Oh that’s what that was. I thought it was a billboard for young Republicans or the RNC promoting their party values. I thought Hitler was saying, “Raise your hand if you vote Republican.” I see it was written in Thai so they must have put that billboard up in Los Angeles. It must have been Arnold’s idea. It was just as brilliant as his new energy plan for California.
