Who put the crack in crackers?

Aldi did.

At least, a so-called Graphic Designer did, with the hare-brained idea of mixing capital and lower case letters within words.


It's believed that Rosemary wasn't too happy with her box on display like that.

The bottom line

As Dennis A points out, some poster designers don't know their arse from their elbow.

School's out

Ontario High School is no doubt prouder of its 550 graduates than they are of their alma mater after it presented them with these classy diploma covers.

Of mice and men

'Good morning, Sir. Welcome to The Computer Doctors.

We'd love to get your machine working for you, but first we need you to provide a sample.'

Flushed cheeks

Remember the Lady Parts garage Jon C found in Palo Alto?

Well, just a few blocks away in Menlo Park he also found this showroom.


Most guys don't even talk about their pipes and ballcocks, never mind put them on display.

Phyllis Nan Sortain Pechey

Thanks to Greg L for sending in this advert from The Fabulous Bakin' Boys.

Though I'm not sure whether Major Johnnie would have approved.

You better Beliebe it

Not sure of God's purpose?

You're not alone. Take Justin Bieber's merchandising people.


Please. Just take them.

The fine print

Not to put too fine a point on it, there's a fine line between being fine and being fined.



I agree with Greg L: it wasn't the label designer's finest hour.

High-powered movement

I think it's fair to say that neither the advertiser of the cold remedy on the right nor the writer of the article on the left could have seen this coming.


But I get the feeling that the page layout designers knew exactly what they were doing.

Making the head lines

Nice guy, that Gregg Wallace.


You could never imagine him as a dickhead.

Or could you?

Completely Dottie

I agree with Jon C.

I think it's reasonable to expect that someone who claims to have spent over 25 years carefully dotting her 'i's and crossing her 't's should be more than capable of checking her newspaper ad in the Palo Alto Daily Post equally carefully before it went to print.

Rhinos memento

The Leeds Rhinos 2016 membership package arrived with this free gift.


I think they're trying to cash in on the craze for Justin Bieber memes.

Sweet Fanny Adams

It sounds like that's all you'll get if you buy this product.


Looking on the bright side, it's safe to say that there's no added sugar.

Warts and f-ck all

Have you ever wanted to know more about Human Papillomavirus?

No, nor have I.

But, for one reason or another, Jon C has. And, when he came across this publication by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, he discovered, well, not very much really.

The front cover showed promise...


But, from page 2, things just went downhill...


Until he reached the stunning back cover design...
