Thanks to All Behind the Tiny Ads Jokes/Copy

The Tiny Ads Copy are an endless source of amusement to me, and I have never wanted to be advertised to so much in my life as I do at Permies. Over the months that I've been reading these tiny ads, sharing them with my husband, and marveling at their variety and hilariousness, I have become convinced that the writers behind them are not only really fun folks, but also geniuses who know everything. I've seen chemistry, Monty Python references, outrageous ideas, weird funny questions, pop culture references and slang from many decades, preposterous suggestions, snippets of song lyrics, everything. The tiny ads are one of my favorite things about this site. My highest compliments to those involved in coming up with those.

Thank you for making the world's best advertisements!

I completely agree, Rachel.  Just saw this one:

 "Please buy my thing and then I'll have more money:"

So hilarious.  My husband loves them too.  There is a post somewhere out there in permie-land from Paul Wheaton and apparently he writes 99% of them. Pure genius.

I love reading them too. They make me chuckle or roll my eyes or occasionally scratch my head in confusion but they are pretty effective at getting me to at least notice the thing they are advertising.

HAHAHAHAHA! Just now saw this one at the bottom of my screen:

Semper Ubi Sub Ubi. Latin for "Always Wear Underwear." tiny ad:

And almost DIED. (Am a Latin teacher!)

Shades of Sartre!
