I think Kevy needs to put on that frilly pageant frock and make his own rick rolling video. I even volunteer to shoot and edit it! :evil:

I love the author's first statement:
"Who the hell is in charge of Burger King's advertising? Al Goldstein?" literal LOL

But I'll tell you, if it was a guy on the receiving end of that sandwich, I'd be hailing BK as awesome and eat there daily for at least a week. :evil:

While we're on the subject of illusions, the first one here is pretty nifty.

And then there's this. This is NOT an animated gif, it is a static image.

ok, the non-linked one was pretty cool, so I decided to properly link it.

Enjoy. Oh, take some drugs first.

Oops. Link fixed in my post now.

I love those optical illusions and was actually going to use some on a billboard we were considering. Ended up going a different direction with it though I still like the idea of a giant optical illusion on the side of the freeway.

You might want to post this in the texting while driving thread...

TeeTee, back when that movie Meteor came out, they plastered the loooong side of a building right abutting the 405 Freeway thru West L.A. with one of the first of those building-size graphic overlays. Hardly anyone had seen one before.

It was an overlay of a HUGE meteor hole through the entire building, knocking out like 14 floors, with a fantastic painting of exactly what it looks like going south on the 405 facing the soutbound lanes, and a different painting of the northern view for the northbound lanes.


Um, one multi-car pile-up later, and that advert was down within the week. I don't think anyone was killed, but WTF were they thinking to mess like that with drivers on the San Diego Freeway?



:cool: I loved that building for a week though. It was beyond rad.
