Oh, the humanity.
A mellifluous co-worker just called my attention to the ad copy below and above.

And now this:
"Introducing the First Vibrating Power-Mascara by Lancome."
"New Oscillation. Vibrating. Infinite. Power-Mascara."
"Revolution: Vibrating power. For ultimate lash transformation.
Extends. Separates. Virtually multiplies."
Ôscillation (note the sombrero over the "O") Powermascara $34
And here's the kicker: the worst economic crisis in a couple decades and people are spending $34 on vibrating mascara.

The "First Vibrating Power-Mascara" is darn impressive stuff. But for my money it can't touch the Oral-B Triumph - the first toothbrush with an on-board computer.
