  • jcm267, on 10/10/2007, -11/+3I thought the Bacardi Party train on the Green Line in Boston was hillarious (not pictured here)!
  • OverThere, on 10/10/2007, -6/+24The Baltica Beer one would piss me off soo bad.. Damn if I wouldn't be walking into a bar immediately after every bus ride.
    Ok, so I do anyway, shut up.
  • johniswierd, on 10/10/2007, -6/+1I agree that some of the best are missing but its a pretty good collection.
  • MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -11/+4I was expecting this to be lame, but after I clicked I was forced to eat my words.
  • Urusai, on 10/10/2007, -0/+102I remember a day when every square inch of Earth wasn't covered with advertisements. Since we didn't know what to buy, we mostly just stood around wondering how to enlarge our penises.
    • Nougat, on 10/10/2007, -2/+41I have these special glasses that run AdBlock.
      • bimtott, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Aren't those the same ones that Roddy Piper wore?

        "You see, I take these glasses off, she looks like a regular person, doesn't she? Put them back on...formaldehyde face!"
      • endlessoul, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3If only. Actually, come to think of it, if those existed, how much actual content would we see in the real world? Like, half my day would be empty spaces from lack of ads.
    • pintomp3, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10it's gotten to the point where we look to ads for entertainment.
    • bingobongony, on 10/10/2007, -4/+0Boo ***** hoo. You can whine like the little bitch all you want, but it doesn't adversely affect your life one bit.
      • Gir53457, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6My brother had a billboard fall on his car.
      • outsid3rNo17, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4My girlfriend left me after appearing in a TV commercial.
      • elnerdo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3An advertisement killed my family.
  • JEWestbrookJR, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8The shark made my day
  • chrisbasham, on 07/22/2008, -4/+1Impressive.
  • leejae, on 10/10/2007, -4/+3I liked the watch one.
  • Jokermx, on 10/10/2007, -4/+9Where's the Die Hard 4 one? The one that says "Yippe ki kay mother..."
  • FMDC, on 10/10/2007, -1/+69Look at that dude deep throat that candy bar
    • mortigon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+26the gross part is probably watching him take it back out
    • brad3378, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15Just imagine if explicit porn advertisements were legal
    • UnstableMind, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2*****, when I saw that I was thinking, what the hell would it look like if someone kept opening and closing those doors. I see a good advertisment for a Dildo company, lol...
  • grungemunky, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15These are certainly clever, however I am tired of being bombarded with advertisements telling me how much I "need" something. It is impossible to escape mass marketing today, and I find it reprehensible that billions of dollars are spent to encourage us to buy things which are typically useless.
    • racer108, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Alcohol, is not useless. Mcyucks, on the otherhand...
      • Teej, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1McDicks you mean. If you're gonna do it, go all the way.

        Maybe I should go to bed.
    • bingobongony, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Go live in a ***** cabin by yourself then.
    • DeFex, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2You dont have to buy their crap anyways. most of the cleverest ads i have seen, i cant even remember the brand that it was for.
  • dolemite5005, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3All i know is the minute I saw the title I knew I'd be seeing the "IWC Watches" and "Baltica Beer" ad posted in a blog about clever ads for the 500th time.
  • agann, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3More pics here:

  • MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -6/+1Damn Adblock...
  • mttiseman, on 10/10/2007, -2/+0very interesting
  • felix21685, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7number 9 is actually a Nikon.
  • Typhoon2009, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Very cool.
  • SuckMyDigg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6There's a good one in Des Moines that has a big pic of a golf ball on a tee and next to it says "Look out for women drivers".
  • liquidhalcyon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4This was cool...the first 10 times I saw it.
    Buried because I'm a dick, and don't feel like seeing the same crap over and over.
  • endustry, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11Yay for advertising! Yay! Yay! Yay! I just love advertising so much, I'm going to write about it on the internet. Yay! Yay! Yay!
    • bingobongony, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Because your job is so much more necessary to the world.
  • Ascendancy5, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3The one that says "find your match" is so crazy.
  • lonelymiddle1, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0theres a pretty weird one on the blue line in chicago for i think Westin hotels. some trippy flower blooming or something
  • diggdallas, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Dragons, the policemen knew, were supposed to breathe fire, and occasionally get themselves slaughtered.
  • KingBunny, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Wouldn't the "find your match" ad only work.. like... 0.001% of the time? Unless those 2 busses happen to drive next to each other all the time.

    This was more amusing when it was dugg like two days ago..
    • Gizza, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Do you only read picture books too?
    • ArandiaT, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0those two buses DO drive next to each other at least most of the time - RTFA
  • KingGorilla, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2That axe one is deceiving. Once you find out that public bus is filled with old ladies and hobos!
    • bingobongony, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Well, all Axe ads are deceiving., I have yet to see one Axe commercial speaking hte truth, that if you ever walked around smellign like Axe, that all women will laugh hysterically in your face.
      • Amablue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1My GF loves the smell of Axe, but I hate it. Just to humor her one time I put it on and when she noticed she stood motionless with her face in my armpit (I'm about a head taller than her). Not quite what they advertise, but still apparently mesmerizing.
    • robocop1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0That still sounds hot.
  • UncleCrapper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Very imaginative ads, but am I the only one that hates ads like the Tiernitos Dog Food and Axe ads that cover the entire bus, including the windows? As a passenger it is actually very difficult to see out of the windows, at least on the buses I've been on that have been similarly covered. Yeah, they put tiny holes in portions that cover the windows, but if I can't see in, imagine how hard it is to see out...
    • bingobongony, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1It is easier to see out becuase you are much closer to the windows
      • UncleCrapper, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1That's fine and all (actually it's not, you still can't see out of the windows very well, which was my point), except when you want to look out the windows on the other side or towards the front of the bus. Then you can't see *****.
    • ArandiaT, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Ever tried using venetian blinds??
  • poponegra, on 10/10/2007, -0/+216GB?!?
  • jeffity, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1These were as awesome as they were a few days ago on here.
  • Doomsan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The axe bus must be a thrill to ride on, enjoying the view so much.
  • TwwIX, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Haha,after the first few pictures i expected to see a "Goatse" style add on the bus doors.
  • silentseraph, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0the only thing I MUST SEE is salma hayek naked.
    pretty good ads though.
  • sickswaystop, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1this looks like something from photoshopcontest.com

    cant you guys tell *some* of these are fake?
    and maybe thats why we see so many ads, the entire world believes what they see.
  • peecha1985, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Here are more

  • Narfmaster, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Older than old. :(
  • witzkek1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0fabulous!
  • lewisjr, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0I wish I saw more buses like this in North America
  • Kmfan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0 Those are really cool. I love the one with the two people kissing and the guy walking his dog.
