there's an awful ad here in france that freaks me out...for mayonaise. this bright red cooked crab is so excited to find a jar of mayonnaise that he RIPS OFF HIS OWN CLAW AND DIPS IT IN THE MAYONNAISE AND EATS IT.

Not joking.

Self-cannibalism. Not cool! I'm always suspicious of happy pigs on the signs of bbq restaurants.

That's horrifying, but also hilarious. Here's one that freaked me out. It's two shrimp realizing that they may be eating their own children.

that's really funny....what also bothers me is now I watch so much kids tv all these cartoons have little pigs sitting down to hot dog BBQ feasts...and dogs and sheep being best friends and then the dog eats his can of mutton flavoured dogfood...i have too much imagination...
