At this point I've come across enough of these old ads to know that they are not all bad. I figured there should be a separate thread to post gems like “I'm not BOY”
Here's a pretty charming one I was reminded of the other day:

I love how intense and "mature" this ad wants to be.
I wasn‘t sure in which thread to share this because this isn’t laughable nor terrible, but this rules so much!

(5 months later edit: I have dyslexia so all this time I though this threat was for "laughable magazine ads", oops!)
@“穴”#p41049 What a great looking ad! The format is so convincing it took my mind a minute to reconcile what exactly I was looking at. Either way, glad you chose this thread

not a magazine ad but i didn’t know where to post this. found it in the box for a much simpler calculator while clearing out my gradfather’s house. never seen these before[upl-image-preview url=//i.imgur.com/ySBg05p.jpeg]
nothing like kicking back after a hard day of doing complex operations on the calculator at my accounting firm and sitting down to tackle some puzzles… and on the same device! it’s a calculator that says you mean business, but also you’re ready to have fun.
@“tombo”#p63034 ok but can it run drug wars?
I couldn't decide which of the threads to post this one in

praise Him
tan arms followers = catholic
blue arms followers = protestant
@““I thought lethal weapon was safe…yeah.””#p71160 rayman followers = atheist?
@“kory”#p71193 rayman fans are definitely going to hell (I don't actually mean this)
I always loved the paper mario magazine ad
