A few months back I saw this creepy ad for some kind of toothpaste called Beverly Hills Formula active10. It shows a little boy walking into the bathroom while his mom is taking a shower. I have no idea what this has to do with toothpaste, but I figured it was a one-time, unfunny, attempt to grab the attention of people with discolored teeth.

But here's another ad from the same company with the same setup. This time the mom is in the tub. Tao at Why, That's Delightful! is equally perplexed and bemused by these ads:

Incest, fascinating dental information, a child from a Michael Haneke film, a woman who thinks she's doing porno, a very bad pack shot and the sort of grammar you find in a 419 scam. I'm sorry, but this has it all!
