One Agency’s Snarky Approach to Parking Lot Rules

Partners_%2B_Napier_Shopping_ibelieveinadv.jpeg

Not all agencies are located in a city where mass transit is the main means of transportation to and from work. In some cities, believe it or not, people actually get into their cars and drive to work. And because they do, they need a someplace to park.

Making sure its employees have plenty of space to park and working to insure :squatters” don’t occupy those spaces, Rochester-based Partners + Napier placed several witty no parking signs in its lot to ward off non-employees.

The signs take pot shots at shoppers, partiers, interviewees of competing agencies, coffee shop junkies, cheapskates with threats of “ginormous” fines and towing. Funny stuff. Give the signs a read.

Bus Stop Series

« By the Bus Stop » vient de l’idée du photographe anglais Richard Hooker, passionné par l’arrêt de bus en tant que lieu de transition et de mélange social. Il a donc immortalisé à travers Londres les passagers de bus entre les années 2001 et 2005. Une idée simple mais très réussie à découvrir dans la suite.

PETA Says Veggies Give You A Big Cucumber

peta_firm_fresh.png

In an ad that caused on one YouTube commenter to wonder whether or not “PETA is secretly run by the American beef industry as part of a conspiracy to? scare people away from vegetarianism,” we are graced with a collective of delicious (or scary depending upon your viewpoint) vegetables dangling as if epic manhood ripe with veggie-fueled stamina which cause a chorus of women to sing, “Give it. I want it. I take it. I got it.”

This is, perhaps the funniest and, at the same time, most horrifying work we have ever seen from PETA.
