A French Connection You Don't Want To Make

It's almost time for the kids to go back to school. Your fifteen-year-old daughter wants some new perfume. She's been a good kid this summer so you figure why not? When your Sunday paper arrives you pick out the Marshall Fields advert to see what they're offering in hip new fragrances.

And what you see is this.

The brand is called French Connection United Kingdom. Get it? Pretty hard to miss the message they're sending. Hits you right over the head doesn't it?

Compared to this the Van Halen album For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge now looks like a cleverly sublime example of subtlety.
