McDonald's Sundial Billboard
So this has been making rounds on the nets since last week, so I am not being very original, but anyway. A nice use of sunny weather similar to this billboard made of metal pegs. Here's the full story.
Kebab Poster's Weird Pun
Somewhere someone has a weird sense of humor. An ad for an ethnic restaurant where they serve you kebabs on skewers that you can use to stab your date. Blah.

Squashed People Stop Traffic
Ah, long time no see. No fear, Billboardom is not dead, and very soon it will get Billboarder than ever. Gotta finish a few important things first. But in the meanwhile, here's a series of recent finds (from this post upwards).
This one is a neighborhood project in England to slow down street traffic. To quote from the website, "There are no zebra crossings in all of Summertown. Presumably this is because the City Highways Authorities doesn't want pedestrians to get ideas above their station, lest they start demanding equal amenities to those offered to car owners. So, to redress this balance, a fake zebra crossing was constructed along the central section of Banbury Road using about GBP20 of materials, including white tape, plastic drainpipes, yellow balloons, some old clothes, and two overripe melons."

Ah, how nice. Try these watches on for size while riding subway to work (or, more likely, a shuttle to your executive jet). Here's a similar idea done in print.
