This is ostensibly an ad, but much more importantly it features a man firing multiple bananas from his nostril. The jingle's fairly catchy, too.

A job listing from the Georgetown student employment office that prepares one lucky student for working with many future douchebags. Unrelated: I am looking for a part-time personal assistant who is good at making sandwiches and quick with puns. Pay is $1 an hour, for up to 3 hours per week.
Use our image tool to make your own Via — er, Giavra — advertisement. Sez Jonah: “The product is so good but the ads are so bad. Would be great to fix it.”
Culture Buzz Sometimes the Internet messes up. Here are 23 ads that don't really fit with the article next to it.
Microsoft's Bing Jingle contest winner is the most gets-into-your-head-and-won't-leave advertising song since Toyota's “Saved By Zero” campaign. If you easily get songs stuck in your head, I don't recommend clicking through to watch this.
We'll never know why Microsoft decided to pull this ad for Internet Explorer 8. But we will get to see a guy that looks kinda like Will Forte slip in vomit.
Culture Buzz Male enhancement commercials have to be just about the most awkward yet greatest and funniest and trashiest things ever. Having said that, check out my picks for the top 12 worst male enhancement commercials. Special thanks to the Fresno Bee for introducing me to the magical Post-T-Vac pump, which gave me the inspiration and drive to create this list!
Let's see how this Russian ad handles the tricky landscape that connects ice cream and race! I'm sure it will be tasteful!
Computerdeks.com takes an unusual approach to marketing workstations for schools in this ad. You'll see why.
The triangle chip has an extremely subtle advertising campaign going on in Peru right now. Yes, there's a top version, too. Click through for both.
Capitalizing on the widespread popularity of the now-infamous shoe-throwing incident, eBay's new ad suggests using their services to get rid of your unwanted shoes. Can we coin new term for an internet meme that grows too fast, going from story to animated gif to Flash game to advertisement in less than a week? Can we call that “throwing the shoe”?
A public service ad from Georgia gets it so very wrong. I'm sure the good folks at the Athens-Clarke County (GA) Water Business Office meant well, but oops. (Thanks, tipster!)
This ad for Jim Slattery, who’s running for Senate in Kansas, walks the thin line between political timeliness and urine jokes. Voters are definitely getting wet in one way or another. The moment when the big fat cat starts dousing the tiny voters and looks down, laughing: A creepiness rating of 10.
We told you it was coming, and now it’s here. So, Microsoft is coming out with a Bundt cake PC?
Business Buzz Microsoft’s next ad campaign will feature Seinfeldian shtick. It’s the plight of the funnyman: Once the funny stops, there’s only advertising. Life seems more like Mad Men every day.
Greyhound wisely pulls their recent ad campaign after last week’s decapitation. It could have been worse, right? “Don’t lose your head in traffic. Go Greyhound.” Or: “Greyhound. You probably won’t be decapitated by a lone maniac while the other passengers helplessly stand by.”
A very sketchy Breyers Ice Cream ad with very under-age models. Are pedophiles responsible for a significant percentage of the ice cream market? Maybe Breyers thinks they should? Of course, this is a hoax.
A controversial new ad from Guinness beer alludes to a girl balancing a beer on her back while having sex. If you can balance a beer on your back, you’re having really boring sex.
This is apparently a bizarre ad for Extended Stay hotels, but it’s just kind of frightening. Who is this girl, and WHY MUST SHE LICK EVERYTHING?!
