More adventures in scary ancient advertising.

while on the subject of throwback advertising, i must mention this ad for the jolly green giant.


I'm not sure what the story is here. the above incarnation doesn't seem jolly or green. his gigantism is immediately apparent however. no words. just that joker grin and a little magic. the magic speaks louder than words ever could. this man is much scarier than the hulk and the joker combined. he seems to be casting a spell or hypnotising me. some sort of erection charmer perhaps? i am officially at half stock, but i also threw up in my mouth a little bit.

"fo fum fi fee" ??? isnt that what the giant from jack and the beanstalk says? right before he tries to kill jack after smelling the blood of an englishman. doesnt matter because we all know how that one ended.
