In the third century B.C. the Greek stoic philosopher Chrysippus died of laughter after giving his donkey wine, then seeing it attempt to feed on figs.
In the 21st Century Skink visited Belmont Forum, possibly to put shit on Belmontonians. What he saw will shock you. A competition to send Belmont your best smile, with some graphic design that suggests some hideous hysterical death caused by some toxic mould that grows on shopping trolleys. Every one of the subjects seems to be begging “Kill me, please!” with their eyes. It does seem to confirm my suspicions that the only smile you’ll get in Belmont is a photoshopped one. I was pouring shit on Belmont myself in the live show last week. Skink claims the website is even worse than this, however, like the La Chong offerings, I prefer to be above such links and refuse to look. I prepared my own as if I would be happy to go to Belmont. It’s harder than it looks. No matter what I did, I couldn’t look happy about Belmont.
Thanks for reminding me, TLA, that I must get back to Belmont Park sometime to check out the memorabilia inside the International Centre, and maybe a Belmont barbecue.

It was in the Belmont shopping centre that I first woke up to the reason why shopping trolleys are so ginormous.
It’s in order to use them to to force a space in the hordes for the fat arses that follow.
Now, it seems, they are no longer wide enough.
Bummer.
Oh! The subject is heads, not tails.
The fat heads who designed this promo will probably be wearing the biggest grins because, apart from possibly having the greatest facial areas on which to present them, they are the ones who will benefit financially from their success at manipulating the herds of dumbos who will join in.
I wanna puke.

the middle photo could be Bill & Hillary Clinton and Chelsea as the small one.

Funny you should mention Bill in a blog about teeth, monkeypants.
I’m reminded of that old chestnut that when asked if they would have sex with Bill Clinton, 90% of women said “No … not again.”

Good gravy. There’s something about a big smiling gob that takes you into Uncanny Valley.
I’m pretty sure I got the wrong ghoul, but there was one scene where something rolled off a table and a pretty young thing ducked down to pick it up…
AND UP POPPED A WIDE MOUTHED GHOUL RAAAARRGH!!!
My Google Image Fu failed me and I couldn’t find a pic.
ps: The top photo in the original thread needed more bukkake. But we all know this.

As if this ad wasn’t bad enough, now Medibank is having a crack at the ‘oversize grin’ style of advertising.
