I’m going to be honest here: The internet has some pretty crazy stuff. There are websites, profiles, glitches—and one of the weirdest, ads.
There are ads for lots of strange and random things. Some ads are downright creepy. So share a weird ad with us! (We pandas like weird things.)

A Classic
If you ever want to see creepy ads, just look up some vintage ones. They have aged like the bread in the picture above.
Companies and people definitely had kind of a weird way of trying to sell their product.
What do you mean "had"? They still do. Some today are just as weird or more so. Just wait for 50 years and see what people are calling weird and creepy today.

Because Innocence Is Sexier
oh man, i remember that stuff...forgot how podophilic the ads were though
Damn pod lovers! Coming over here loving our pods!

Dude this ad is twice as scarring as 90% percent of the stuff kids will ever encounter on the internet
Why is his teeth in his eyes? I understand the hollowed-out eyes, but your mouth doesn't go that far up.
It's a filter that puts copies of ur mouth over ur eyes, I used it on myself once and even creeped myself out a bit lol

guys this looks like crowley from supernatural . crowley king of hell .
Keep Her Where She Belongs...
"Keep her where she belongs"....Where? Naked, on the floor, watching shoes? What are they selling? The point here mystifies me.
I don't know about you, but I know that's where I belong
Load More Replies...I Was Looking At Memes And Found This. I Kinda Feel Like It Belongs Here. It Says “And Still The Villian Pursues Her”.
When a mummy and a stork love each other very much ... which involves an umbrella - don't ask me why, it just does, okay?! Sheesh, I've been dreading this day ...
Spoon
BTW THIS IS NOT MINE ITS FROM RAMEN NOODLE I PUT THAT IN SOURCES BUT ITS NOT MINE
Oh billy, you have an erection? Maybe the school nurse can slap you in the d**k and make it feel better WTF
For anybody else struggling to read the fine print, here's a clearer copy: 617a3b28cf...7dc90d.png
I'm curious now...I'm wondering... was this a huge problem for those school nurses? OMFG!
This is a joke from Viz Comic: https://twitter.com/vizcomic/status/690691425843867649?lang=en
Loved Viz. The clue is in the address - Fulchester, and of course the absurdity.
Load More Replies...This has got to be a joke ad right? Look in the lower left the quote says "It's a spoon!"
It is. I showed it to my husband and we're both in stitches.
Load More Replies...But 'School nurses have known for centuries that a sharp blow from a cold spoon is the best way to tame an unwelcome erection' is....
What
"Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Smith! It's a bacon double cheeseburger!"
Well, dang, my children would be chicken pad thai and green tea boba then.
Load More Replies...your child is what you eat! you eat your child!? kronos and his kids are coming back!! no!!
Cocaine Toothache Drops
When I was a kid, my mom had a small glass vial of paregoric. It was a liquid that you smeared on the gums of teething babies. It wasn't until I was an adult that I learned that paregoric is literally an extract of opium. (This wasn't a holdover from the 19th century either. The most modern version of paregoric began production in 1965.)
It's amazing the drugs that were legal back in the day. Cocaine was in a lot of things, even just in plain water, Lithium, a mood stabilizer, was in 7-Up. The Bayer Aspirin company patented and introduced heroin to the public. Morphine was given to cure opium addition. Live and learn -- or have we?
I do not see this ad as weird or disturbing unlike almost every other one in the list .. it is important to understand that at the time cocaine was seemed as miracle anti-pain drug, there were not so much of effective painkillers like today.
Well, we could say that for almost anything. Arsenic was popular in Victorian times. Doesn't make it less disturbing, surely there must have been side effects.
Load More Replies...Gee, Dad You Always Get The Best
"Marlboros.....the Daycare break that refreshes. Because we can't hook em' young enough." Ugh.

This is actually a good ad, disturbing in the way that it’s supposed to be
More PPL should notice about how perv among us is it is full of, wap,horny and those ones (rooms) should be avoided I'm just telling yall 😎👍🏾so be careful
Look I'm A Mother
"Look, I'm a mother!" He said while thinking "These people are nuts."
This kind of makes sense for the realities of the time.... the man used to make all the purchasing decisions but there were still products aimed at women. Guess they decided this was the best way to get the man to empathize with his wife?
The copy illustrates the man realizing that his wife works hard, but the washing machine makes her job easier.
Load More Replies...The ad says that this washer can do a whole week's wash in less than an hour". Really? Three kids and two adults....hum.....I doubt any woman ever believed that part!
Banks Hate Women.
Many women today don't realize this, but in 1974, women finally gained the right to get a credit card in their own names with the passage of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974. The law made credit card companies issue cards to women without a husband’s signature, which gave more women power over their personal finances.
My grandmother had all her credit cards in her husband's name, even many years after his death. (ie: Mrs. John Smith.)
Load More Replies...Cellophane (Aka A Baby Suffocater)
Today this ad would spark numerous news reports about dead children and plastic bags.
Wtf
True today too - it doesn't matter what you look like if you stink like BO
Don't I know it. Never should have bought that deodorant off Bowser. I just got crushed by a stampede of Great Danes.

Oh come on - we all turn into cavemen/cavewomen at the first whiff of a juicy armpit.

Sexism A La Carte
Honestly, as much as I despise sexism and misogyny, it would totally rule if I could get a pretty man to take care of me and all I have to do is cook and clean. I hate working and love to bake. Sounds set.
Many people are stay-at-home wife/husband, no problem, if it's how they choose to split responsibilities. If it's a duty automatically placed upon them cuz of gender, then we've got a case here.
Load More Replies...Clothes For "Chubbies"
Eh?? I get having larger size clothing available, but the girl in the pic doesn't look "chubby" at all
There were also nearly identical ads for "husky" boys.
Load More Replies...I remember pouring over these ads when I was a kid, hoping my mom would get me some clothes from there! Seeing photos of myself from 'the olden days' shows that I was not chubby, just not as thin as my sister - who was much thinner! I grew up thinking I was fat when I wasn't (until many years later). It's a hard self-image to have growing up. But my sister struggled just as much due to the comments from people and advertisers about being 'skinny'. Mom used to buy me 'diet foods' in the 5th grade and bought my sister special foods to help her gain weight. I learned later in life that one should NOT make comments about other people's body shape or appearance.
Your mom meant well, but it left a lasting impression that there was something wrong that needed to be fixed.
Load More Replies...The sizes we know these days have been altered back in the eighties. A size 16 uk pre chandelier was 28 waist and a 39/40 hip. This is now a size 12.
Yes, I Hate It Too
smh... this is sexist and it makes it seem like the woman is his slave which is also wrong
That was the point of the ad. This is why being a feminist is important.
Load More Replies...This is typical of ads while I was growing up. Is it any wonder we girls' ideas about love and marriage were a bit askew?
omg, i thought i was the only one to upload my memes and pics like that. glad I'm not alone in this stupid 700 pixel thing
I would never buy from this company I'm so angry. Does it still exist?

You're thinking of Cool whip. Reddi-wip actually is made of cream.
Load More Replies...Oh, of course, your husband is going to abandon you for his mistress if you don't buy this product. Younger women today have no idea what a sexist world we older ladies grew up in. Everything was supposed to be for the man's benefit and you better play the game. (ps: I never played the game and it got me in a lot of trouble.)
Seven Up???
YES! (Natural) juice contains sugar AND nutrition. This is just sugar and water.
Load More Replies...why would you give your baby soda it has too much acid and kids should wait untill they are at least todlers
"Small beer"(low alcohol content) was commonly given to children., but I think that was before the days of the ads above.
Load More Replies...I thought that was beer for a second I was like they will dye but they will still dye I don’t think they are supposed to be drinking 7up
That's what my mom always gave up when we had an upset tummy. To this day I can't stand 7-up! Yuck!
*gave us, not gave up! Altho, a lot of the time mom did just 'give up' on mothering. LOL!

Ah, to be scrolling through this post in the dark and feel that shock.
Load More Replies...Well u succeed in scaring me. But I think that's the point of this post. :)
Load More Replies...Hold Up, What
Indeed. Because apparently in this ad women are on the same level as pets.
Load More Replies...this is wrong for 3 reasons. it's sexist and well making your wife a slave and brief nudity
Nothing wrong with nudity as long as it isn't sexist.
Load More Replies...I read some of the listings to train the wife... the worst one was the last ( It was: Greet you at the door wearing nothing but cellophane wrap) What is wrong with this ad maker? This is awful.
did you know that older aprons are so fancy because typically, the woman would have to attend the party AND cook the food.
It’s blurry, but lemme try to make them all out; 1. WHAT? 2. Massage your feet?? 3. Serve you ?? And ?? ?? 4. Sit quietly while you ?? ?? 5. I give up.
*UPDATE* I found a less blurry one, and the last one written down concerns me. “Stand at the door wearing nothing but cellophane wrap”

Load More Replies...lol but if people can post trump jokes without being yelled at , people should also be able to make biden jokes too! come on guys, people have different opinions! Pls no downvotes! also trumps eyebrows lmao
I agree people should be able to say their beliefs without being yelled at, I only yell at people who try to oppress peoples opinions and beliefs
Load More Replies...Yes, I’m just proud people like my jokes
Load More Replies...Maybe rephrase it as "If you're offended, let me know so I can leave it and think you're an idiot."

yep i am no longer using my imagination to build worlds with legos because of this
Because you take heroin? Or because you watch TV? Can't tell from the context...
Load More Replies...because of the blurring I thought he was jerking of in the streets then I noticed the belt
I'm wondering if this is some kind of weird parody ad. I don't think Lego would go this dark
Most people see an image, assume it's real and don't consider that it may be a parody.

Sage Advice?
I've run out of fun on this theme. These (not-so-old) sexist ads are breath-takingly awful!!
The gross misogyny is a really easy way to find something that fits the category. In recent decades it's gotten slightly less blatant. Another low-hanging fruit would be racist ads from the early 20th century, but those haven't showed up here.
