"An elephant seal wearing traditional Chinese lingerie" ... you expect me to top that?

Oh sure, they can make inexpensive cars, but it takes American marketing genius to figure out that a beautiful woman in traditional Chinese lingerie is going to really sell the car.

The policeman wearing white gloves performs the traditional Chinese dance indicating he declines the offer of sex from the elephant seal wearing the traditional Chinese lingerie.

The CEO wants his ugly daughter used in the car campaign. The ad company realizes she is so ugly she will drive people away. Solution: Elephant Seal costume.

Makes you wonder what their second choice for a mascot was.

New evidence of dangerous faults with North Korea's nuclear program surfaced across the border in China.

What's really sick is that the picture has started me be interested in traditional Chinese lingerie.
