a good question

I found that the advertisements in England were very thinker-friendly. Where most of the ads I see in America have a tendency to invade one's personal space by jumping out and stabbing the imagination, I found that the ads in England (or at least those I saw in my limited experience there) were more compelling toward a second thought.
I believe this ad was at a bus stop just outside of London, but at the local mall in America a few days ago, I couldn't help but wonder this question myself...

We saw that ad on a billboard off the freeway (or whatever it's called there) just outside Oxford. It spurred good conversation and kind of turned into a catchphrase for the rest of the trip. But I didn't have a picture. So, hurrah! It bugs me it's from AOL, though. :)

the art of conversation was killed when it became socially acceptable to start a conversation with "like" and end it with "whatever"

mle: I couldn't help but ponder that sign while at the mall; something about seeing all of those couples with one member wearing an ipod, and both wearing a blank stare.

mr. h: like...I dunno whatcher talkin' about...whatever!
