“What Were They Thinking?” highlights products and presentations which just don’t make sense.
This poster is outside a computer repair businesses on Davie St. in Vancouver, BC. It has been there for years, as long as I can remember (and I’ve been up to Vancouver at least once a year for years and years). Sidestepping the question of what typo the white patch is covering up (and why they haven’t fixed it in a decade), the image itself always seems bizarre to me. What is she pointing at? What does her smile mean?
- Is that what a computer looks like?
 - Windows 95? You’ve gotta be kidding me!
 - If I stop smiling, I’ll cry because of all the viruses on this thing.
 - God damn this old junker is heavy.
 - Kittehs!
 - What do you know, you can beat Minesweeper after all!
 - I’m with stupid.
 - Come on, little guy. Reach higher. Pull my finger!
