Okay, now I get it … it’s a fantasy world, a modern day fairytale … Big Beardy Bald Guy and the Five Dwarfs. Kind of sums up advertising when you think about it.

Why didn’t any one tell the guy with shorts to bring wash out jeans?
Why is the guy on the far right end on a blue milk crate, did he get to the shoot late?
What the hell is this picture about?
