Frogma Scrooge Award

I don't know if this will become an annual thing - probably not, my attention span as a blogger just isn't that long -

BUT -

For the first and possibly only Frogma Scrooge Award for Advertising Slogans That Totally Don't Work -

I would like to nominate whatever diamond company purchased the entire length of a corridor in the nethermost regions of Grand Central Station. Most of the series was pretty standard-issue for the target audience (well-to-do commuters from suburban Connecticut).

However, there was one poster that I did notice & can't resist mentioning.

It depicted some sparkly gewgaw, with the caption:

"Suddenly, she thinks you're funny again".

Now does anyone else find that to be a rather disturbing sales pitch?
