I can't believe no one has said it...does this mean Syphilis is the New Black?

Syphilis is the new heroin. I've said it before and I'll say it again. In fact, that's my display name on my blog. So now I say to you all, I told you so!!!!

You've got to be kidding me.

I can just see it now, the catchy "Got Syphilis?" billboard and magazine campaigns featuring a host of infected celebrities through the ages: Leo Tolstoy, Benito Mussolini, Al Capone, Lester Bangs, Scott Joplin, Karen Blixen, Howard Hughes...

Jen, I am happy to report that on my way to work, one of the McDonald's I passed displayed a sign proudly announcing the return of the McRib. How's that for timing?

I tell you, what will they *not* put on buses these days? Oh my.
And McRib... that's making me McSalivate right now!

I wonder if those people on the bus know they are, in fact, "riding The Syph Bus." Think they might consider finding alternative means of transport?

And here I thought we were just bringing sexy back.

OMFG! That is hilarious. I so hope it'll come to a city near me! Will it be a stadium tour, do you think?
Posted by: Shelly | October 22, 2007 at 09:28 AM
That made my morning! Thanks for the laugh.

Syphilis... it's what's for dinner.
With construction officially underway, IKEA West Chester will open in Spring 2008
The 339,000-square-foot future IKEA West Chester and its 1,400 parking spaces will be built on 28 acres as part of a 56-acre parcel along I-75 at the southeastern corner of Allen and Muhlhauser roads, south of the Union Centre Boulevard exit. IKEA West Chester will reflect the same unique architectural design for which IKEA stores are known worldwide. IKEA also will be selling three acres that will be available for complementary retail and restaurant uses.
SWEET!!

I was wondering where syphallis went. I assumed it was stuck in airport security.

Oh public transportation advertising - I've see a few good ones in Pittsburgh, PA but nothing advertising syphilis's big comeback. Maybe they'll bring those ads here for the Christmas season: give the gift of syphilis - it's the hottest new item this season!

I'm clearly missing my calling. If this is all it takes to be an advertising exec, what am I waiting for? Ranks up there right along w/ Yoplait's "It's so good" campaign.
How bout "Syphilis: Bringing Sexy Back!"
Sorry, I had to.

Um, so am I the only one wondering what Syphillis has been up to all these years?

it looks like a cell phone next to it...are they randomly texting that as well?

I didn't realize it had gone away.

My father lived for those McRibs. From what I head they retired them for good...but they used Bullseye BBQ sauce.

Woooo! That so rocks! Alternate title: Cat-scratch-fever - it's back, can you dig it?
Good to see the fine folks at the city health department keepin' busy, what, with the creative writing team and all.

Back like senators to a men's restroom! Glad to see a post from you, Jen...my book club chums were worried that you were lost in editing hell. You'll love this...a brand new IKEA is coming to our city. Yes, the Sweedish Empire is invading Cincinnati! They are putting up the big IKEA blue (that should be a paint color, btw), sides to the store. OMG, that place is HUGE! Can't wait to check it out. When Crate and Barrell arrives, my life will be complete.

OMG, where can I get this awesome new disease?!

What? Britney Spears had nothing better to do than to take up sign design? This makes it sound like it's a good thing...get excited people...std's arriving shortly!!
Posted by: trish | October 21, 2007 at 07:02 PM
Ha!! That's fantastic.
Think this is a Hollywood-style comeback? Maybe it'll go on Oprah? Do a couple of big-screen blockbusters and then get its own sitcom?
