Is that a real ad or something that the Onion created?

I think that’s from the National Lampoon magazine.

It’s real, I have the original. It is so unPC.

National Lampoon...however, it was based on a VW campaign that had a guy driving off something into water, and floating.

Can't remember if Ted's homicidal venture, or the ad campaign came first.

If the former, than kudos to Madison Avenue for being able to connect reality with product safety.

Mad magazine and later Lampoon were YUGE influences on me.
