    Hey, I thought having chicken pox prevented you from having shingles as an adult, so I guess I actually learned something from that seriously gross ad.



    I thought that shingles was the adult version of the pox. Why are parents eager for their kids to get chicken pox then to get it over with as kids? Sadism? Actually, yeah, I can see that.

    We need “imagine this” ads for other diseases.



    Imagine a hideously ugly alien baby covered with fish scales and you’ll have an idea of what it can be like to have icthyosis.

    Slate had a really nasty and unavoidable "dental whitening" ad for, like, WEEKS... complete with disgusting yellow "before" pictures.

    I have a feeling that the Times.com ad sales folks secretly giggle whenever they manage to land an advertiser like this.
