"Women of American..."

 

continued

Most Fake Adders thought the ad, which offered to match "Women of American United States" with experienced gentlemen from overseas--a twist on the ubiquitous ads offering to match foreign young women with American men--was clever. "Cute," wrote David Cooke. "I guess turnabout is fair play!"

And Susan Boyes wrote: "I love this ad. It must have been so much fun to write!"

But not everyone was a fan. "I'm extremely disappointed in your choice for a fake ad this month," wrote Diane Averill. "It is sick. It is not even funny."

We'll leave the last word to Eric Sobocinski, who wrote, "This is one of my favorite fake ads. The biting parody is right on. Not funny to me, just painfully insightful."

Anita Yu was chosen as our winner. She's taking her gift certificate to Zingerman's.
