    I don’t know about you, but nothing says “loan refinancing professionals” to me like a cartoon hand missing the last joints of its fingers but with enormous black, irregular nails. Sign me up!

    Update (2/13/15): A pal found this online…

    …and sent it my way, showing us that it’s not just one idiotic online display ad, but an entire idiotic online display ad campaign (if two ads constitute a campaign, and for the sake of this blog post, they do).

    Anyway, thanks to our eagle-eyed reader who submitted it, and who would have been receiving an official Ted Parsnips “I’m An Idiotic Online Display Ad Spotter For Ted” t-shirt if he’d bothered to enclose his mailing address. And also if I had such t-shirts printed up, but I don’t — like I have money for that crap!

    Yes, yes, yes, “Well, Ted, maybe if you refinanced your home and got a better deal on your life insurance, you could afford such things.”  Aaah, get outta here!
