How about the automobile commercial that boasts an "impressive lease" deal, and prints it on the screen (I believe the law says they have to) for a duration that only speed readers who watch TV through a magnifying glass could read. I believe the spirit of that "law" was lost in the translation.

Of course. That's why I thanked Faldage for his tactful correction of my incorrect spelling.

Kind of an ad on a sign in front of a construction site:
"New office environment for Clarica"
Clarica is an insurance company whose ads emphasize word play with Clarity/Clarica.
Environment? Clarity? I think they just needed to fill the rest of the white space on the sign.
