Most Ridiculous Ads | GQ Magazine – March 2010

(Note:  This is not a critique of the magazine.  Print publishing right now is going through a terrible time,  and we wish every magazine and newspaper the best of luck.  GQ doesn’t make the ads, they don’t pick the ads, they just hope to sell the ad space.  And sometimes what fills that space, can get a little… strange.  )

#2 Diesel
