They’re supposed to be selling clothes.  That’s the bottom line of every fashion show, high gloss magazine ad, and website photo ever created.  Because in the end if they don’t move product, the business will fail.  Which leads a lot of us to ask when seeing some of the photos the fashion & retail community produces: Who are they selling to anyway? Once a week you’ll find another head scratching nightmare fuel photo here, awaiting your caption.   Feel free to leave your submission in the comments section below.

    Having stretched the boundaries of genetic manipulation, scientists now turn their attention to cross breeding textile patterns, fire up the large hadron collider in reverse, and in bizarre cosmic blunder stumble upon the DOG particle, a miraculous sub atomic speck with the power to transform one’s clothing into Houndstooth of varying gauges.

    The latest exercise phenomenon, “Beat Me Up!”. By walking through any neighborhood, this outfit is sure to bring out the inner bully in those around you. By defending yourself you can easily burn 1000-4000 calories a day.

    No, really there’s nothing wrong with me. I just like working with kids.
