This is great---maybe even better than all those muscle-building comics ads to impress the ladies at the beach.
I love the "No Talent" bit.
Define, "draw" for me.
Yeah, Bob...it was the bragging bravado in the headline that made me laugh. No Lessons! No Talent! ^_^
Holy Carp! So this was the secret all along! I just ordered mine today! Thanks for the tip Sherm.
Boy,...imagine how jealous my wife will be when the woman start crawling all over me! YES!!
No more will my lack of talent hold me back!!
Hey Todd--- if you liked this one, wait till you see the next crazy comic book ad I'll be posting in about a week from now!
I had one of these. I was bitterly disappointed in how it worked, although I think the concept is sound. The illustrations make you think it's a mini-projector, but you actually have to peer down into the hole in the top, and then one eye sees your subject via an angled mirror, and the other eye sees the paper. The illusion is that you're getting the image projected onto the paper. As a kid, I couldn't make it work the way I wanted to. But yeah, I had one.
