A Likely Overproportional Response

So there's this video that shows a cop beating a 15 year old girl senseless after she took off her shoe in a petulant way. You might have seen it. Thanks to the wonders of context-based advertising, viewers get to see the best fitting ad on youtube!

i fear that the double entendre with the overproportional response was not clear enough :(

Adding this, of course, to my collection of Unfortunately Placed Ads!

I'm not sure it qualifies as one of the Unfortunately Placed Ads, though...

It's where it's at

That's right, it counts where things are at! Advertisements, for example, don't always belong where they're put. You've probably already seen my collection of unfortunately placed ads... Two new inductions into that hall of fame are below. Full disclosure, I nicked these off failblog, but I removed the stupid "fail" text from the pics because frankly, it's not funny and half the time it doesn't even fit. It's not like they found the pictures themselves anyway. But! If you're reading this and YOU did find one of these, drop me a line and I'll link you or something. Here they come!

This isn't just an unfortunately placed ad, it's tragically sad.
