Spoofs

Absolut Stupidity.

back

ABSOLUTE STUPIDITY is a spoof ad on the inside front cover of Mad Super Special #137: School Sucks (5/99). The cover of this issue of Mad magazine looks like the cover of a schoolkid's black and white marble notebook (composition book); if the magazine is flipped over there's another cover: Mad mocks Fox TV. The fake ad shows a partially filled soda bottle with a straw in it and a cork in the top; the bust of Alfred E. Neuman rests atop the bottle, with the words Absolute and Stupidity on either side. Below the bottle is a subscription offer for the mag.
