Newest Muni Ad Spoof: Men’s Whorehouse
Ouch.
Earlier, a MissionMission contributor said he saw two guys putting up these ads on the 49 (“one of them had a pretty sweet mustache”).
So far in the series of Muni adbusters, we’ve got a special variety Tums, the other name for Tartine, and a dig on Du Beers.
I can’t quite tell why Men’s Warehouse was picked as a target for the spoof. Personally I think this spoof of a men’s fragrance is pretty on point.

From MissionMission:
I had the pleasure of watching one of the new fake bus ads go up today. I was on the 49 when two young males boarded. One mentioned concernedly to the other that there was no one driving the bus. I informed them that the driver was behind the bus fixing the wires, which had fallen off the lines as the bus turned off 16th onto Mission.
But alas, no photos of the two guys. Just as well, because that would be like finding out that Santa Claus isn’t real, right? You can read the rest of his account on MissionMission, including a description of the guys.
For review, we have a special variety Tums, the unfortunate nickname for Tartine, and an inexplicable spoof of Du Beers. The dig on Marines is also clever but perhaps not from the same culprit?
What’s next?
Muni Adbusted Yet Again: Du Beers
Well lookee there. What started out as a one-off Tuesday morning on Muni Diaries seems to be in the midst of going viral locally.
Previously, we brought you “Cum Tums” and “Fartine.” The local internet happened upon another: an ad for “Du Beers”(diamonds), with the adbusted ad slogan, “Slanging blowjobs since 1927.” That’s a lot of diamonds, a lot of money, and a lot of blowjobs. Eighty-five years’ worth, in fact.
It’s becoming clear that this is a concerted effort by someone or some group. Maybe the assholes who smashed windows in the Mission a couple of weeks ago have taken up non-violent protest? In any case, carry on, y’alls!

Muni Adbusters Strike Again
The “ad” reads: “Fartine Bakery Cafe. Wait in line five hours to buy a fucking donut.”
Bone to pick: They’re pastries, not donuts.

Update: What’s next? Looks like we have a spree of spoof ads on Muni! Readers pointed us to Du Beers and some fine Marines. Seen more? Send it our way!
