One person can’t make a joke like that seem funny…

But I think toucan.

Local radio guy calls that joke a “Soupy.” That’s a joke that isn’t funny, but if you mold it, remake it and tell it in the style of Soupy Sales, it still isn’t funny.

My wife’s family had one of these in the house…until he nipped a visitor’s nose.

The logo leads to the Air and Space Museum article about the aircraft.
One of its first pilots was Neil Armstrong.

Sean Connery all the way!

I read all the Bond books way back then, and I knew Ian Fleming didn’t want Connery in the part…

But even he eventually came around and said he couldn’t picture any other Bond.

….

I know, I know… he got older, and he retired… and somebody else had to take the role.

I loved Roger Moore, loved The Saint where he embodied the Simon Templar of the books…

But he just wasn’t Bond.

….

When I first saw Pierce Brosnan, he was playing Remington Steele, but I thought he was born to play James Bond.

But when he actually played James Bond… Nah.

I don’t like the modern “tough guy” Bonds either.

Daniel Craig???

I know it wasn’t a “real” Bond movie, and I’m glad… But the author’s first choice, David Niven, got to play him once…

And it’s better forgotten.

Just like he’s forgotten on this poster.

I saw all of the Sean Connery & Roger Moore movies. I really enjoyed both, but I especially liked Moore’s tongue-in-cheek attitude. After them I just lost interest and only saw one other “Bond” film. I like David Niven as James Bond… along with Woody Allen, as James Bond… along with 5 more Bond’s.

The only true “Casino Royale”.
With – behold! – the human replacement for Cursula Undress.

I think I remember this Stel Bel poster from the past. Fitting that Cleo, being named for a great Queen of Egypt, should have a basset film made about her.

Oh…. I remember this movie!

Ursula Undress was quite the…. um…. the….

that word that we’re not supposed to use here.

The word humans use for…. well…. a kinda growly female who bites…..

even though it really only means… um… female dog who’s ready to have your puppies…. va-va-voom.

She who must be obeyed.

…..

And yeah, the humans did try to copy it…..

Meh.

The human bi…. er…. I mean, the human female doesn’t even have a name.

Just “She.”

You can tell that the actress who plays her doesn’t have the “va-va-voom” of Ms. Undress, either….

The poster artist had to paint her costume ripped down to there, just to try to enhance her charms.

And human posters don’t even have glitter.

No wonder I’m a fan of basset movies.

I do not remember the movie all that well (I’ll have to reread the book too) but She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed is named Ayesha in the Sir H. Rider Haggard saga.
A quote from the opening of the Wikipedia article:
 
“She, subtitled A History of Adventure, is a novel by the English writer Sir H. Rider Haggard, published in book form in 1887 following serialisation in The Graphic magazine between October 1886 and January 1887. She was extraordinarily popular upon its release and has never been out of print.”
 
I found the movie online.
 

 
The novel, too:
 
“SHE” (the novel)

Alexi, I was just trying to make a joke about the human poster.

I know she actually had a name, because I read the Haggard novel when I was about 10.

But “she” looks funny on a poster, compared to Cleo… if the idea is that the humans were just copying the bassets.

Not every joke needs to be “corrected”.
