I’m with Jersey Petey on this (killer follow-up by the way!). Maybe it was supposed to say “Botox for the Homely” and someone misspelled homely and the spell checker suggested Homeless. I once had to proof articles for a major medical newsletter and I do not understand how in the hell so many things slip past editors. Oh, that’s right… they’re the ones who temporarily memorised things long enough to pass exams in university, but never actually learned a fucking thing.
The only thing I can come up with is that this is some kind of combination donation drive and marketing ploy – come in for botox, and we’ll donate a portion of the proceeds to the homeless!
Botox can minimize the signs of aging, such as wrinkles. Some wrinkles are caused by stress. Being homeless is very stressful. Ergo, Botox for the homeless.
Okay, sometimes I, too, succumb to the “I don’t get it” thinking. WTF on this one? What do you think happened? Did they misspell “HOLIDAYS” and spellcheck chnaged it to HOMELESS? Of course, the entire ad begs the question: Who proofs this stuff?
