I can just picture the phrasing of that lawsuit. "My huge manhood didn't get even more enormous when I used this product!"

The attached survey to this article is:
Do you agree with the class-action lawsuit against cosmetics companies selling products that claim to have anti-aging properties?
Yes, cosmetics advertising should be more honest.
No, consumers are savvy enough to know better.
Surprisingly, this survey is almost even with votes. 57 Yes votes and 60 No votes.

Plaintiff: he sold me this potion which he said would make me smarter, but it was a fraud.
Defendent: See, the plaintiff has gotten smarter.

My, Lord she looks as bad as Kerry's wife?
Someone should have told them both about Preparation H years ago. It works on wrinkles and is a lot cheaper than all the high price crap.

"These products that tout themselves as anti-aging products really target women of my era and kind of suck us into the belief that the clock can actually be turned back, when in fact, it cannot be turned back," Scheufler said. "I wasn't getting any younger." If she means she herself as a whole wasn't "getting any younger" she deserves the double dog dolt award, but maybe she was thinking that the creams had some kind of property reversing the aging of the skin to which it was applied. The ads do kind of read that way, you know. Of course, cosmetics ads wouldn't look so elegant with an ugly disclaimer that they (as with nutritional supplements) aren't intended to "treat any medical condition" etc.

Turn of (last) century a man appeared in Melbourne (Australia) Magistrates Court after police charged that the bottles of Compound Vegetable Pills he selling were in fact rabbit droppings.
He admitted in court that that was the case, but were they not of vegetable origin, had been compounded, and were in pill form?

I always get a laugh when I see a cosmetic ad that touts a new "hydroxy" formula! I laugh so hard that dihydrogen monoxide runs down my cheeks. People are such saps!
