KINDA FREAKED OUT: If you grew up in Hungary in the 1980s, you might remember these ads. Or not. Me, I grew up in Michigan and remember comic book ads for Hubba Bubba, Stompers and Sea Monkeys. That’s what comes to mind.

Anyway, I’m just plain freaked out by those ads in that link. Weird. Lots of markers coloring in stuff, I think? Hard to say. All the way from Hungary, readers. (Sent in by Akos Nagy, and we thank him for it.)
