    Poor Jack Sparrow.. CAPTAIN Jack Sparrow

  2. JewGrammer says:

    FAKE the “WESTWOOD MEDICAL” is photoshoped

  3. zeed says:

    Funny, if it wasn’t an obvious fake.

  4. Gert the Great says:

    Honestly, the stupidity isn’t if this is shopped or not but that everyone but me doesn’t seem to know a skull used to be a common medical symbol a long time ago.

    So it may be a tad archaic and of course it’s an advertisement anyways but it wasn’t actually a fail either.

    • wendy says:

      Well… I tried to find the skull as a medical symbol.. all I find is the aesculape, and the skull as a sign of either something being toxic or really dangerous.

    • Well given how much US medical care costs I vote that we bring back the skull and crossbones to use as a symbol ;)

      They are perhaps the most vicious pirates in the world afterall, accounting for more deaths, robbery and looting than every other pirate in the world combined :)

  5. Hal says:

    ARRRRRRRGH! We’ll be needin’ all the pretty nurses!

  6. LmaoYo says:

    Not fake this poster is next to the UCLA Campus. Seen when they posted it up! Not Photoshop… Lol

  7. i know a bit says:

    Shut up all of you now. West wood medical is right by UCLA I go there every half year or less and they always are advertising the latest movie on that wall every time. So shut it.

  8. callista says:

    This is not a photoshop, drive by it everyday going to UCLA…

    • AnotherSchmoe says:

      Yeah people in the comments sections here are such major tools. EVERYTHING is a photoshop to them. They think they’re experts on photoshop detection or something but they clearly have no idea.

  9. Rizz Rustbolt says:

    Watch out, I think that hospital might be poisonous.

  10. T Marie says:

    I actually took a picture of this back on March 25th- and posted on my FB page because I thought it was a little brazen. I was on my way to Cedars. This is a real advertisement… The placement is obviously in bad taste… I found it more comical than offensive, but absolutely silly nonetheless.

  11. bode says:

    Come on it’s not fake. Here’s a great article about the area:

    http://la.curbed.com/archives/2010/03/_wilshire_gayley_that_proposed.php

    Note the picture of an “alice in wonderland” ad on the building. Those who can actually read might be amused by the text of the article, which describes how one rich guy wants to build a tall building that would block the supposedly “fake” building’s supergraphic. The developer of the new building might need to pay the owner of the other building for lost revenue from ugly posters. But I guess if it is fake, it wouldn’t matter if someone blocked the view, right?

  12. RyanJC says:

    Guys this is literally 5 minutes from my house. Google Maps: Westwood Medical Plaza. Westwood, CA. The ad is for the new Pirates of the Carribean movie.

  13. RyanJC says:

    I live 20 minutes from here.Westwood, CA on the corner of Santa Monica blvd. and Westwood Blvd. Google Maps if you dont believe me. The ad is for the new Pirates of the Carribean movie. The words were never added because it began to rain and the workers putting it up had to come down. NOT SHOOPED

  14. MaskMan says:

    Can’t believe no one has said this yet:

    “Truth in advertising!”

  15. Sarah says:

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :) :) :) :) :)

  16. DaOldMan says:

    <dos es work?<

  17. DeathDoctor says:
     fake and gay 
  18. pogirex says:

    yeah I get thet a lot

  19. MD says:

    HAHA sad. And to all of you who think it’s photoshopped, it’s not. It’s on Westwood and Wilshire Blvd near UCLA – I live there.

  20. Kaka says:

    This is so not fail. This is so win.

  21. Name (required) says:

    Im sorry but the sign MAY BE real but this image IS SHOPPED (and its not the FAIL or the failblog.org watermark that i mean) you can CLEARLY see a very big difference between the sign and the rest of the picture….either this or whoever took this picture had a very weird camera and was in very weird conditions (weather wise)

  22. Joe Dollar says:
    i'm learning stuff
  23. Stephanie says:

    When I get sick……
    I wanna go there.

  24. failure is imminent says:

    Sounds like a nice place to visit.

     A very nice place 
  25. doug says:

    hmmm…. oh yeah never wear a heartagram shirt to a church, youll get called a satanist.. stupid old ppl =’(

  26. mel says:

    Not photoshopped. I drive by that stupid poster everyday on my way to UCLA. I have plenty of time to ponder it as I sit in traffic on Wilshire Blvd.

  27. Marq says:

    Yea, I go to UCLA. Me and my friend laughed at it earlier today
