For Cro

As soon as i saw this on my facebook feed, i instantly thought of Cro's blog post about shampoo ads. This might not be quite what you had in mind, Cro, but it's a start, eh?



Updated, as the joke fell flat: In the US, L'Oreal is best known for hair colouring products, and one of their more famous slogan's is "Because you're worth it," as L'Oreal products are usually a tad pricier than others.

Chris Hemsworth is an Australian actor who plays the part of Thor, so "Thoreal" is a pun on "L'Oreal" and the "Because Hemsworth it" is a pun on the "Because you're worth it" slogan.

  1. I'm sorry, but I don't understand. Is Hemsworth a person or is it kind of a pun?

    Love,

  2. I presume Mr Hemsworth (?) plays the part of Thor in something? Unfortunately I can't claim to have similar hair, but I'd buy the stuff if it promised that I would. Gullible or what!!!
