I think the postage meter one is worse. I don't even get what they are trying to sell there.
Yeah, I totally don't get that one. Why does he want to kill her -- does he not like the postage meter?
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

Maybe it's just something that's been on his mind, like "How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop?"

Because books.
I got an idea of what the Lysol ad was about and quickly scrolled past. Because, WTF?
And the postage meter one really is just bizarre. And offensive.

Happy Birthday, Frank! Maybe instead of going to Maine you could just go fishing in Massachusetts. Quite a nice fish Rachel caught there.
Not looking at offensive ads, because yuck.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Or the WWII propaganda poster urging US citizens to "Grow Hemp for the War": [link]
