That is delightful. The couple on the right seem perfect for each other.
I'm having a lovely time imagining the artist and copywriter fully intending the reference, and the higher-ups not catching on. That's probably not what happened, but it's fun to think about!
(I'm ashamed to admit I missed the pun in the title until I got to the comments page! It's perfect!)
Great ad though there's an awful lot of starch in those shorts....
There probably needs to be!
