more faulty parallelism

I took this shitty photograph on the subway because it's such a good example of a mistake I always enjoy.


So a locally famous dermatologist offers the following services:

  • TOTAL COMPLEXION TREATMENT
  • DR. ZIZMOR'S FAMOUS PEELS
  • BLEMISHES, DARK SPOTS AND SCARS ON FACE AND OTHER AREAS (legs, arms, chest and back)
  • CUSTOM SKIN REGIMENS AND TREATMENTS MADE FOR YOUR SKIN

Hold the phone...!  As they said on Sesame Street, one of these things is not like the other.

"Yes, I'd like to come in to get a total complexion treatment, one of those 'famous peels,' and...yeah, you know, while I'm there, lemme just get a couple of blemishes on my face and back, too."

Dr. Zizmor.  You'll come for the custom skin regimens; you'll stay for the dark spots and scars.
