only in France...

The Parisian metros change their wall-sized ads every week-or-so. This week, they're incredible.

The mattress company Dunlopillo's ads read: "difficile de s'aimer ailleurs que sur un dunlopillo" ["difficult to make love other than on a dunlopillo"] accompanied by photos of stereotypical sexual lieus in the home - the couch, the sink, the washing machine... - topped with comfy-looking mattresses. Ha, only in France.

Here is an older ad from the same company:

Translation: "Making love on a 100% Naturalia Dunlopillo mattress significantly preserves the environment" and in smaller font "because during this time man is not using his car, he is not genetically modifying corn, he is not watering his lawn, he is not letting the water run as he brushes his teeth, he is not building a nuclear power plant, he is not heating up his mashed potatoes in the microwave, and he is not hurting the penguins."

Ah, utterly divine...Vive la France.
