That's a Rigelian babelone. The only way to remove it, once it has you, is to amputate the limb (or pour Bud Lite on it). The important question is how do you remove Santa's hand from that woman's leg on the left?

That is not her leg. Gorn eyesight is notoriously bad I know, but I thought this was pretty obvious:

- her leg is behind a little bald man, sitting on the floor while licking her knee.
- grandad's hand is placed on the man's head so as to guide the licking motion.

You barbarians. The young lady on the left simply preferred draft to bottled beer. And as for that...appliance, well, you'll just have to let your imagination wander. As for the young lady on the left, she is a martial arts instructor. Just before this picture was taken she said "Want to loose that arm?", hence my slightly crestfallen expression [:(]

Still, the rest of the evening was entertaining [8D][:D]

I think I've made a major discovery. Here's a pic of Dracula.

I believe this is him after a blood meal. That guy behind him looks a bit shriveled.

The offending ad agency is Havas Worldwide New York, who won the account in 2014. You might recognize another one of their campaigns:

That was no campaign, they just started showing images of me around the world [:D]

I think the main question is being missed here - namely: What is the woman on the right got on her left hand?

a) an oven mitten
b) a rubbish boxing glove or
c) a very small chicken?

Supplementary:

Why has she got a pint, while the saddo in the middle is tooling around with a bottle?

Just askin'......

I don't know, maybe its just me. I didn't see anything past the two babes until you guys brought it up. What guy in the middle with his hand on what? She's got something on her hand? They're drinkin' something? What???[:D]

Also this, from "Boy on a Dolphin".

Don't know about you, but I have a dolphin between my legs when I look at her.

Ok, here's one of those "What's this" or "Identify this" thingies. How was she christened, launched, and what battles was she in?

Here's a report about a competition about what sorts of things you can do with/to horses. The French were not allowed to compete because, well, you know, they don't give a prize for table manners. [:D]

Ok, no one is responding to the "what's this" post, so I'll give it up. She was christened in 1931 as "La Dolce Vita" in the Swedish Navy, launched in 1951 at the Miss Universe pageant. One of her early battles was "Abbott and Costello go to Mars" which she won handily. There is a legend that earlier, although neutral, she had appeared at the battle of Taranto and distracted the Italian Navy. She would've been only 9 so I'm doubtful about that.

Early publicity shots can be tough -- I was even thinking Janet Leigh (from the eyebrows and cheekbones). I had to google the movie to find Ms. Eckberg.

But you did. That just proves you're a fine "upstanding" young man.

She looks real familiar but I can't come up with it. Here's someone I've forgotten. Don't know what to think of the guy she's with other than he's a cad, and I wouldn't buy a reverse mortgage from him. Stephanie Powers.

I wasn't sure if it would be too hard. Here's a hint: her eternal rival is this 1960 Miss America contestant:
