We were waiting for somebody sitting high on the rapier-wit scale to catch the UPS whiteboard campaign (featuring pseudo-indy band Postal Service) and spoof to heart’s content. Thankfully it didn’t take long.

Shawn of Shedwa points us to some savory whiteboard madness. The mail order bride one is an instant UPS classic, but our favourite is monkey sex. “Let’s give this little guy a banana,” the demonstrator says pleasantly after explaining UPS vaccinates monkeys and kills neighbors.

What does it mean when a spoof can elicit more satisfaction than the service itself?
