  1. Ha, that's funny. He looks like he's smoking one of those hookah pipes.

  5. Of course we remember the Michelin tire man. We see him on commercials in the USA all the time.

    I think he is a relative of the Pillsbury Dough Boy.

  7. I also remember him as the Michelin man from tires. "Smoking" pollution doesn't look funny..
    The other picture is cute, though that must also be italien black humor. The man fell down and the people in the car are waving instead of helping him....
