This is the back of a bus in Bergen, Norway. Bob Megleren is some sort of realtor there. Be very careful if he asks if you have enough living space.
Unnerving translation: "We are ready... with 60 years experience... Bob Megleren - that's why."
Thanks to Ank!

Have you seen a truly awful piece of Photoshop work? Clumsy manipulation, senseless comping, lazy cloning and thoughtless retouching are our bread and butter. And yes, deep down, we love Photoshop.
If it is commercial and awful then please let us know! Anonymity can be arranged for the easily embarrassed/canned.
Although I am hopeless at replying to email, be assured that each and every tip is followed up.

yikes!
Lebensraum: Still A Good Idea; provided your real estate agent doesn't resort to invading Poland to obtain that new flat.
i don't see what the hitler thing has to do with this at all.
It's completely irrelevant.
The placement of the number on the back of the bus is a different story.
@kurto
you did'nt get it, right?
mm:)
Hitler single handedly ruined that moustache style...
What does a picture appearing on the side or back of a bus have to do with Photoshopping anyway? Nothing that I can see.
Well, having worked at a graphic design place, and done work for vehicle signage... I think that's what it has to do with Photoshop. Quite a lot really.
Haha... I've been looking for that bus with my camera for a month, but everytime I see it my camera is home. Looks like soeone had the same idea. It really is bad placing of picture. Maybe it isn't a mistake done in photoshop, but photoshop could have helped anyway.

"Be very careful if he asks if you have enough living space."
If you need two, three or four thousand square feet of space, then we will now give you 150,000, 180,000, 230,000, 300,000 or 400,000 sq ft, or more!
The hour will come when one or the other of us will crumble, but the house will probably last quite a while since it is pretty solidly built.
Fake!!!
It's not fake, that's a vent on the back of the bus that they can't cover.
This is simply stupid.. It does not look like a mustache, and it has nothing to do with photoshop..
If you think it has nothing to do with photoshop then you've never done artwork for a bus wrap.
Keep all of this stuff coming.
Can someone explain to me why people go onto sites they pay absolutely nothing to see and complain about the work the site operator has done? "This isn't photoshopped," "you're reaching," blah blah blah. Is it really THAT fun to criticize people anonymously?
^
welcome to the internet. ;-)
lol, I've actually been driving that bus.
Bergen <3
bob megleren isnt a name. Its a company. Bob, The realestate-company.
Bergen <3
FACT!
His name isn't Bob Megleren. It stands for Bob, realtor!
Bobmegleren is a subcompany of BOB, Bergen og Omegn Boligbyggelag. In english "Bergen Area Real estate company".
I used to live in a BOB flat and I find this quite amusing. The company is in my opinion more old fashioned half communal. And now they are sudddenly waving rock signs and accidental Hitler moustaches.
I've been wanting to take a picture of that bus for a long time. It cracks me up every time I see it, because the persons responsible MUST have known how it would turn out.
Anonymous who said it was fake: it most certainly is not. :p
Haha, i saw this when I was at work last week and made a comment about it to my co-workers, they just rolled their eyes and called me wierd..!! Thank god that more ppl noticed it!;)
Btw, I bought my apartment from this agency..;)
im going to Bergen tomorrow, so ill be looking for it!
Hehe, I live along this bus' route and I laugh everytime I see it ^^
Excuse me...excuse me!? You've got something there on your lip. No, your upper lip...It's still there...oh, forget it.
Jeezzeez, I love the fuzz...
I am the designer responsible for the advert (inhouse graphical deign for BOBmegleren).
I simply love the "mistake" made when mounting this advert on some of the busses. It kinda adds spice to the overall response this ad has got.IT GET NOTICED (maybe for the wrong reasons...but that doesn`t matter)
Only a few busses has the "Hitler-profile" due to different bodydesign of the rear end.
The majority of busses with the ad are OK...
Surprisingly enough - the fingers (rock on - devils horn) made a lot more fuzz in certain religious parts of local population...
The photographer is by the way Sharon Dominick, aviable on istockphoto.com. She is absolutely faboulus
Sharon DOES rock, one of the best on iStock! The coolest thing about her work is, she is often her own model, particularly the funny stuff (with fisheye.) Great use of the image, and funny coincidence.

I was driving behind that bus last week! Thought the exact same thing! Let me just tell you how creepy that bus is to anyone not aryan.
haha hitlerz
So what's the fun part? That it looks like she has some kind of hitler mustach?
[QUOTE]Hitler single handedly ruined that moustache style...[/QUOTE]
Reply: Yeah. Charlie Chaplin (who was born the same month and year as Hitler, if history class has taught me anything) had it first and it was real cute on him.
I dont doubt that it's real, it just seems there are so many unregistered types going on about how they have seen it, (You know, like someone pretending to be multiple people to try and make it seem, well, true). But i cant say thats true, it just seems odd so many people in bergen go on this site, and just so happen to see the same bus route (Well, unless every bus route has the number there).
It's true! We live in Bergen and my husband showed me the bus the other day! We noticed it both of us and had a good laugh!!
Here is another real estate agency in Norway, that advertises with "contact your local devil". Check out this adress: http://www.vl.no/samfunn/article3452715.ece.

The punt doubles with the text about 60 years of experience. Now, what else happened 60-ish years ago..?
oh.. i get it.. she looks like she has a moustache like hitler because of the bus number that's on the bakc of every bus.. wow.. how hilarious and absolutely everything to do with photoshop editing.
what do you notice about it? all i noice is his nose and teeth. haha
Is that Marilyn Manson?
