I found "the burrito has landed" even more hillarious ^^ also i like the clustered mix of shapes and textures, as well as the clearly abandoned plaza. Nicely spotted :)

@zahai: There's more on both sides, a cluster of ads.

I so like the look of the whole place being ghost-town . . where is everyone ? They cannot be working.

Twelvebit from Victoria, United States

I gotta tell ya, I don't think that poster on the right would fly here --that has about the most racist overtones of any ad I've seen since about 1926: Racist Chicken restaurant ad

@Twelvebit: I know what you mean, this is part of a campaign for a cell phone company. I have noticed that they have others with the big mouth, its part of their promotion.
