QuacksO's definitions
A huge roadside-sign advertising assorted products/services dat are usually grossly overpriced and/or are seldom of any interest to you; about all it does is distract you from concentrating on da road properly, and give you higher credit-card "bills" if you actually partake of any of said profferings.
Besides filling your head wif useless crapola-thoughts and possibly creating a drain on your finances, billboards --- especially da "modern-technology-equipped" signs wif blindingly-bright and/or colorful/moving lights --- are also very dangerous to driving-safety, for da following reasons:
(1) Da signs distract you from concentrating on da road and surrounding traffic, especially if they are flashing super-brilliant colors directly in your eyes.
(2) Da signs can cause you to unconsciously go into "sign-ignoring mode" as a matter of "survival" against distraction/blinding, which tends to make you also not notice or pay little heed to traffic-rule/advisory signs dat you’re required by law to read; it's sorta like da "fake Amber Alert" messages (think, da infamous/voluminous "Ashley Flores" notices) dat tragically cause some viewers to impatiently ignore genuine missing-child notices, contemptuously assuming dat all da notices they see are now just fakes. Da ad-signs can also cause you to miss your lane-changes and/or exits, especially if there are brightly-lit boards right near your desired turn-offs which temporarily blind you and thus make it harder for you to make out da exit-signs.
(3) Other drivers in da surrounding lanes may be trying to read da billboards, as well, and so their resulting distraction can cause dem to drift out of their lanes, slam on da brakes to get a better look at da signs, etc., potentially causing you to collide wif dem, or dem to crash into you.

Get the billboardmug. Brighty and his friends don't actually grow much of a winter coat, so brayon wouldn't be so plentiful or easy to get as wool from a sheep --- a burro's hair doesn't grow very fast, and so you'd hafta wait longer between shearings.

Get the brayonmug. High-powered mind-and-body-altering drugs that cause the user to just completely "space out" and gaze blankly at random objects/people for long periods of time without blinking.

Mel Blanc always had to rest up before voicing the staccato-speaking Elmer Fudd, in order to maintain his stammerna long enough to voice the entire episode.

Get the stammernamug. What a majority of golf players truly view their putting-green as being, since it seems hell-bent on making their shots travel anywhere but how/where they intend for them to go.
Bob Stuyvesant from the Red Green Show seems to view all golf courses as being unfairways, whereas in reality he is merely a horridly-lousy golfer who likely couldn't make a decent shot even if he had a completely-level playing-field with perfectly-even-height grass-blades.

Get the unfairwaymug. The thick jiggly folds of excess "webbing" that form below one's armpits due either to advanced age or his having gained more than a few pounds.

Get the wing-flapsmug. Da varying status of importance regarding brilliantly-sparking electric-wires at da top of a service-pole.
Having a burnable tree fall across electric wires and causing a blindingly-flashing short-circuit involves a much greater higherarcy for repair-crews than just a lightly-sputtering power-transformer on a "totally out in da air" utility-pole dat has no flammable objects nearby.
