Get the Elephant Cokemug. Using some popular superstition, stereotype or prejudice to your advantage.
This expression is used in marketing and stems from 1874 when industrialist Andrew Carnegie paid a circus to walk their elephant across his new bridge. Since there was a popular supersition that elephants will never cross unsafe structures, Carnegie used this popular belief to "prove" to public that his bridge is safe.
Fast food restaurants and stands selling Gyros often decorate themselves with Greek flag colors and Greek key patterns even though neither the owner nor the employees are of Greek origin.
Every pizzeria tries to give itself an Italian image/name/theme even if no employees nor the owner are of Italian origin.
Fortune cookies are used to advertise Chinese restaurants and served in them but are not of Chinese origin.

That dude Chuck over there keeps yelling in the class, and complains when the classwork is too hard, he always tries to steal the candy the teacher gives us for hard work. What a flippin' Circus Elephant.

Get the elephant in the roommug. Something so obvious (like a pink elephant), but nobody says a word- like it doesn't even exist, making the the whole circumstance very akward.
Julia: He brought Angelina to the dinner?
Jennifer: Yes! And it was so akward- everybody knew Angelina was the girl he was seeing before we broke up, but nobody said a word!! She was, without a doubt, the pink elephant of the night!
