Have you ever come across these pictures with retro ladies smiling combined with sarcastic tongue-in-cheek captions? If you have, and also found them funny, then this article is your cup of tea.
An artist called Anne Taintor is the originator of these snarky vintage illustrations that will surely make you laugh if you have a slightly wicked sense of humor. The illustrations often show “traditional” American women—coiffed, starched, and cheerful models from the 40s, 50s, and 60s—juxtaposed with cheeky captions suggesting their real inner thoughts.
So, scroll down and feed your sarcastic soul.

Son: Why should I make my bed if I'm just going to sleep in it tonight? Mother: Why should I feed you if I know you're going to die someday anyways?

I don't think her children will look good all covered up in Frost :) ... {I am prepared to get down voted on this comment by all PC people out there. }
Coz everyone here is stoned, why do you think they are singing songs for a man on a cloud?
Hahahahaa.. ohh fck.. that's Savage, specially with those expressions, its just funny as hell.
I think if we lifted our skirts above our knees, we could break into a run.
They're doing pretty good because the children are no where in sight!
Unrelated - I want those telephones back everywhere, so that people will dial less and specially our lives will be relieved of stupid text messages.
Is it the man expressing this because he's the one cooking, or is it the woman... because the man is cooking?
Oh God...Mom's using the Campbell's Soup Cook Book again...Where's the Pepto Bismol?
It depends on how you define success. We also don't know what kind of childhood most people had. Sorry! Suddenly realised I was being way too serious for this comedic submission!
Curtain Twitch - If only you know what I mean. "Jimmy Carr " Fans will definitely know.
Hahahahahaha... . It made me remember a Joke = "I always pick up hitch-hikers when I am travelling, but I don't understand why they keep on complaining that they don't live in forest."
During Prohibition, people would make bathtub gin. That is the reference.
Just a minute while I pick up these Legos. I'm afraid someone will step on them.
To all BP members - If you think i was a bit of douche bag today commenting some seriously incorrect PC things or insensitive things, those were jokes only. I dont mean them at all. Being "Ladies and Gentleman" i respect both gender equally and in my eyes, everyone is equal. So please dont cringe.
Load More Replies...I love, love Anne Taintor. I wanted to vote for ALL of them. My favourite was not here: "Maybe I want to look cheap"
i'd buy prints and hang them to my walls. my kind of humour :) well done
Love these, too, too funny, though maybe it's generational thing. This is life as it used to be and why there so many women on drugs in the 50's, lol.
