Highbrow:

Lowbrow:

Completely unnecessary and necessary at the same time. Feel free to pretend to be your favorite Mad Men character or even James Bond.

Unibrow:

This is it for these kids. I don’t know if anyone else will ever be so excited about a talking Spongebob ever again.

Disclaimer: Make sure your volume isn’t all the way up for this one.

This video also reminds me of this lovely gem:
