Dear American People,

I guess you'll find businesses selling unique eyebrow designs only in god's own country:

And what does "unique" mean? Do their customers get two different designs for their two eyebrows? - What a bargain!

Groucho Marx' greasepaint eyebrows are unique, in a way. Maybe that's what they are selling?

Confused,
Lennart (a worried European)

They are taking advantage of something they heard about a fool and his money.

Seriously, though, this is meant to appeal to the nouveau riche/Republican/Lexus SUV set. I have said on multiple occasions they have more money than brains. There's quite a lot of them in this (growing) area of the country.

Think rich American stereotype. Fox News viewer, the non-trailer park edition. (One of the groups of) People who give us a bad name abroad.

My reaction to these kind of things is unfortunately cynical.

The advertising industry is doing their best to destroy the word "unique", claiming that all kinds of mass-produced items are "unique". And not just American advertisers either.
