The american interpretation of marketing and capitalism, the way I've observed it dictated to me:
Marketing is about a lot more than just being able to sell dog shit to damn near anybody; it's about more than making that dog shit seem like the crown jewels. Marketing is about having a consumer thank you for even having the opportunity to purchase your regal brand of dog shit. It's about that craze in the mind that makes decent, sane folks trample a mother and her two kids on black Friday for a toaster; but hey, that's just the nature of the beast because marketing is capitalisms fiber and if you have a better idea... Well fuck you... Communist...
The way I see commercials:
My get fit commercial:
"Do you want to lose that belly fat and look like a 21 year old again? Well after millions of dollars worth of research and a few Swiss scientists walking away like bandits, we have discovered a miracle cure. We call it: 'NBO' or 'Not being old'. Research shows that if you're a 21 year old and still hideously ugly, unless you have a thyroid condition, the most minimal amount of exercise should be enough to get you into great shape but after a certain age, unless you're some body building machine of a human being or on a lot of drugs and/or surgery, we suggest you take care of yourself and accept what god gave you with some dignity. We're sorry you're getting older but stuff happens as a result of that. So if you want to look like a 21 year old at 60, stop, consider the beauty that you're still living when people just 100 years ago would already be dead and accept what great gifts you're giving. For everyone else who can't accept that though, there's NBO. Not Being Old is a product of the Johnson and Johnson family, all rights reserved."
The truth:
You tell me. I just hoped I made you laugh a little...
