Man, I love advertising.

I especially love it when someone goes out of their way to post advertising on the behalf of some huge multinational with no perceivable benefit for themselves.

Yes.

I tend not to post things with my own criticism built into the content because I *usually* enjoy the way the discussion around here takes care of that. I guess I made the assumption that users are capable of seeing through and discussing the corporate spin on things that bombard us everyday from every angle. I really just wanted to provide a forum to discuss the absurd idea of having "BAD record DJ’s" spin music for swag-hungry pantaloon purchasers. If you actually think someone is going to buy overpriced designer slacks from my post, I assure you that was not my intention.

Just a show of hands...how many people went out and bought a Honda when they saw the commericals for "cog" and "sense" posted here?

Well, boost, why didn't you put it in that context? Obviously no one took that cue, and now you're the diesel fanboy.

It looked as though a spambot posted it.
