because it is - even the desire to not consume is consumable and thus marketable
the more you look at it the crazier it becomes - advertising operates at such a level of cynicism we would never tolerate elsewhere but yet happily carryon having the piss taken out of our deepest feelings / desires.
what do you think about subliminal cuts? the insertion of very short images in films that influence the sub-concious...its immoral right? ask yourself how far removed from that is product placement in films / tv etc. Pruduct placement used to be banned in bbc braodcasts but that will change. so you pay your licence fee to a public broadcaster who is also getting paid by companies to subtly influence you into buying their product -
i'm normally pretty level headed by i hate advertising with a passion.
You work in advertising don't you...
This is just a clever ploy to get us to buy shit we don't need.

I sea kayak a bit but used to sail a lot. I've also got a (by now expired) instructors certificate and my brother is a shipwright so I used to get to test all the little racing tubs he'd produce but I rarely do much on the water now unless it's in a kayak. I recently sold mine as it was taking up too much space (about a month ago) but over the past two years I've done trips on the dart, portland, westward ho! and the gower in south wales.
Obviously I've always fancied surfing since I saw Point Break but having tried once and nearly knocked myself out I never really got into it but would love to have another crack at it. (I watched Point Break on iPlayer last night...)



Is this another parody thread?
