...psychoanalytical knowledge of man, is unscrupulously employed in this business. ... They [advertisements] are simply nonsensical, yet they are no simple nonsense but rather an extremely calculated and highly financed nonsense! What should make us stop and think is the ease with which we buy all this-buy it in both meanings of the word.

What I hate about these ads is the pseudo-reality they are presenting-come "out" and play, when all one is doing is staring at a little computer screen; "get up, get active"-a cartoon show?? The only active thing going on there is the moving of the spoon of cereal to the mouth. Come on people!
