I'm writing a shitty research paper about advertising and yada yada yada.

So I have the local news on, not really by choice or anything but because it's there, and some crappy local commercial comes on. It nears its end, and when the voiceover guy says "Nationwide," I automatically chime in, "It's on your side!" in a sarcastic, over-enthusiastic tone. And then I realize what I've done and pretend to shoot myself in the head.

I would say, yada yada yada would be much more fun.

Yada yada yada isn't about weight limits, it's about NO LIMITS!

Just run with their old motto.

"Advertising doesn't cost it pays."

I've always doubted that for most business.

Is that the biography about the woman who started out writing for Macy's and ended up running the mega-advertising firm? With the villa in the south of France that she used to lure new clients? I read it last year and found it to be quite interesting, even though it was a bit self-aggrandizing.
