So we're doing this unit on advertising in English class, right? And we watched all these super-old commercials and talked about them and stuff. The point is, now I kinda have this stuck in my head.

Questions:
-How do I get it out of my head?
-How'd they make the kids get lifted by the invisible guy when CGI wasn't invented in the sixties? Wires? Blue screen, except for black-and-white somehow? Retrospec? I don't get it.
-Are oats even a good source of protein? I thought that was, like, meat and peanuts and stuff, and grains were for carbohydrates or something.

Sorry to ask, but this is really bothering me. At least it's not like those creepy burger ads with the plastic-face king.

Maybe, but I don't really want to do their advertising for them.

[maidofmistakes]

Do they even have advertising? I mean, we all just got this randomly.

[thesettingsun]

They don't really need it when they can just make you download their product.

I still don't get how that works. Didn't people throw screaming fits when they so much as got a free album back in the day on iTunes because everybody got it?

[thesettingsun]

U2 is way more respectable than Retrospec. And albums are way more harmless than this nonsense.

[maidofmistakes]

I guess. Albums don't give you an identity crisis and this can? Is that what you mean?

Among other things. And I liked that album once I got over how weird it was that it just suddenly was on my phone.
