Truth in Advertising.

I propose a new amendment to the Constitution which states that at the end of every print ad, every radio ad, and especially every television ad, the advertisor must state, with the last three words in the ad:

Send us money.

I think that would do exponentially more for this country than any lever you're likely to pull on November 2.

Yeah, and a disclaimer ad posted on every personal, sorry, 'Craigslist' ad: 'I'm really a man', 'I'm fugly', 'I'm lined with scrotal hair', and 'I'm just fucking with you', just to clear things up for the lonely.

Let's not do two things, each of which involves jumping:

1. Let's not base-jump.

2. Let's not jump to conclusions.

What stuck in your craw about advertising? Hey guy, maybe if you didn't spend a good four quarters of your life watching TV you wouldn't be so affected.

What else are you upset about?

How are those airline peanuts?

The 20 posts I've made on this shitty site are all better than you, as a person. The intangible words I've placed on a screen are better and frankly more important than your entire life.

That is why I am here.

This seems as good a place as any to link this.

I sort of have mixed feelings. I'm going to down a couple Jack and Cokes and come back to this.

I guess it's nice to see AYBABTU every now and then. I'd like to be able to goatse someone again too and fire up my old AOL T00lz. Though that's all in the past. Stuff sure gets old quick on the Internet huh?

I must respectfully disagree with this assessment, sir.
