Notice to Advertisers
Dear TV Pitch Men/Women,
I'm sure your focus groups and segment producers have convinced you your cereal, soy milk, whole grain mueslix, fresh berries, and various sauces appear more appetizing when thrown, dropped, splashed, or otherwise defy gravity in slow motion across the screen.
I will wager no one in your focus group could identify a mop, sponge, broom, or paper towel.
Please stop throwing your food. In adworld I'm sure flying spinach and slow-mo juice explosions are all the rage, but here in realityville they are just another sloppy mess.
Thank you and carry on.

My wife and I were talking about this yesterday, after watching a fork full of lobster splash into a cup of melted butter.
What a mess.

I didn't think a person could be happy, or lead a fulfilling life unless they figured out how to eat like this. I thought these were goals we were supposed to strive for............

Why do you think I watch PBS - no effing adverts or damn few. I switched to one of the four majors last week - saw 10 minutes of some drama accompanied by 20 minutes of grade 4 level advertising.

I can't stand commercial TV. I am also no longer used to watching the clock so I can catch a show when they have it scheduled. Oh, I'm supposed to pay more to fiddle with a DVR?
