I despise the advertising industry’s excesses. As luck would have it, print ads don’t bug me, because you control your exposure. (This is fortunate when one works for a newspaper.) You can turn the page anytime, or fold it over to remain undistracted from the article on the page. But some first-class knobs in NYC have come up with the ultimate in intrustive advertising: it’s in your head. Right now in NYC, if you walk near a billboard for somebody or other’s stupid paranormal TV show, you get the sensation that there are voices in your head. (I ain’t saying whose show, because then I will be spreading their numbskull propaganda and maybe getting more people to tune in, giving them the impression this @$#%& worked.)

Who thought this was a good idea, and can I invade their brains with my own personal audio messages? Cause I can think of a few things I’d like them to hear.
