Oh, just go and post some more adverts for us to enjoy why don't you.
And spend the money on some mouthwash to get the taste out of your mouth.

Yeah, not the smartest quote. Seems to think that people are making my money by filesharing.

What? Superbowl ads are an American fad. I'm not gonna buy a ****ing Hummer and I don't use that stupid deoderant, I do like the thematic entertainment of the advertisements. Just like I like the colors FedEx uses, just like I appreciate the Enron logo (devised by a graphic artist mastermind). It's not pro-corporate, it's pro art. Is my appreciation of Handel pro-royalism (he was funded by royal patrons)? Corporations are the ones with resources and art is generally produced where the resources are because a painting feeds the artist not.

I wouldn't put Handel on the same level as a McDonald's advert. Maybe if he composed a song which went "I love the king, the divine right to rule is woooooonnnndddderrffuuulllll!" then yeah, pretty much.

I never said McDonalds advertisements were good. I didn't say all corporate advertisements are good, but there are some that are very good. Handel's not all that ingenious anyways (Although I love his music).
