Another irritation. On a roll

#1 Post by Beebs52 » Wed Dec 09, 2020 3:41 pm

Watching reruns of RHOC which I'm sure diminishes me in your estimation...

But. The sad 90's retreads of faux enlightening perfume commercials. Versace, Lancome Dior, whoever.

I would wear pinesol before buying those specific scents.
Well, then

Same. The Johnny Depp one, tho...why under God's golden sun would I purchase a cologne advertised by a guy who perpetually looks like he needs a good scrubbing?

This time of year it can be hard to distinguish fragrance commercials from ads for hallucinogens
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.
