I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

That's not what I meant! It meant, like, "I feel ashamed." Should I have used another emoji?
I see. Well, then apologies again! I have very specific feelings about that emoji that I'm sure are mine alone. That's my baggage, not yours. Again, sorry about that.

Really, though, all jokes aside, I'm really bummed that she passed. She was a major part of my growing up and I feel like she got made fun of more than she deserved.
