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.

I'd rather add a 30's, 40's, 50's round than a edit.

Someone should draft a team of what they think LV would have picked.

Mel Gibson...Dakota Johnson? One of the Ewok movies?
