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.

It’s Argo’s favorite movie. It would be neat if we could all watch it together one day, but that just doesn’t seem likely.
