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.

What I've learned from this thread is that "showy" isn't an objective, universal term like I thought it was. That's good to know.
