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.

They keep blaming the speeches, but if you trimmed out the awful comedy bits the show would only be half as long and much more fun to watch
