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 a pretty cool theory but the timeline would be tricky.

Also cool to know more about Rust´s father and his relationship with him.
