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.

Read the article in chud's op link. The answer is in there and it's cute. It's much less than you'd think

Edit: if the acceptable guesses list accepts xerox and jerry than it is much, much longer than the potential answers list

The potential answers is what the article talks about

Still baffled about Jerry

What if I told you it isn’t just a name.
