Good movie, even if I wouldn’t have picked it as my one 80s pick, it’s a movie you can always go back to.

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.

I will need help this evening and during the weekend! I don't use a computer when I'm not at work and it's hard editing on a cell phone.
