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.

It's a little like that time my dad cleaned the coffee pot by scrubbing it instead of just rinsing it out and then proudly stated that "no one had ever thought to clean it like this before", even though my mom always cleans it thoroughly.

I thought I remembered you liking this a lot. I'm half way through and think it's good enough. Didn't know this was a GVS 'n.

I think it’s probably the best of all the movies centered on sobriety. Tells a story. Doesn’t pulverize you with the message.
