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 have no idea what the law is. I'm not sure what the legal difference is between a living household name like Donald Trump; a dead household name like Julius Caesar; and a living no-name, like the guy from the Beanie Babies movie.
