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 almost gave up on the first episode because of how boring and clinical I found it but then it started getting more interesting and expressionistic in its storytelling and aesthetic from ep 2 onwards. Some really chilling moments there
