we used to have ads that were so not a problem that we'd admit to having favorites in public and no one would think it was cringe at all and they might share their favorite ads in return. those ads knew nothing about us, though. inert ads.

but now we have voracious ads that devour information about us and we instinctively know how cringe it would be to develop any positive relationship with such a malevolence and do everything we can to avoid them and certainly wouldn't spread them to our friends and family. they have destroyed advertising in the name of surveillance and now it's got a tiny fraction of the value that it had before they (tech bros) decided to make it better.

you see it right? we would sing goddamn ad jingles at each other, we turned frogs in a swamp croaking out a beer company's name into a nationwide memetic sensation. ad mascots got clothing lines and sold like hotcakes. if you wanted to build a brand, advertising was the bomb because if you made a great ad, people spread it for you. all without computer networks and personality profiles and tracking cookies. it did the thing. adding the computers and the tech bros they literally took out everything that worked about it to end up someplace entirely different than what they nominally set out to do. jackasses. utter fucking fools.

@djsundog Spuds MacKenzie died for our sins. And from massive alcohol abuse, which dogs are poorly adapted for.
