There was a subreddit called HailCorporate for when people accidentally post ads that they made themselves. Like we hear so much advertising that we start internalizing it and end up basically thinking and talking in ads.

Of course it kind of typically devolved into accusations of intent, but I always thought it was a neat idea. Does life imitate art or the other way around type of thing?

Thanks for listening.

I always thought it was for calling out guerilla marketing, but I guess there is a sort of Poe's Law to marketing lol.

I watch the Superbowl for the ads! 🤪🤪🤪

I'd be slightly less pissed off about constantly being advertised to if all ads had the same level of effort put into them that superbowl ads do
