I honestly believe that advertisements do not effectively work on me. They do work on kids, and kids work on their parents and that's the problem with marketing specifically to children

Comercials are lab-designed propaganda; I can guarantee it works on you the same as everyone else.

But I don't really buy anything other than essentials. Brands mean nothing to me and I just buy whatever is the best deal / not total crap

the way you interpret value probably influences your purchases, so if they can subvert your value system with marketing they gotcha

Commercials only work if you watch them a lot which I'm starting to guess you don't. Keep it that way.

I understand how effective marketing can be. For someone with disposable income and the pathological desire to spend it, I'm sure its very effective. If someone wants to buy a new vehicle but is undecided on the make, an additional can probably sell that car to them.

Not everyone is like this. I make purchases bases on a sliding scale of quality and price. I'm sure this true for many people.

Studies show that people who think this are actually more susceptible to ads and commercials.

for what it's worth. not saying you're wrong (good for buying value items and shopping in thrift stores imo) but to discount advertising as something that only works on children is naive imo.

Same. Except I use an adblock.

E: it can be fun to spot the ideological concept that high value commercials are trying to sell tho.

I remember her, my kid used to watch her show when she was really young and then she got knocked up by some famous guy's brother who was a lot older than her, I forget who. I think it was Zac and Cody, about 2 young boys from a broken home who were really neglected by their parent who had custody. It was a goofy comedy.

Actually, I take it back.

According to this her pregnancy was just a rumor but she didn't deny the rumor for 4 years, and I only heard it the one time and never followed up.

But she was still young and cute and her bfriend was old and gross so she's still kind of guilty of something.

His ancestors must have been Aztecs.

How and why did the conquistadors let some of them live is the question
