really?

you're the one that's all about proper timing, style, and presentation.

that's obnoxious bullshit that completely overwhelms the content. it can only serve to distract the reader from what they picked up the paper for in the first place. that is what people are mad about when they say they hate ads

yes, which is the context in which theadder references jobs

not as a person but as a collection of emotional responses to the idea of jobs and his cult of personality, i.e. the brand of jobs

if people seeing a thin in a movie makes them subconsciously want to buy it then it's morally wrong even if it wasn't intended as a brand placement

much like if you watch a Michael Moore doco and it makes you angry at George bush that's immoral
