Is it just me ? Or can some of the demographic see it too ?

While watching some stuff on SyFy and they've run an advert for "Olay" products of some sort.

Ok fine, but the advert starts off saying how wonderful the product is (to be expected), then the dialogue changes to the challenge of whether you believe it or not, some statistics and more of how wonderful it is.

I suppose that's the nature of advertising, but there's been plenty of factual info about how none of this age reducing shit doesn't work, etc. So why are people, of whatever demographic so gullible ? With the products aimed at them ?

I know I'm not perfect, but I try to be as cynical as I can be. As I know that these people are professional con merchants, who're only concerned with extracting the contents of the wallet/purse.......

Of course, its a bit dramatic and excessive, but it would be nice to be able to have a few of the biggest piss takers and have them executed and hung up with signs on them to warn the rest.

Ha! The same would apply to these banking and other financial incompetents.....

I'm convinced that you'd only need to do a few, to be an example to the others and then get the message out.

Ok, so I realise that that sort of thing would be over the top..... but I'm equally convinced that our politicians need a kick up the arse to realise that they weren't voted in just to do what they "think" we want them to do, but to actually find out what the majority want and to sort it out.

Yet they don't. They use all the spin and other shit to convince us that "they know best".......patronising cunts, one and all, irrespective of political allegiance....
