I just realized I have no idea what NBC advertising is trying to go for, is it supposed to be cute, smart, funny, dramatic. Well there was this news ad they had at the train station and it was all like, I like what other networks (not NBC) are doing and try to make like this weird perverted RPG Maker custom menu version of news shows in the 90s, like a meta-version where it's almost like a saturday night live sketch of what everyone thinks a news program is supposed to look like or a music video with fake news/The Onion/somewhere I heard porn stations have like porn version of the news?. Giving off that whole faux-AUTHORITY feel like 'you must get the news from us/also TV news is an essential public service in the year 2011/like weird information-y authority figure integrity sort of look and NBC is like 'we want to exploit the NBC peacock/rainbow to appeal to hipsters or something but we need to do it in combinations of colors that don't look like we are saying something about gays'

I'm not even sure what I'm talking about really

gah

my favorite style of promos is still the way Fox always did it (character from the show is in some abstract dramaspace and gives an intense look/chuckles at camera and/or has their hair blowing from some unknown source of wind)

I know this is obsessive this is more of a 'I could do advertising better than those guys' post

trying to rewire my old broken squire guitar (during a manic episode last year it dismantled it, doused it in white spirit and set it on fire. I have since painted it's remains white and gold. It has the laughing man from GOTS-SOC on the head, and the neck has Jack Kirby style circuitry down it in gold perminant marker)
Needless to say, it doesn't work. But it looks pretty. And I have an Ibanez Jem, so I don't really care.

it is really weird to not know if tons of people I care about, really great, intelligent people might not be able to have a future due to their financial situation. because of choices other people have made for them. it's really awful.

everything we are doing just feels like we are PUNCHING A BRICK WALL.

they are pretty much getting rid of anything liberal arts/important/worth taking classes at the college in my town. they are also cutting disability services, daycare for single mothers, and other important things. without bothering to look at any alternatives which people have been presenting. they aren't willing to speak with the professors or students on this either. a lot of really great professors are losing their jobs. and they are putting idiots in their place - people who are not even qualified to work in these positions.

it's really aggravating.

I'm really sorry to hear that. i know cutting that sort of stuff can really fuck people's lives for a long time if for good.

Now that I'm a single recluse again I decided to add this place to my Firefox button bar again.

History repeats itself I guess. Turning your back on your creativity to spend time with some girl is dumb. It should be a crime.

Never again.

The Chain Game is back in HB's hands,- hopefully he'll be able to add more to his section.
