Well beer has certainly lived up to my as-advertised expectations in that arena!

Wow I just noticed this category, but what doesn't make sense is the dearth of Keynesian posts?

Dude collected 7 years worth of empty tubes of tooth paste?? Maybe there is a reason girls don't go out with him???
Advertisers have always employed wish fulfillment fantasies and classical conditioning to influence purchase decisions. Prospective customers are simply pavlovian dogs to them.

In that case where is my hope and change?

That was actually a very brilliant approach - kind of like when musicians use words like "this" and "it" in their lyrics. It makes the audience imagine and personalize what's being said based upon their own subjective reality and by the time that the "composer" is done with the "audience" the composer usually has the upper hand because the mark feels identification with the statesman.
Study after study have shown that those of us that brush our teeth with no toothpaste have cleaner, healthier mouths/teeth, than those that use toothpaste
What a waste

Yes but don't forget to floss. But only floss the ones that you want to keep.

Music (good music) does not have a dark purpose. I think what you are talking about is an extension of a marketing technique called. positioning.

You have to stand around waving at the chicks, taking on a cell phone and brushing your teeth with your prehensile dick to get the chicks' attention with your appealing commitment to oral hygiene.
Yes and occasionally lick your eye brows with your tongue.

At least he didn't expose himself in a supermarket in some weird costume with something-or-other in his behind.

Lawsuit: Toothpaste didn't get me any women
A man who has used Close-up toothpaste for seven years is suing the makers of the brand, saying it has not helped him attract ladies with fresh smelling breath as the ads suggest, according to video from geobeats.
Athony Olatunfe, 26, filed a lawsuit against Unilever Nigeria Limited, the owner of the product, demanding that it prove its claims with laboratory tests. In the Close-up ads, women are shown flocking to me after they brush their teeth, geobeats says.
Olatunfe says "no girl ever agreed to even go out for a tea or coffee with me, even though I’m sure they could smell my breath. I always brush my teeth with so much close up gel to make sure the girls get turned on by my fresh breath as they usually show on TV."
He submitted all of his used, half-used and unused tubes to the court as evidence. He accused the company of "cheating" and causing him "mental anguish."
