if you read the post you would have seen that i was saying how futile
it is to try to "thwart" anything as powerful and ingrained as an
american corporation. fucking off at a focus group thwarts nothing
whatsoever, i just get $100 to sit on my ass and have some fun at
their expense. barely makes a dent but $100 means a helluva lot more
to me than it does chevy or budweiser. or even the ad agency that
made the commercial. i'm just having fun and making some money off
these swine :)

i wouldn't go so far as to characterize myself as anti-corporate. i
eat at mcdonalds, drive a GM car, buy apple computers, shop at ikea,
watch a fuck of a lot of television, buy newsweek, go to major motion
pictures, use electricity, buy gasoline, use toilet paper, use a
telephone, surf the internet, drink american beer, buy top 40 records
... anybody who does any of the above on a regular basis and claims to
be "fighting the system" is full of shit. which is exactly my point.
anti-corporate people cannot legitimately expect to stomp out the
corporate system because by living in america they are de facto cogs
in the system they are trying to "bring down."
