Bump for personal reasons
 
I am noticing lately a lot of radio ads with terrible sound effects. Like they want a sound like someone taking a chomp of something crunchy and delicious - so they have a sound - but it sure as hell ain't really that. I don't know what it is - and I guess it is close enough that I at least can tell that's what they're going for - but it is just some computer generated stupid noise.

Same with a ferocious animal rrrrowrrr.

Those sounds have to be available in the world. There must be stock sounds for audio media just like there are stock pics for visual. Why the fuck not just use them? I don't even have good hearing and I can tell you're totally bogus.



Sounds that aren't the sound ----> don't do it.
 
So I keep hearing ads for a store called Sail. Apparently they sell clothes and gear for hunting/fishing. Outdoorsy stuff.

But every ad is always about explaining their name. It's always a variation on someone saying, "Hey you should go to Sail."

"Sailing?"

"No not sailing. Sail!"

Because they're not about sailing. Even though the name might make you think that.

But no.

And then they try to explain who they actually are.



Here's my take: if you're that insecure and defensive about it, just change the fucking name.

Every once in awhile I encounter this logo which I find to be, I dunno - just keep that guy away from my kids.

"root" A Kiwi/Australian slang that is used in place of the more commonly used term "fuck."

I'm 99.9% certain Mr Rooter has zero franchises in Australia. I have not googled it though so I'm not 100% sure.


Urban Dictionary: root

1. A Kiwi/Australian slang that is used in place of the more commonly used term "fuck."

In Georgia, control of the U.S. Senate hinges on two runoff elections that will unleash up to $800 million in ad spending over the next seven weeks, mostly on local TV.

How much advertising? Tanenblatt thinks each race will ultimately exceed the $280 million record for a Senate seat set this year in North Carolina. With two seats open in Georgia, that’s almost $600 million, including about $202 million spent through the end of October. Democratic political consultant Rick Dent recently said the combined races could hit a total of $1 billion.
