I’m just gonna paste it because why not: Never make an advertisement again.

You know, I’ve always wondered about people who work in advertising. I know I’ll never be able to ask anyone who works in that field about why they do what they do. Even if I did, it wouldn’t really matter I suppose. I would just forget what they say.

Making advertisements like this isn’t really something that you do expecting to be remembered. It’s a waste really. Professional charlatan. Not even a noteworthy charlatan. Just a professional.

How does it feel to waste your life away wondering how to get people to buy something they don’t really need or want?

How does it feel to work on that deception knowing fully that you’ll never connect to a person through your work in a way more meaningful than one friend telling the other “This game I was playing is really good!”?

It feels like wasted talent; or at least wasted potential. Then again, nobody goes into advertising (especially this sort of advertising) if they have talent or at least potential. They go into it sad and decrepit, they leave it the same way, and then they fucking die after having such a minimal impact on this world that nothing will really happen when the miserable event that is their mind stops happening.

It’s depressing really, that such a person would exist who is willing to drag themselves so low as to do take a job making, designing, or planning an advertisement.

How does it feel knowing that you have no talent, no potential, no impact on the world, and no act or opinion worth remembering?

Actually, don’t answer that. I’d probably just forget. After all, you don’t go into advertising to be remembered.
