Tit-for-Tat

Urban Christian hipsters are an standoffish bunch of folk, among many other characteristics that make socialization difficult. I think I'm becoming one more and more, 'cause I'm noticing the same things about myself. I hate it.

Also, every day for the last week or so, I've seen one of those ad airplanes flying over east Philly that totes a banner advertising Ge!co insurance. There's one banner w/ that damn gecko, and another one w/ that damn caveman. Honestly. I hate it when a company takes an already lousy attempt to have a funny marketing scheme, and totally plays it up like it's the funniest thing ever. Not because of public support, but because they've clearly got the dough to push anything, including something as ri-di-cu-lous as those two ad icons. Maybe they're trying to appeal to people who need constant repetition or whatever to understand jokes, semi-humorous things, etc. Which I guess would be fine, because there are certainly folks like that, just like there are folks who understand jokes and semi-humorous things just fine. For me, the ads are SO. DUMB.

And that is all.
