My works PC is a mess going to have to go get it fixed at my nearest office 100 miles away Don't have time for this
Anyways, back on(ish) topic.
I was visiting the US of A a few years back, and was enjoying an evening meal with my team and their families. I was having a pleasant chat with my boss's husband, who asked me if I'd seen the "xxxx advert" on the TV (I forget what it was actually for). I said, yes I'd seen it, and very thankfull I was too that it had warned me off ever trying the product. He asked what I meant. I said that any product that felt the need to advertise itself three or more times per advert slot was obviously incapable of creating a good opinion on its own merits, and therefore the advertisers felt the need to brainwash the less fortunate gullible masses into purchasing it by giving it such high exposure that people would buy it in the hopes of getting the ads off the telly.
He was gobsmacked.
Turns out he was the high flyer in charge of that particular advertising account Dr. Ian Malcolm:
"Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."
Transgenic tomato anyone?

I must admit that afterwards, I laughed so hard that I nearly experienced that very side effect you mention
Luckily the guy still talked to me afterwards and I didn't get my pink slip on the back of it
It's the Johnson's and Johnson's Anal thermometer you need to look out for. A quick check of the small print will tell you it's been personally tested ....Dr. Ian Malcolm:
