Nick Drake Ringtones?
Oh god. I just looked at my sponsored google ads and there were four all lined up in a row with the title "Nick Drake Ringtones." This makes me sad and scared.
I understand that the greatest hope of advertisers is to deliver ads that are tailored to their audience. I have Nick Drake on my interests list, so maybe I would like Nick Drake ringtones? I can't remember the last time an ad on the internet or elsewhere actually made me excited about a product or service. Not only am I becoming immune to ads, but I am actually developing an allergy. We have cable tv at work now, so whenever we go to hook up a laptop to our big screen we have a few moments of daytime tv or commercials. 3 seconds of a dish liquid commercial cause me to want to punch someone in the face. Did the "women's movement" (whatever that was) NOT WORK AT ALL?? I think I actually shrieked. Then there was the sexy tic tac tongue juggling which made me put my face on my laptop keyboard and weep.
No. I don't want a Nick Drake ringtone. The man killed himself, probably because he had the foresight to realize that one day his songs would be sold off for .99 each as compressed electronic crap for mobile phones. I would kill myself if I knew that was the future. I really would.

Nick Drake ringtones. I am of the opinion that ringtones should be banned most of time I find that my phone is on vibrate it much more environmentally friendly and I still know when a call is comingv in. Though I haved to say I spend most of the time using text or im-ing.
and that tic tac ad is the wrongest thing I've seen in some time.
