lurichan I would have to disagree about there being "no being too cynicial". A healthy dose of cynacisim is okay, but being so cynical that you begin to spoil the fun of a small child when they are playing is just out and out wrong. Perhaps I think that adults are fair game to being critisized for their obvious ploys and low tricks, but children should be exempt from the scorn and contempt often associated with cynics. Using children as a tool to sell something is a deplorable thing though...*sigh* but it's not the child's fault. They are simply doing as they are instructed by an adult. People who made the ad=Pond Scum Children in the ad=/= Pond Scum =/= means not equal to Oh, no, children are exempt from cynicism..... unless they're unholy little things like I was. Then I have pity on their parents

Isobel Bellamy Rellik San No I've worked in advertising and sales, they really are pond scum. Trust me. There is no such thing as too cynical in this day and age to be honest. I usually like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but... anyone that can make an advert that's so insulting must have some kind of pond life in their family tree.... Is it me or is it getting worse? Just about everyday I find more things to get snarkier about. Or maybe it's just old age....
I know what you mean. Heres an accurate depiction of someone in sales and marketing when going to bed. "What did you do today honey?" "We made arsenic a treasured childhood food, the parents will love it, the slogan being 'are your kids too loud?'" And they sleep like babies in big houses or trendy inner city apartments. I hated the job and all I was doing was designing logo's.
And you are right, to a degree, there is more to be bitter about, but age also makes bitter about things that were always there, like when 13 year olds talk about the 90's as if they actually have any real memory of it themselves, that gets me really snappy. Also, Kurt Cobain (not nirvana but Kurt) fans that weren't even alive when he died moping about it. Thats before I get on to the post offices closing, the war, the price of bread and milk, the weather, the way people drive, movies of today, what they get away with saying on TV, politics, economics, and the youth of today having no respect... and I'm only 20.

Don't forget about how the movie rating system is failing us. We went and saw "Epic Movie" last night, and there was a lot more swearing in there than a PG-13 movie should warrent. ~_~

However people taking kids to see an 18 rated film then complaining its too violent.

I ssomehow wish to hear your opinion on drugs and arms dealers now, possibly polititians as well, it's great to hear a fellow snarky being rofl
Well, at 18 I was already one of those crotchey middle aged women that say "men only want you for one thing you know, so you might as well get a bit of fun out of it as well if he's just ging to use you".... in more of a cynical way rather than scorned woman way.
I don't think a child who at 4 told her parents she idn't want to be baptised because she was "ready to be good yet" was ever going to grow up in a normal way.... >.> <.< .....*ahem*

I more object to that film being a waste of money an tme rather than the swearing. I like parodies, but if you feel your audience needs it to be so damned obvious you#re ether an idiot yourself or obviously think very little of your fellow man......or a possible third option of you being a very bad writer...
