Know this: if your commercial spot EVER uses phone dings/notification noises, cop sirens, or a fire alarm, I will NEVER use your product.

I can't remember who told me about this book, but I'm loving it. I would recommend listening to it because he does examples of the things he talks about.
It's wonderfully relatable, for something that could be very technical. Thank you for the suggestion!

Blackout and power outages are such a pain in the ass in the summer. It's so hot, no AC, food goes bad. But you just go to the park or sweat it out.
But, now, with AI slop leading the way, get ready for winter power outages. Where the sun is set, pipes burst, and people freeze to death. FUN!

I don’t want any gifts this year. None. Nothing
But I like giving gifts. I like wrapping and festooning! So I’m gonna go ahead and give you a gift.
Please don’t.
You’ll love it.
Grr. Ok, how about this? Why do you lovingly wrap and festoon a gift of “nothing?”

“She never cared much for secrets. But now, she had her own.
She’d come to realize that a deep secret wasn’t a rock weighing you down.
No, it was more like a thick smoke filling your soul, and that weight was the grounding comfort of knowing something that “they” didn’t.”

I’m not saying it’s their best song or recording (might not even be top 20) but if you listen to the Beatles’ song “Magical Mystery Tour” on good headphones, it will make you question every mix you’ve ever done or heard.

There’s something about Glen Powell. Not saying if it’s good or bad, just “something” like deep behind his eyes. I never noticed it until he was just talking in the monologue. There’s “something”
