a pinch of fun and a dash of grr
Reason #37273572737615322.6 Why I Adore Taylor Hanson:
From People.com:
What Song Would You Sing on Idol?
Taylor Hanson: A Michael Jackson song, something like "She's Out of My Life." It's an emotional song and obviously Michael Jackson is unbelievable, and very few people do that. I would probably get completely destroyed for it. Which would probably mean I wouldn't win.
XD
I particularly love the "I would probably get completely destroyed for it. Which would probably mean I wouldn't win." ROTFLMAO
++++
Thank You For Smoking?: (Hilarious movie, but that's beside the point.) Okay, I have to get back to trying to do my dreadfully irritating cigarette product assignment for my dreadfully irritating Integrated Marketing Communication class. I swear, I should be able to protest this assignment on the grounds that it's a threat to my ability to stay quit, as it is sometimes put. I'm supposed to essentially pretend that I'm a product manager for a tobacco company and write up an evaluation for a new cigarette product that has been described to us. Among other things, I'm supposed to identify the product category (a group of products that can be directly substituted for each other, and this means I have to look up other brands that would be similar to the pretend one I'm evaluating), describe and personify the target audience, and make up a questionnaire to develop potential purchaser reaction to the product.
In other words, I have to sit here and think about cigarettes and what aspects about people make certain people members of the target audience. Basically, I have to sit here and think about myself, circa 2001-2005. You'd think that would make this easier. And maybe to a certain degree, it does. But mainly it's just triggering cravings for a smoke. And that pisses me off.
So I hereby announce my resentment for this assignment. I already resent the professor, and this sure ain't helping. So there. :-P
