Selective Amnesia

Shut up and change the channel

It so happens that advertising is so banal, so common these days, everybody think they can do it, and every body think that they know all about it, and that rankles me.

Advertising, owing to its nature – an anonymous art form – commercial art form that is owned by the society – is always the object of ridicule. Which is ok. But when every man on the road believes he is the world’s best copywriter and starts coming up with ads, now, then is when I mind. If you are so bloody brilliant and creative, why don’t you work for a few days in the agency pal? Why do you want to work for that BPO or the lousy engineering firm as you say?

BTW - this post is a carryover from the current post at Chicken Rules blog – do read that.
