The level of sexual inundation I see around me has momentarily escalated my constant irritation to the high mountains of pissed off. It seems like every advertisement that flashes across my window is a pair of breasts and a smile, and I'm lucky if I get the smile. I understand that this is what we're programmed to do, biologically speaking, but we're "programmed" to do a lot of shit that we've largely cut out by now. Haven't we?
Saw an add for something or other on Grooveshark the other day. Was some MMO with grandiose claims of millions of players and "be the master of the realm." The image was just a close-up of some computer-simulated woman's breasts. What's really disappointing about this situation is that advertisers would not be doing it unless studies had shown it to be effective. That's what really pisses me off about it; I know it works. It never fails to catch my eye. I spent years working through my middle-school sexual repression and now sidebar ads are going to undo all my hard work.
I'm up too late again. I slept too late today. I don't have much to get up for. I'm not going to sleep very well once I go to bed anyways.
I hope there are some anonymity settings on this thing. Might have to scrap it if not.
