No more Tacomas? :cry:

Well considering the odds of a crackpot from b.f.a. controlling the world, i'd safe you can keep buying Tacomas till the end of time.
Were I to take over, Toyota would immediately start producing ads about how indomitable the ethnic Albertan spirit is, and how much they support marching and armbands.

Of course, their advertising agency would quickly be liquidated, and so the commercials wouldn't get very far into production, but it's the thought that counts.

I think the point of advertising is subliminal, nobody ever thinks it works on them.

Actually I think advertising works on me. I can think of things that I likely would not have purchased had I not seen an ad that reminded me or notified me of the product's existence.

Yeah, but that's only limited to military gear and computer games.
I am in the market for a laptop before I deploy, and no advertisment have worked on me.

QuoteA research note written by a 15-year-old Morgan Stanley intern that described his friends' media habits has generated a flurry of interest from media executives and investors.

We had a 15 year old "wunderkind" intern doing some spreadsheet and data work for us when I was with the consultancy firm a few years back, for a major multi-jurisdictional E911 communications center.
The fucker actually used Wiki as an annotated reference.

I somehow doubt that a 15 year old who works as an intern at a financial organization has his finger on the pulse of teenagedom.

And when does a teenager ever pay for anything? Their parents do.

I dunno. If I were to write that report I would come to fairly similar conclusions as I bet would the majority of teenagers and those who were recently so.

Teenagers' parents paying for things...Well yeah, mostly, but they do this  through pocket money. The teenager has £10 of his parents money to spend all week so he will be careful with it and spend it as if it were his own. Apart from pocket money most parents tend to just fund occasional extras like going to the cinema once in a blue moon and bus fair and whatnot.
