No Thumping here.

The ranger ad, I have not seen.

Clearly, the message is 'Don't feed the Bears'...LoL-

I have a vague recollection of the 'diversification' ad.

Misogyny can come in the form of an ad like that!

A kind of psychological Trojan Horse...

I see it in that ad...but that's what keeps me going.

A creative take-off from the "Know Your Source" commercial.

QXLC..QXLC...QXLC...QXLC...QXLC...QXLC...

"Who?"

"Alright! I just bought 200 shares!"

"Why are you buying them?"

"They're in a hot sector!"

"Where did you hear about them?"

"I was watching tv. CNBC said SG Cowen has a $1000 price target on the stock!"

"What do they do?"

(Looking up the particulars)

"Oh..(stuptified).. they're projected to lose money this year and next."

Seemed funny at the time.
