- lazycat, on 10/15/2009, -1/+14This is excellent and some of his lines are simply brilliant, like:
"We need actually to spend more time appreciating what exists and less time agonizing over what else we can do."
...and my absolute favorite: "Saving is consumerism needlessly postponed."
Thank you! Great find! - kylescousin, on 10/15/2009, -0/+11McDonalds does a pretty good job at this. We perceive those burgers as delicious, yet they're actually looking gross and disgusting,
- aralls, on 10/15/2009, -1/+6I wish Don Draper would give a TED presentation on how to sell anything and pick up tons of chicks
- stoanhart, on 10/15/2009, -2/+7The most entertaining TED talk I've ever seen.
- Tomasborlin, on 10/15/2009, -0/+4That was a ***** good lecture.
- MSP1, on 10/15/2009, -2/+5Advertising demeans us all.
- lebeagle, on 10/15/2009, -1/+4What no Shreddies in Australia ! and don't even think about palming of the square ones.

- ophello, on 10/19/2009, -0/+1No *****. And it's that very ***** travesty that created things like the ludicrous Pepsi/Coke rivalry, a ***** up prescription drug market, and 10,000 bottled water companies.
Advertising was meant to inform. Now, advertising IS the product, and there IS no information. Just hype, emotion, color, sound, texture. - Zubeneschemali, on 10/15/2009, -0/+1Vance Packard - The Hidden Persuaders
- inactive, on 10/15/2009, -2/+2ok wow, that was a great talk.
- LarkStew, on 10/15/2009, -1/+1Everyone knows Shreddies aren't diamonds, they're knitted by Nans.
- rrwest, on 10/15/2009, -0/+0Advertising = propaganda.
A simple equation with lots of possibilities...
Want to hear of a bridge that I can sell you?
How about a revolutionary new way to combat global warming?
Its a little device we call a "relocation camp" and its only for "undesirables", so you need not worry - for now. - Tyrghast, on 10/15/2009, -3/+3This man works for satan. If a day came by, one single day, where we were not advertised to in any single way (not even a logo) we wouldn't recognize the world.
- Lonandubh, on 10/15/2009, -2/+1Who is this We of whom you speak?
- ChileanGoD, on 10/15/2009, -4/+2Thus showing us in our faces what a bunch of shepple morons we are.
- ChileanGoD, on 10/15/2009, -4/+1But... the diamonds does taste better.
- stevenbrown, on 10/15/2009, -4/+1I love diamond shreddies
- ghatid, on 10/15/2009, -6/+2This was quite entertaining, though he disrespected us engineers quite a bit. He belongs in America where we are moving towards no longer adding value to the world.
