I love me some subliminal social media marketing! Give me more adverts please!

Hey! How are you, how was your day? You seem a little grumpy, kinda off, everything good?

Anyway, let me tell you about mine: woke up to my Apple iPhone alarm, immediately checked Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok, Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, and YouTube, rolled out of bed, threw on a Nike hoodie, Levi’s jeans, and Adidas sneakers, grabbed a Starbucks pumpkin spice latte, hopped into an Uber while blasting Spotify through my AirPods, then got to my place and opened my Microsoft laptop, fired up Google Chrome, and bounced between Amazon, Netflix, YouTube, Wikipedia, LinkedIn, Reddit, and eBay like I was speedrunning the internet.

Around lunch I hit McDonald’s for a Big Mac, fries, and a Coca-Cola, thought about Chick-fil-A and Taco Bell but the line was insane, paid with my Visa, checked my Bank of America app, then wandered into Walmart, Target, and Costco just to buy stuff I didn’t need, ended up looking at Samsung TVs, LG appliances, Sony headphones, and a random KitchenAid mixer like I was about to become a whole different person.

Later I grabbed a Dunkin’ iced coffee, kept scrolling TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts like my brain was running on autopilot. Got home, microwaved some frozen Nestlé food, turned on my Samsung TV, opened Netflix, considered Disney+ and Hulu, then sat there half-watching while checking emails on Gmail and pretending I had my life together.

What about yours?

Big Rabbit pushing us around again.

I was trying to weed my garden planter to plant stuff for spring a couple weeks ago and started ripping up big chunks of grass/roots that had grown in there. One of them pulled up a big thing of fur. Was confused until I looked to see what it was. Saw a pile of little baby bunnies. Ended up just covering them back up with the fur and going back inside. My laziness took that as a fuck it guess that's their spot now.

I probably should have weeded the rest and still planted, but I figure the bunnies will probably eat whatever I plant there anyways

Don't let big rabbit tell you where you can and can't grow your food!

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Don't those bunnies deserve a garden right at their doorstep?? XD I hope the gardening goes well!

do you consider advertisements people who use coke, cyberpunk, frisbee, jet ski, photoshop or roomba?

Just because Americans are comfortable with genercising brands doesn't change the fact that they're subliminal marketing/advertising.

If anything your link should wake people up to the power of these adverts and why they should be resisted.

I vacuum my floor, I don't Hoover™ my floor.

I search, I don't Google™.

I travel or taxi, I don't Uber™.

If you're free to use corporate trade names for verbs, instead of commonly understood verbs. Then surely by the same logic I'm free to ridicule that usage?

Every language I know of does this

Probably not, I do this every chance I get while delivering. Even if the pet is in the window and I have to take an absurd angle to get both the food and the pet in the shot lol.
