Advertising agency victims
Here's a forum to rant about advertising, the ultimate tool of The Man, when you're stuck on the inside of the big machine that makes all those clever (and not so clever) little magazine, TV, radio, newspaper and billboard ads.
Just because we're about advertising doesn't mean it's a place to sell your wares, your pyramid scheme or your crappy community. In fact, this is probably the worst target market to try to sell to, unless you work for Communication Arts.
We reserve the right to delete anything deemed spam or just crappy.
