I recently started using a sample of anti-perspirant that came in the mail and so daily I am faced with the image you see to the left. It occurs to me that the word "clinical" in this context has no meaning whatsoever. Its purpose is to attempt to make me believe there is something scientific about the way this particular anti-perspirant works, as opposed to the other, non-scientific anti-perspirants.

I think 99% of all advertising is either complete bunk or fluff. What does clinical mean here? Nothing. If you read most advertising carefully you'll REALIZE that its either unquantifiable (and therefore fluff) or else the results are so incredible as to almost guarantee that its a lie.
ReplyDeleteIf u need to know what shookey is then obviously u r not getting any shookey!!!
ReplyDeleteI stand chagrined.
ReplyDeleteCarrie, have you ever had mpurber? I just made that word up, but if you've had it you'll know what it means.
MPURBER
ReplyDeletehhmmm... that sounds "clinical".
I am pretty sure that I have never had it.
Joel I had it on a side of toast once.....
ReplyDeleteCarrie, that is disgusting. Please keep comments like that to yourself! Honestly, my opinion of you has just been demolished. I'll never be innocent again.
