That's messed up. That's what poor kids do. My friends and I are either rich or middle class. He must be poor. Pfft. :P Print media is not irrelevant. I like reading a good informative book or two. Or maybe a novel. Yeah. Agree with the FaceBook thing. It is still alive and kicking. I do listen to the Radio. 'Intrusive' advertising is not unpreffered. There is not truth on the Sony Ericsson thing. They are nice. It just depends on the person. It's the same with the other brands like Samsung and L.G. What the fuck? I do watch live T.V. Overall, I see this Matthew Robson guy as a typical kid (who I think are losers) used to free stuff. These are mostly immature. They have no long term goals. They are pathetic. I would like to emphasize my approval of the teens don't use Twitter thing, though.

Typically you have to be a real writer of some sort and not some random blogger like 99% of us internet folk. Say what you will about the future of print...at least whenever I saw someone's name in print, it added a great deal of credibility to whatever they said (afterall, not only did the publisher pay to publish their words, so did the advertisers!).

When someone buys a shirt with 'Abercrombie and Fitch' written on it, it's because they bought the shirt from A&F and don't mind other people knowing. We do the same things with appliances (I bet your dishwasher or fridge says its brand on it) and cars (I can't even think of a production vehicle that doesn't have its model and brand written on it), but you're not calling for those companies to pull their name of their own product! Now, if people went to A&F and started buying shirts that said Coca-Cola and Nike on them, that would be ridiculous, and I think you would find that they wouldn't sell well. It's fine to put your own name on your own product- but it's really annoying to see other brand names in our face, trying to distract us from the issue. I don't mind finding out that your shirt is from A&F (although I might think you're kind of a tool), but I would mind if you had a bright ad that flashed and made noise to get my attention plastered on the front of your shirt.
