I go out of my way to avoid using products that are advertised at me. Out of spite.

I have never bought native brand products specifically because the ads were all over the place and obnoxious. It created a negative association with the brand. The ads literally convinced me to do exactly the opposite of what it wanted.

You know what the last ad I cared about was? Cowboys herding cats. No idea what it was for, just a hysterical idea executed with absurd dedication to the bit.

weird. I don't think I've ever seen an advertisement for a native product. people just go buy them on res because they're cheaper and word of mouth is all that's required

“It’s natiiiive…”

No. Fuck off. It wasn’t cute when old spice did it. It’s no better when you do it.

It’s their marketing jingle

If they can afford advertising then it’s ripping you off. Doesn’t have to be out of spite.
