#12: how to get distracted

saw a billboard for a pub the other day. had on it a s*ut holding some appetizers ever so near to her giant overexposed bussoms. and i thought to myself, "billboards are completely useless. and i hate them". if i wanted to go to a bar with the atmosphere of a french woman's armpit - i won't need to see a billboard for it, i'll just ask the neighborhood vagrant. "oh, it's a good thing i ordered the chicken wings here.. not only do they taste like a meaty sundried tomato, but are also the worst thing i've ever put in my face.. oh, and i just got chlamydia from this seat".

usually they're advertising something i don't want, can't use, or wouldn't want to use after seeing the billboard. i mean, what is the point? don't billboards cost like thousands of $/month? when's the last time you or antone you know saw a billboard and thought, "yes, definitely, i need that product. right now, in fact".

and i know there's a target market for everyone, but a half naked full breasted waitress with a lowcut faux referee jersey doesn't really stimulate my need for chicken wings. it stimulates my... eye rolling reflex. and another thing... uh, actually, i'll finish this thought later. it gets messy trying to type with bbq sauced fingers.
