I feel the same about SEO stuff. Stuff that’s designed to attract peoples attention doesn’t just not work on me, it often repels me. Some of it actively irritates me. Some of it I can’t even stand to look at.

      really? I think its a prime example. Compare mcdonalds to burger king, of which i cant think of an applicable jingle. music is a type of media and any form of media can be a vehicle for ‘propaganda’, a very broad term itself

        Maybe it’s because I don’t own a TV or radio, but I’ve heard more parodies of it than heard sincerely. It’s like hearing a Weird Al parody 1000 times before listening to the original.

        Edit: Also, no jingle is going to make me cross a picket line or break my boycott of Americans. It’s as effective as the Kars4Kids commercials to me. I don’t own a car.
