That appalling advert just about sums up the vacuity that has characterised much of this decade. It is the 'high point', the full realisation, the moment of fruition of all the nebulous cultural currents that have infiltrated music, TV, advertising, communications etc. It is bereft of any meaning whatsoever, it is truly a void. Words cannot describe how utterly awful it is...

The idea that mediocrity can rise purely through exposure in new mediums is indicative of the something-for-nothing generation. It's just pile after pile of runny **** being thrown against a fan in the hope that some of it will be blown across the room. It's all so...so....it won't.....I can't.....
*froths*
Unfortunately we dwell in a country, a world where mediocrity is applauded maybe even encouraged and where the cream drowns in a flood of averageness.
Exhibit A: this season's X Factor. I saw the show about a week or so ago; rarely have I been so utterly underwhelmed.
Meh, the X-Factor is just another reinvention of the "talent" show format that has been on telly since the days of Hughie Green and Opportunity Knocks. People look at telly through rose tinted glasses. Apart from occasional highlights, it has always, always been crap.
Got confused for a minute then and thought you were talking about your posts on SZ :whistling:
