Mad Men(tal Deficients)

AITOOW listens to commercials? In that AT&T commercial in which the dad brings his daughter's monkey along on his business trip, the song they pair with it says "Sweet thing. Apple of my eye. You're the only reason I keep on coming home". Didn't the advertising agency ot Ma Bell find it strange that this song expresses the sentiment that the daughter is the only reason he comes home? If it were just the wife, he wouldn't bother. Nice message. It's not like you couldn't choose any song you wanted. And nice content awareness. Another case of negligence in the ad world. That's why they get the big bucks. Worthless industry. And the funny thing is they fancy themselves artistes. Oh, I just thought of something. He's doing his daughter AT&T and you're enabling it.
