Marketing works

Last night I was helping my daughter study for a test and Laissez Faire government came up. I had company so the room was full of adults and we were all trying to remember what it was. None of us could remember.

Later that night, someone said the words "I am stuck on bandaid brand" and all of us instinctively finished it saying "cuz bandaids stuck on me!"

Americans are raised on media and I thought it was hysterical that we couldn't remember what a form of government was (that all of us had been tested on many times) but could recite a marketing jargon that we hadn't heard in eons.

Typical Americans. ; )
