if you're reading this then you already know...


Anybody else notice the laziness in ads lately? Seems to be getting worse especially in commercial ads. Every ad exclaims "if you're reading this then you already know" everything there is about how amazing product xyz is and all its technical features and have of course seen all the reviews. The ads in question then proceed to provide no links and no further information.

This is still a hobby forum. Please take the extra 2.5 minutes to provide YOUR perspective and maybe some information. If I "already knew" everything as the ads claim - I guess I'd be plugging my iPOD into my BOSE system for perfect sound 'cuz they claim the same thing

I like your approach to lowballers especially the pun of low"ball"ers being castrated.
I thought I was the only one who used the rock, but I use it on Hitchhikers :)
Egad and gadzooks...ladies and gentlemen...children of all ages...this is the most colossal and stupendous...the most fantastic and amazing electronic device since Mister Edison invented the light bulb!!!! It will play the powerful and bombastic marches of John Philip Sousa, as well as the bird like fragility of a Jenny Lind Aria!

There is only one of these available for the most knowledgeable buyer...an aficionado of auditory delights, so act now...be the lucky and discriminating buyer and show that you are indeed a person of distinction and of the most ethereal taste. Questions need not be asked as this golden marvel of electronic circuitry will, indeed, answer any questions of its superiority all by itself!!!!
in between the sublime and the ridiculuous, a word to the wise is sufficient.

an ad should be designed to sell the product. if the wording is ambiguous, one of three things may happen:

the ad will be ignored, questions will be asked of the seller, or efforts to obtain information from another source will be implemented.

why such a fuss over trivia ? case closed.
