Nike has a commercial where bernie mac pretends to be preaching about basketball

another example is pop music, pop music back around 1999 was real POP music, now pop music is R&B even justin timberlake pretends to be R&B now same with britney spears
before it was backstreet boys,nsync, 98 degrees type of pop

yeah that is true...name one person who doesn't have the words memorized to 'hey ya'...

Umm, doesn't ring a bell...I guess you could count me

Anyway, McD charges about .20$ here for a ketchup. It's so irritating that I can't get as much ketchup as I want, but that I have to think of it in advance and pay for it. Grr, that's why I don't like McD. Besides, they don't have anything bigger than Big Mac here. And Big Mac is actually quite small.

its all based on my superiority and associations psychological theory, which basically strives to say we want to be as superior as possible and we learn at a very early age that the only we we can do this is by association.

I think why sex sells, is because we strive to be sexy (have sex). The advertisement simply takes our natrual stimulus (to be sexy) and conditions this with the product (McD hamburgers mmmm sexy).

Or using my theory you strive to be superior and are taught that superior people use this product, so you infer upon it a positive association.
