On the way to work today, I heard another piece of awful advertising. If you own an ATM card with MEPS capability, apparently you shouldn't call it an ATM card. It's called a Bankcard (or however you spell the damn thing)
At least that's what the ad's trying to tell me. It was a godawful 20-30s jingle that went along the lines of:
"... That's not an ATM card. It's a Bankcard! Call it by it's proper name, bla bla bla. Convenient payment, benefits bla bla bla that's the Bankcard. So call it by the correct name!"
(the tune to which this was sung is similar to how your 2 year old nephew belts out a random tune from reading a line in your morning paper)
What are these idiots trying to achieve? It's like an ad for handphones going "bla bla bla, it's a MOBILE PHONE not a handphone! So call it by the right name!"
I almost barfed up my breakfast laughing.
