Trippin’ in the Board Room

First, sing the title of this post to the tune of “Smokin’ in the Boys Room.”

Now: some years ago I came up with the theory that advertising agencies were administering hallucinogenics to their employees; to me, this could explain conclusively the bizarre imagery and surreal Dali-esque logic that permeates modern ads.

Finding a note I wrote on the topic, I charged ChatGPT with writing a short script about this very thing. The result was not stellar and I hope to get back to it and revise it into a useful script.

In the meantime I read the article below in the New York Times and realized I, as Jed Clampett would say on The Beverly Hillbillies, “ain’t fur wrong.”
