Just got divorced — why am I seeing wedding content? Social media algorithms may decide what life stage you slot into, and it's difficult to break out of it.

An Ad supported business model always puts the advertisers interests before the user experience. We are the product not the customer.

I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.

Courtesy is a big deal in the USA, especially in service industries like hospitality. Europeans are far less so, especially Brit’s who moan about everything 24/7. If it’s not the weather it’s traffic, their boss, grocery prices or their soccer team.

My insight about Americans abhorring silence comes from living in the US on and off for 30 years. The off part is 10 years working in other countries with Americans- filling the void is always referenced as ‘the American thing’ which I do as well. Don’t take it personal, that’s another US thing 😱

Nope, it’s very American to step in and fill the silent void before it becomes a pregnant pause. Americans cannot stand silence in any conversation. It’s “uncomfortable”

Jack in the Box shut down more than 70 stores, expecting more to close amid financial struggle Jack in the Box plans to close dozens of restaurants by the end of the year in an effort to cut costs and boost revenue.

Crap in the Box used to have great TV ads like Taco Bell until they learned customers were mostly high and/or drunk when they wanted fast food.
