How can I tell when my emotions are real?

If they're being generated artificially to get you to buy tat, they're fake. If they're being generated artificially to get to you vote for something, they're real. Easy.

Not to mention the stwistas trying to "out-sensitive" each other.
It's artless commercial string pulling - buy a bloody vacuum cleaner and clean that dust up

What vacuum for........

Cynically manipulative focus-grouped cross-marketed piffle.

kindof.

[edit] what I really meant was that books, music and art are created to get you to buy things (mainly books, music and art). If people didn't buy them and feel emotions as a result then those things wouldn't exist. They're real emotions created by 'commercial' items, not fake emotions because there's an expectations that money will change hands as a result of their creation.

Bloody 3 yr old daughter is addicted to the advert already and she only saw it for the first time yesterday. Constantly "daddy can I see the penguin again". To be fair she has always loved penguins.

Went past a Costa Coffee yesterday with a bloody Christmas tree up. Why!!! I am not going to buy more coffee at christmas time. Fair enough to put up decorations near Christmas but not early November when you don't even sell christmas products!!

Someone, maybe JLS, need to put a bullet in this one. You're not a stoic marine who has just seen his buddy take one in the face, when he's only three days from retirement. You're just a bit of a ponce, who cried at an advert.

this.

+1.

making progress.

correctists.

and all the other big hitterisms

TBH wasn't all that touched by the JL advert.

The Pieces and Places one is brilliant, however.
