Hater keeps on hatin'

Hamilton Nolan from Gawker is at it again.

I’m not sure what this guy’s grudge against the ad industry is, but he must have been hurt really badly at some point. Maybe he mistakenly purchased Parkay thinking it was butter when he was younger. Or perhaps he really wanted that silly rabbit to get some Trix.

Who knows?

But whatever scarred poor Mister Nolan back in the day surely left its mark. It seems to be his mission in life to take down the ad industry. This, despite working for a site, Gawker, that keeps itself afloat by selling ad space. 

I’m sorry if the Kool-Aid Man never smashed through the wall into your home as a child. I’m sorry if your bottle of Mrs. Butterworth’s never sparked up a conversation at the breakfast table. And I’m heartbroken that you never had your vegetables served to you by a giant green dude in a leafy toga.

But get over it dude.

You don’t like advertising. Join the club. I know we’re not the most popular industry in the world.

But most ad haters simply choose to ignore us. You, on the other hand, seem obsessed. Which makes me wonder if you don’t secretly love us.

Methinks thou dost protest too much.
