    I work in an agency of 30 people and this is what we do. We're all convinced we are so creative and clever, but the companies keep paying us, so I guess we are.

    Robots don't buy products? They do. It's called the stock market. They just use our money.

    LOL Great Ted Talk spoofs. I like how people are confused on what to think. Is this the truth? or is it all just a spoof?, is it a spoof that tells the truth?.

    I know the video is a parody, but sometimes I can't tell if the serious comments are ironic or they really don't understand this isn't real.
