  • I would hate to try to do it but I imagine the horn does wear out eventually. I myself have maybe used the ‘start a fight with strangers’ button on my car a dozen times in my life, so no personal experience. If I still talked to my sister I could ask her, she drives like it’s GTA:Nebraska and expects everyone else on the road to do the same.

    This is an example of it going poorly but advertisers to an extent do it on purpose. Kool-aid gets used to refer to powdered drink mixes like band-aid is used to refer to adhesive bandages and, in some regions, coke is used to refer to soda in general. The idea is to become so associated with the concept as to overshadow the competition.

    I mean, I’m pretty sure we’ve got enough research down at this point to make non-lethal dog food without testing to make sure, probably still a good idea to make sure Rex still wants a bowl before slapping it on the shelf, but I think we’re past the point of trying to market the Purina One Arsenic, Chocolate, and Grapes brand of kibble.
