Foul Language Leads To Drug Use?
The first week of March in California will be “Cuss Free Week”. Â There no actual enforcement, more so the assembly hopes to encourage people to watch their potty mouths. Â They believe this will bring about more harmony in the community.
Those who are a part of this action go further to say that foul language leads to other behavioral problems like drug-use.  Now, perhaps if you do drugs you may cuss a lot, but I’m fairly certain the cussing a lot did not lead to the drug use itself.  I personally have never woken up, said “shit”, and then had a compulsion to follow it up with a line of coke…like one follows good sex with a cigarette.
The “Cuss Free Week” satisfied someone’s special interest and let the CA General Assembly charge their tax payers for working so diligently for the betterment of the state.  The state economy is shit, but god-damn it, we gave the first week in March a purpose; now fund our next campaign, thank you.
1969 Ad Against Cable TV
It’s reassuring that misleading marketing has a long rich history in our society.
This ad wasn’t about how bad “pay TV” is for the consumer. It was about how the movie theaters would lose money if you could sit at home and watch movies for a monthly charge.
The ad blatantly misrepresents the “pay TV” has the same exact programming as “free TV”. If that were true, the cinema industry wouldn’t have bothered to make a commercial and post petitions. I’m sure that movie industry wishes they had found better ways to slay the cable-dragon.
