       Why are there commercials for milk? Who still doesn't know about milk?

       @westly I sometimes think this about dominant brands, like who needs reminding that Coke & Maccies are there?

       @patterfloof You do. We all do.One of the misconceptions about advertising is that it is meant to introduce you to new stuff.No, it is meant to make you BUY stuff impulsively - new or not.Ads for already-established brands focus on getting you to make an impulse purchase the next time you see the logo. That's why they focus so hard on the instant-gratification reactions on the actors' faces.Don't go down this rabbit hole if you want to retain your sanity.
