> So how come this doesn't work for me? I am not influenced by advertising in the least. I find it all equally annoying. Like all knowledge, this is probabilistic. Variance exists and a mechanism that will reliably cause an effect will not cause that effect to the same degree to 100% of the human population. Individual differences do exist. >I honestly cannot fathom why any intelligent human being would be influenced by something as unsubtle and obvious as advertising. Then you are ignorant of the workings and mechanisms of a very massive industry and research area. That is not a thing to be proud of.
