I hated the books before I worked for the company that made them, and I still do. That mentality always bugged the shit out of me. I'm not a dummy! I want to be more than stupid!

there was a shampoo in an aerosol can called "Psssssst." You sprayed it on and combed it out and your hair was supposed to be clean. It wasn't. Horrible product, horrible name.
