    Cornmealish Brain-Burps:

    Does Burson-Marsteller do PR for PepsiCo/Frito-Lay?

    And how did George Wendt get so very influential?

    All these guys seem to know their way around a Funyon.

    Careful which Funyuns you eat or you could become a 'Flaming Hot' Normal.

    Is he talking about Elites or Yuppies? The high income, high education, people I know trust brand names, but only as a means to avoid research. i.e. if you're going to buy a Saturn you should research the shit out of it... But a BMW, you can basically pick one up out of the dented bin and it will still get you to at least 200,000 miles. Is that person really a sucker.

    Who I would consider a sucker would be the folks to go and buy Grey Goose bottle service because it scored the highest in taste tests.

    There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who get paid to divide people in to two arbitrary groups with no supporting evidence and those who don't.

    But when average Americans who gorge on Funyuns and video games get really good, they become LEET. It's all very confusing.

    Apparently the "exercise" part of the Elite set of parameters isn't applied if you run the polling...
