The advertising industry has a bad reputation when it comes to drugs, cocaine in particular, because it’s basically impossible to turn your creativity on and off like a faucet and that’s exactly what the job entails.
So you do a little blow from time to time (to time to time to time to time), you get crazy ideas that normal people don’t have the confidence to so much as utter under their breath in a room full of people and you shout those fucking ideas from the rooftop of your swanky loft apartment at 4 in the morning because FFFFFUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK YYYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
Par for the course really. But you have to start worrying when the ads you write whilst grinding your teeth to dust in your mouth because you’re so unbelievably high all feature characters who are running around bug-eyed and incoherent and look like they’re unbelievably high.
I’ll never look at cereal bars the same way again.
