can I just say something?
I’ve been totally blown away by the response this blog has generated. Completely floored.
A co-worker has been pushing me to start this thing for months now, ever since I started instant messaging him gifs I found hilarious along with captions that described associated emotions and reactions. This has been going on since about halfway through December ‘11. Big thanks to him. #brohug

do you use the twitter?
If so, you should follow: @This_Ad_Life
Just started it today, but it will eventually consist of musings that complement the fun had here.
Spread the word with that hashtag thing or something: #thisadvertisinglife
Basically, just type thisadvertisinglife a lot in every aspect of your life and you should get results.
