The Orwellian Nightmare

Dear surfers and readers, You might imagine that writers would be more concise in this computerised age. But no, advertising and marketing graduates are continually inventing new words and new concepts, all with the aim of selling more products to a gullible public.

The examples below are mindless hype. I urge you to call a spade a spade, please debunk such nonsense that pretends to be knowledge whenever you get the chance....

Seen in the bus: Nokia
"It's not just anyone's mobile phone. It's your mobile phone".
Country Energy
Their slogan, on every account and envelope: "It's your country".
And we are the Electricity Company!
