There's one of these not too far from me and so few people do actual banking anymore that the tellers just play Connect Four all day (why not just look at your phone?)

There's been an ad during the NBA playoffs where it's revealed that Capital's c-tier Bradley Cooper knockoff spokesperson sleeps in the café and never leaves. I can think of few lives more depressing than the one suggested by this ad.

The website for The Other Side of the Brain is wacko.

"CREATION AND PRODUCTION OF ORIGINAL MUSIC, VERY SIMILAR TO KNOWN TRACKS FOR INTERNET USAGE (INSTEAD OF CLEARING A SONG WITH FAMOUS CATALOGS, WHICH REQUIRES PUBLISHING AND MASTER RECORDING CLEARANCES FOR ONE TITLE, AND THE TIME TO DO SO)"

There's no way this isn't someone's undergrad project.

"WE CARE ENORMOUSLY ABOUT THE KNOWN MUSIC WE SELECT, AS IF IT WERE OUR OWN ORIGINAL MUSIC CREATION. BECAUSE OF WHAT WE DO AND THE RANGE OF TALENT WE HAVE ACCESS TO, WE ARE CONSTANTLY EXPOSED TO SOME OF THE BEST MUSIC EVER RECORDED, FROM ALL PARTS OF THE GLOBE WITH FAMOUS OR UP-AND-COMING ARTISTS. MOREOVER, WE’VE PRODUCED MUSIC IN COLLABORATION WITH MANY MUSIC LABELS, COLLECTIVES AND ICONIC DJS AND THIS ENABLES US TO BE ALWAYS AT THE FOREFRONT OF WHAT’S NEW AND INTERESTING, THAT IS ALSO NOT MAINSTREAM AS YET."

Fuckin' rights, dudes.
