>Not an asshole, just an ignorant fuck
Well not for the reasons you originally assumed about me. You claimed I didn't know you guys have "cable TV or internet". Now you're moving the goalpost to "You don't know the locations of manufacturers." Which, I do happen to know, and I was already working under the assumption that these companies set up shop in other countries. None of what I said before conflicts with that notion.

And let me just add now: None of this petty squabbling over the recognizability of brands is helping your argument. Because knowing the brand is part of the problem in the first place. If they made up a fake brand name, then it would be no issue. Or if they just used generic terms like "mouth wash" instead of "listerine", then again: no problem. Their recognizability is the problem.

>And I explained to you how it's a retarded take on why she knows how to use Listerine and a bunch of how the outer world works
And I utterly dismantled your poor explanation in the very next post. >>15491930

>As a child, didn't you insist on going back to McDonald's or whatever new place your parents took you? Of course they're just finding some new food to be delicious so they act like children about it.
I might be able to accept this reasoning, if product name drops weren't so frequent. Or if their infatuation with the taco place was more natural sounding. But... Maybe you don't know what I'm talking about when I say glaring product placement. Maybe I'm trying to explain something that you don't have any knowledge of. It's a tonal thing. So if you're tuned to hear it, then you won't. Here... this video is very obnoxious, but it explains things https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxFFnd3tSNA

>I made an observation of how the listerine thing was not a matter of age or "internal logic", but rather a part of characterization with an everyday thing
It is a matter of internal logic. Because it BREAKS internal logic. If they wanted to characterize Carlyn as the type of person to try new and different things, then they shouldn't trample over Jennifer's character as the most knowledgeable healer to do it.
