Things that are just not necessary

I read in the weekend smh about "whisper marketers" who bugger up your dinner party or your train trip (should you be lucky enough to have one of those) spruiking brands in the guise of conversation.

Obviously, that's stupid and irritating. However it's not as stupid and irritating as the ad for french holidays that arrived in a magazine today. When you open it, it plays "je t'aime". And it's not even the immortal Abigail version.
