Seems like almost everything he says is honest and accurate.

I agree. Maybe I’m demon-infested, but he didn’t seem particularity troubled to me.

“His toy ideas grossed nearly NINE MILLION DOLLARS last year alone.”

Seems quaint, though.

Judge me how you will, but I like him.

I am getting such an Irwin Mainway vibe from this guy

Glass’s view on advertising is both cynical and insightful. He was right about how other industries manipulate the insecurities that adults have.
