The stupid computer company that thinks it owns Allston/Brighton

Harry Mattison is getting seriously annoyed at the company putting its ads all over everything, including local parks. He doesn't name the company, because he doesn't want to give them publicity, but may he should so everybody can join in sending hate rays their way.

Ummmm...how about every company marketing every one of their products in every possible location, parks and other "inappropriate" places often included, throughout metro Boston, anyway? And what constitutes an inappropriate place? I think we just need to learn to accept that soon you won't be able to swing a dead cat around here without hitting some form of advertising, if we're not at that point already.

Joke's on the company, though. I mean, how many kids are going to run into that park, past that sign, climb onto Santa's lap, and ask him for hi-tech software applications?

Second joke's on them, too, because the ads because they make absolutely no sense.

The best way to protest advertising? Put up advertisements that emphasize the dangers of advertising, just as some people recently protested protesting.

I'm against picketing, but I don't know how to express my feelings in this situation
