"kaeli" wrote One thing, though - I DESPISE the Quiznos ads with those rat things. I now hate Quiznos and would never go there. Me too! I don't like the blockbuster video hamster ads either. I think it is the anthropomorphizing (sp?) that makes them so icky. It would be funnier to see a human walking around acting like a cat. As to the free will thing - lots and lots of people in this world aren't all there in the head. They're already predisposed to do bad or stupid things and a little encouragement is all they really need. Kids are still imitating that horrid Jackass show, FCOL. To assume people even have common sense gives people too much credit. Sure, most of us aren't going to go cutting heads off cats because of a car ad, but all it takes is one idiot who laughs, says it's really funny, and decides to try it...and that's just the idiots. Some people are not just idiots, but truly cruel. I don't even want to go there. All true. I try not to think about the walking wastes out there who are so numb they seek out the most horrific experiences just so that they can manage to FEEL something. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

However, one should use passive voice sparingly. In scientific and technical writing, passive voice is preferable to active. Sorry, but it isn't.
