I've been watching a lot of TV--my brain won't absorb more than about twenty minutes of reading, but I can let plot and dialogue just roll off me. Unfortunately, the very last part of my brain to cry "hold, enough!" is the part that noodles with language, and it's been giving me trouble.
Macy*s advertises their sales with a bit of lively jive music in which multiple voices chant "One Day!" at intervals. Gets repetitive after the first 500 viewings, but tolerable. Except that the one-day sale this week is on Wednesday, with "a preview day on Tuesday." Preview day? Either they mean that today you can come in and admire all the things you're not going to be able to get a discount on until tomorrow (which seems a little mean to me) or it's a two day sale. I'm pretty sure the "preview day" was someone's quick fix for the fact that the jingle says "One Day!" over an over, but after the nineteenth viewing I really was ready to kill someone. And I'm pretty sure that's not what they had in mind.
