It all begins with the ticking of some invisible time bomb.


It can be fixed.


The clock ticks down while your focus shifts to every other disaster.

You see your kids are no longer who they were.

Pudgy faces and curious smiles replaced with deadpan, glowing, stares.

Day to day turns from rat race, to gulag, to indentured servitude.

Those we love shift and sensuous touch fades to a ghostly memory.


BUT WAIT!


FIRE UP THOSE SCREENS!

TURN THE VOLUME UP!


It can be fixed.

Just turn away from the torrent and look at the todays sponsor.

Check out the new catch phrases that hold the hints to repair your life.

Go, buy those facemarks, and upgrade those gadgets, flash sale's just starting.


It can be fixed.

If you ignore it, and just make it worse.

It can be fixed, just ignore it, buy, and watch, and forget.


It can be fixed.


Boom.
