From December 1992: An unfinished sentence I wrote and some responses it received:
One humorous but disturbing example of overcommercialization is...
...my cousin dressing up as the lead singer from Menudo, taken from the Saturday morning cartoon. She's three. (Karen B.)
...the way they bring out the rabid hamsters around Halloween now instead of after Thanksgiving. (Eric S.)
...the fact that as the late night move progresses, the ratio of Ginsu knife commercials to the actual movie time increases exponentially. (Matthew F.)
