Probably yeah... but I'm not sure I understood the question right from the start I'm afraid.i mean i started it out with the specific intention of one specific thing only for certain man in here to take it down their own self indulgent roads rather than just address the question
but hey succeeded admirably/noble failure @IdleRich samething at the end of the day right?
i was just asking have you ever come away a piece of art that has a reputation of being polarizing feeling ambivalent about itProbably yeah... but I'm not sure I understood the question right from the start I'm afraid.
i think i understand what you're getting at in terms of marketing and how its embedded itself in peoples brains but at the same time i feel like i'm not, either way this came of condescendingThe classic example of things aspiring to be polarising is Marmite.
I have a feeling you are not from UK @WebEschatology so I will explain this, apologies if you are and this is obvious, but there is a spread called Marmite which, years ago, decided to base its branding and marketing around the fact that some people - they claim - love it, while others hate it. I remember them introducing this as their tagline aaaaaages ago, like 25 years back, and at the time it seemed a really strange idea - I suppose cos marketing was generally less sophisticated at the time and any message other than "here is our thing, it is better than all other things" was unusual.
Someone seems to think it works for them cos they have stuck with it for decades, to the extent that the product itself has become a shorthand for polarising... people do actually describe things as "marmite" meaning that they split opinion, and presumably Marmite believe that people using their name in random conversations ends up selling more yeast spread.
i'm gonna need to take some time off here for a while
