Kourtney Kardashian.
Oh right, so presumably she’s one of them. My problem here is that I have absolutely zero interest in
phenomena like the Kardashians apart from the cultural curiosity of their
seemingly phenomenal status. (And I suppose I must admit a mild degree of
respect for the fact that their parents were apparently attracted to
alliteration.)
The poster went on:
Look and Feel Better
(presumably by using these products, whatever they were.) That’s OK; that’s just
typical marketing gobbledegook. But the best was reserved for the bottom line:
Ms KK’s signature, no less. It said:
Global Brand Ambassador.
Wowee! That’s an impressively grandiose title for a woman
who’s being paid a great deal of money just for allowing her pretty average-looking
face to be plastered across a pile of posters, isn’t it?

But the day was saved when the Tesco cashier overcharged me
for a bottle of beer (isn’t it good when words rhyme by accident?) When I went
to the customer service desk to claim the 36p difference, I came away with a
substantial profit. Now that’s what I
call a matter of significance.
