Later in the commercial Derek Jeter comes in and starts fucking around with his stock portfolio. I understand that it's a commercial. But suspension of disbelief is one thing. Utter stupidity is quite another. Of course, Fleet is betting on the fact that there are countless numbers of idiots out there who will sign up for online banking just because they think their favorite shortstop does it.
Sad thing is, the odds are probably in their favor.
I've said it before, I'll say it again. Fuck Douglas Coupland, a marginally skilled author with little imagination who's made a career out of turning 20-something stereotypes into novels. My opinion hasn't changed. Coupland did later try to talk down the Gen X moniker, however no one could stop him from naming a subsequent book Girlfriend in a Coma . If more death penalty supporters were as honest as him perhaps people would take them more seriously.
