Atlanta House Branded to Promote ‘The Simple Life’ On E

IMG_2952.jpg

Well, it’s happened. A couple years ago, we said the proliferation of advertising would, one day, reach the point where people’s house would be painted with a brand’s logo as part of an ad campaign or promotion. To promote the Simple Life on E, an Atlanta house was decorated with the E and The Simple Life logos and the shrubs in front have been trimmed (likely pre-shaped fake bushes) to spell “Sundays”. Oh sure, the whole house is just one big purchased promotion and, likely, it’s not the first but it’s the first we’ve seen. It’s actually done quite well. Particularly nice job on the “broken” window. We wonder what the neighbors think though. A second photo can be seen here.

Nobody tells you that pain doesn’t just change what you feel. It changes what you notice. After real loss, you start seeing grief in strangers’ faces at the grocery store, hearing exhaustion in your friend’s laugh, catching the micro-hesitation before someone says ‘I’m fine.’ Pain gave you a fluency you never asked for and can never unlearn
