Help Us Crap on Lame Social Media Campaigns

The famed SUXORZ panel is happening Feb. 3 in New York as part of Social Media Week. It’s been a hit at SXSW two years running and now it’s making a stop in the middle of advertising’s mecca. Well, OK, what used to be advertising’s mecca but still.

Join Ian Schafer, Steve Hall, BL Ochman, Caroline McCarthy and moderator Henry Copeland as they review and skewer your nominees for the worst social media campaigns of ’09. As always, the audience will have the final say, voting for the SUXORZ losers.

There’s an open bar to lubricate our deliberations.

There are a few half-off tickets available to longtime Facebook SUXORZ members, so pogo over to https://suxorz10.eventbrite.com/ and enter offer code SUX55 … and if you can’t make it, be sure to submit your nominees to the SUXORZ Facebook wall.

The real reason your aging father who never expressed emotion in sixty years of marriage openly weeps when the family dog dies isn’t sentimentality. The dog was the one relationship where he was allowed to be soft without it being questioned, and the grief isn’t just about the animal, it’s about losing the only door he ever found for the feelings he was raised to lock away

My daughter described her childhood to a friend last week and I overheard it from the next room—and the mother she described wasn’t cruel or cold, she was just less present than I remember being, less patient than I thought I was, and less fun than I tried to be—and the distance between the mother I performed and the mother she received is a gap I can hear but never close because her version is the only one that counts

Psychology says the people who check on everyone but are never checked on aren’t stronger than everyone else. They just learned very early that their pain made other people uncomfortable, so they stopped presenting it.

Psychologists explain that married people who feel lonely rarely lack companionship. They lack witness. Someone is in the house, someone is at the table, but no one is tracking the interior life happening behind their eyes, and that specific absence registers as invisibility, not solitude
