• Grunge was so self-consciously lowbrow and nonaspirational that it seemed, at first, impervious to the hype and glamour normally applied swiftly to any emerging trend.

• He aquí una idea: come como un adulto.
  
  Deja la comida rápida, los cereales para niños, los dulces y los alimentos reconfortantes, y reduce el picoteo. Y no actúes como si no lo supieras: come más verduras y frutas.
  
  ¿De verdad, tan difícil es? Deja de quejarte. Déjate de excusas. Actúa como un adulto y deja de comer como un anuncio de televisión. Madura.

• You can't just repurpose old material created for one platform, throw it up on another one, and then be surprised when everyone yawns in your face. No one would ever think it was a good idea to use a print ad for a television commercial, or confuse a banner ad for a radio spot. Like their traditional media platform cousins, every social media platform has its own language.

• But just now, he'd gotten on his knees and proposed marriage, like in a television commercial for a diamond ring. Except of course they had the roll of duct tape instead, which, when you came to think about it, was a far more practical item. Such a bad mistake it would be, to embark on marriage and adult life without a nice supply of duct tape.

• Every generation wants to be the last. Every generation hates the next trend in music they can't understand. We hate to give up those reins of our culture. To find our own music playing in elevators. The ballad for our revolution, turned into background music for a television commercial. To find our generation's clothes and hair suddenly retro.
