I'd like to offer my appreciation to all of my fans in India, who not only eat delicious food but also watch my videos. The video, "Tips: How to be sexy" was written after I researched "Consumer Culture". I came across the research of Russell Belk, who noticed that in nearly every magazine article, there are messages which advise people of how to live their lives, such as, "How to be creative", "What's fashionable in the upcoming season", "How to lose weight", "How to turn yourself into a Barbie Doll", which all offer solutions via consumer consumption. I am curious to know the average amount of advertisements an American sees daily. This video is mocking advertising and marketing schemes which advise women to make themselves more appealing to men, as if they do not know how to do so already.

Time Wasters
Reading my horoscope and google'ing myself are useless endeavors but sadly are weaknesses of mine.
