When the so-called “pay-per-call” phone numbers found traction in the late 1980’s I started promoting a fictitious service named ‘1-900-JUSTIFY’ as an effective means of making a point.
The idea was that callers could pay to hear someone tell them, in a soothing voice, whatever they wanted to hear. My tagline was ‘When you need to feel better about a decision you’ve already made, dial 1-900-JUSTIFY.’
This never failed to garner a snicker, if not an uncomfortable laugh, wherever it was shared and eventually grew a tiny subculture worldwide, as most people could easily relate to the irony of the concept.
With the advent of LTG (not to mention the negative reception of 900 numbers) I concede that my idea is now totally defunct, at least when it comes to justifying the purchase of a Guild.
Someone seeking to feel better about buying their Guild (or needing to know the particulars of how to hide it from or spring it on the spouse) need only visit letstalkguild.com for a wealth of justification that is entirely FREE!
These people (me included) are incorrigible! Visitor beware!
