  • How did Gilette know it was my birthday?

    They gave me a free razor and shaving gel... but how did they know it was my birthday? and how did they know I was living with my grandmother?

      Gillette is spying on you right now.

      Careful, I hear they are looking for test subjects for their new line of pubic shaving gels.

        but I only started living with my grandmother three weeks ago... how would they possibly know I was here?

            Why do you assume they gave it to you because of your birthday? They're always having promotional giveaways.

              I don't mind if they are spying on me. They can send me whatever... I'll use it.

                See, Alfred, I'm a shareholder. And my Gillette stock ain't doing so well, you know? So, to help the Company out a little bit, I troll a bit for email addresses, personal info and the like. Well, a month ago I received a request for any info I can dig up on white gangsta posers from Philly, and naturally, I thought of you.

                    Yeah, with a simple street address, I used to have one data base that I could access, that would list all sorts of info. Every Household member with age/dob, HH salary, make/model/year/for every vehicle. And other demographic info. Sometimes the secretaries would have be look up their neighbors to see if they were dating material.

                      nah... the package was all like, "Happy 18th Birthday" so it was not a random promotion

                      White gangster posers? what the hell that got to do with me?

                      That's something... a little bit big brother like...

                        And that's just one of the many databases. If you had insurance with us, we had even more information. Yes, very big brother. But there were very strict limits on how we could use it commerically, but for DBAs like myself, there were no limits.
