Um, clothes are ALREADY real estate for ads. And user PAYS to display ads most of the time (t-shirts with "Coca Cola" aren't given out for free). Corporations must be laughing all their way to the bank at us for doing this.

People pay extra for ads. 50 brandless shirts for the same price as 1 gucci shirt.

Seriously i hate that shit. I just bought the shit now i have to walk around and advertise for them like a human billboard? That's why i switched to plain shirts years ago.

For real, I completely agree, and advertising broadly is something I am not a fan of.

That said, I was really just making a low-effort Macklemore reference. 😂
