I can see how you were confused. Both require a specific skill set, tools, and .......

taste?
For a split second I thought I read Blue Waffle. Whew.
 
The guy that didn't get the joke and instead poked out his bottom lip and folded his arms in protest talks about how something went over someone else's head. That's rich! We completely get that you missed it the first time but thanks for confirming that you still haven't seen the ball since kickoff with this latest comment. (y)
It's ok, I'm rooting for you. But feel free to point out exactly which joke I didn't get so you don't feel so disenfranchised. Think of it as a nice warm electronic hug for yourself. #selfcare
Ok, here's a hint, look at the 4-5 comments before my original one. Mine had everything to do with them. Nothing to do with the OP. But you see a joke there so now I'm interested. Which joke didn't I get?
 
I don’t know what I expected from this thread…. but this was not it….

First of all… that’s an entertaining video. Second of all… the influencer haters/adamanat-non-inflenced people are entertainment all their own. In shocking news…. did you know…. sales people….. make commissions?!? The earth is ending. lol Heck one way to look at it, is now the little man can now get in on the deal, after all US government officials have been selling influence for decades :)
 
And? You have a problem with Capitalism? I'm assuming you'd do it for free if your job consisted of talking about a vendor's products? I'll bet if your favorite bow manufacturer called you up and gave you a free bow with the understanding you'd have to mention their products in every post here on AT, you'd drop their name in every post, wouldn't you?

.
Their jobs as enfluencers/prostitutes=your word, depends on them talking about a vendors products in a good light , even if the product is crap.
I couldn't do that. That is like the used car salesman selling some poor person a vehicle they just dumped some 50 weight oil in it, so the motor would not smoke on start up.
the example I gave above, the guy does not even like that brand fillet knife as he uses a B&D electric knife to fillet the fish for his clients. But in order for him to make money he promotes it.

And No I would not, I have been asked on here and on another site to promote products and I refused.
one of the several times on here, a person asked about something, I mentioned I use XVC brand, well XVC contacted me via PM to pimp their product. They were going to send me several of their items and I could get discounts of some of their other products they sell.

This last week on a truck sight, some one asked about LED bulbs, I mentioned I have been using this brand for 7 years now, well that brand contacted me via PM...

I wonder about the people on here that keeps saying certain brands if they are being paid to say that all the time.

Well, the cat is out of the bag. Everyone now knows why I always mention Martha Stewart cookware and Bob Evans. Thanks....

And it's influencers, not enfluencers. Get my name right and let it roll off the tongue. Just like my non stick Martha Stewart frying pan let's my Bob Evans sausage patties fall out of the skillet.
 
What? They're a part of our culture at this point, and I don't think they're adding to anything other than opinions, consumerism, and parroting manufacturers' talking points. So, I don't watch them, yet every fifth post in this community seems to have been influenced by them.
Oh, and feel free not to interact with my post; no one is forcing you if you feel offended, triggered, or like you're going to have a knee-jerk reaction to anything I've written. I wouldn't want to be a bad influence on your daily actions.
