Maybe you're thinking of the whole monkey sphere thing? People will generally empathize with the few hundred faces they know, but outside of that it becomes much more difficult. It's why a million deaths is a statistic, yet a single death is a tragedy.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Yeah, you need to be more specific. Annoying/stupid describes pretty much any modern commercial.

That commercial is indeed horrible. I find the commercials for browser game to be even more annoying. Or the ones where mother are playing games on a DS with way too much enthusiasm.
