Edvertisement

An Edvertisement is an advertisement that is intended to educate the individual about the product and or service. While it is intended to help in the purchase process of a product or service, it's first function is to educate on a topic relating to that product or service, with the second function being to prompt the person to act on the material and make a purchase decision.
The edvertisement for the paint roller will teach the individual that the best practice for applying a coat of paint is to state the roller. The fact that our roller allows for 25% more paint to be drawn into the fiber is the selling point.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
