It's the fact that the number of choices just keeps expanding as well, adding to each product some unique but completely redundant selling point... new shampoos to fix 'new' problems, tissues with air pumped into them (??), frozen pre-cooked baked potatoes, creams to alleviate the 'seven signs of aging', scented toilet paper with aloe vera... sometimes I have a slight out-of-body experience and I'm looking down on myself watching such advertisements and feel like I've stepped into a chapter of Brave New World or 1984.
