According to the passage "hype" writen by Kalle Lasn states that in these days we live surrounded by ads which are "toxic of the mental pollutants". Nowadays advertisements are everywhere; therefore it is something that we have to learn how to lived with it. What's more, based on studies there are thousands and even billions of advertisements that floods our brains everyday, not only adults but also kids are watching these advertisements unconsciously and they are the main target of those ads. I agree with the author that advertisements are prevalent and toxic for our brains. When the author talks about tv commercial advertisements is something that we are living in these times and there is no place where to hide to avoid them. Our society is suffering the impact of the ads because kids are being targeted by these ads. For instance, my brother was watching this t.v show in cartoon network and there were many ads about this candy called sour patch that as soon as it finished he started begging for that candy.

The essay was good. The author did mention the main idea in his page. His spelling to me seen correctly as well. The author does give one example as well. The essay did not reach 400 words, it is probably around 200-250 words. Besides that, the essay seen good and it grabs at least my attention to read some more.
