I ain’t ‘fraid of no liquidation sale

Dear Local Used Car Dealer,
It is neither cool nor ironic to use Ray Parker Jr.’s Ghostbusters as background music in your current “liquidation sale” radio spot when: 1.) Halloween is five months away, and 2.) the advertisement itself makes no reference whatsoever to ghosts, busting, or anything even vaguely spooky. It is merely confusing.
In the future, I hope that you will consider looking beyond low licensing fees to choose a more appropriate song to represent your business and its sales promotions to the general public. Thanks for your time, and best wishes.
Sincerely,
Jess

And what song would that be?
Gee, er, well…how about “Celebration” by Kool and the Gang? Only it could be a reference to the dealer’s liquidation “salebration.”
