Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend.
A good slogan was created in 1947 that has stuck around for decades. After many unsuccessful attempts to produce a great slogan for De Beers, Frances Gerety, a copywriter at an advertising agency, before heading home scrawled ‘A diamond is forever’ on the bottom of a picture of two honeymooning lovers. It had humble beginnings, but the campaign became the most recognized slogan of the 20th century, and ninety percent of Americans know it. ‘A Diamond is forever’ became the official slogan of De Beers.

Support your Screenwriters
Every movie you've ever seen has someone behind the scenes, the person that made the movie possible. Some of them you've heard of like David Crane, the writer and a producer of the show "Friends" which started in 1994. We also have Jennifer Michelle, the writer of Frozen and its sequel, the first movie earning her an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. Yet, even with these two writers, typically their names aren't in big bold letters in the credits like the cast, supporting cast, and producers. In some cases, this is wrong, I know, especially with animated films. Yes, the screenwriter is in the credits, but I feel they should be one of the first few names on it, even if most people don't stay until the end. For screenwriters, I feel like it would make them happier to be up higher, though this is also personal opinion, however they deserve it, much like the rest who made it happen.

Why break the mould when you can smash it?
I’m going to ask you, if I may, to cast your minds back. If you’re a Gen Z reader then I’m going to ask you to cast your minds way back to the Biblical times. 2007. Take a deep breath. Picture it. The prestigious magazine Vanity Fair has just shocked the world with an article by the late polemicist Christopher Hitchens. Now, I greatly admire Mr Hitchens’ wide body of work but this, it must be said, was not his finest hour. The article, which he no doubt thought was a very thorough and meticulous example of journalism, was entitled “Why Women Aren’t Funny.”

It is one of many "razors" that exist in philosophical discussion, the most well known of which is probably Occam's razor, though there are many others.
