There is a commercial for a local business school. The end of the commercial tells you to call in order to "get on the way to a new career - END A BETTER LIFE." I questioned why the school would try to encourage you to call them to "end a better life?" A friend told me they were trying to say "and a better life," but that CLEARLY is the opposite of what the man is saying!!! How could this commercial have approval to be aired with this horrible message?

"and a better life" probably refers to some kind of heaven-like place, in which case it's a lie which is trying to cheat you out of your new career.

"end a better life" makes much more sense, because it means that there are less people left for you to kill before you can climb over the pile of bodies into the career you want.

Yes, the way it was aired makes most sense. Don't let your firend tell you otherwise. He'll never get the better career with that attitude.

Oh, by the way, for anyone with no sense of humour; this is irony.

Don't worry - market opinion will say "what on earth do they mean" or "what a horrible advert" either way they have wasted their money.
