I'm not exactly the target audience-- did you watch it through to the end?

It was so over the top and insane that it didn't knock me into raving self-hatred, but I did feel some habitually tight muscles getting tighter.

I got a possibly salable button slogan from it.

I think a relatively small proportion of people are susceptible to pep talks, but I'm curious about whether I'm right.
