The reason it burns so much is it inhibits tear production. Hence, no tears. They didnt say no pain.

You had to sign up for the channel. Yeah, descramble. And if you didn't have the channel it'd look like this. Usually darker tho.

Also to prevent dead air, which is the worst thing you can do. I was told dead air damaged old radio equipment but I can't find any proof.

Former broadcast engineer. Dead air does not damage equipment.

Absolute BS. What it MIGHT do is trigger the emergency tapes in the studio / EBS at the transmitter if it goes on more than 30s or so...
MarkPenrice
Followup in case anyone ever sees it: Radio 4 in the UK regularly has a good 5+ secs of silence. R3 can hit 10~15 before emrg tapes kick in.
Otterhendrix
I went to broadcasting school for a week and they had posters everywhere saying "DEAD AIR = DEAD DJS". That's a capital sin in radio.
DonnaNobleInTheLibrary
I doubt that it damages equipment. You just don't want your listeners sit in silence and possibly switch to another station.
IllegalDuckling
It sure damages the DJ's equipment if he can't afford to maintain it.
magikarpBitch
Probably just something new djs were told
oneofthosemeddlingkids
The only thing dead air does is making the compressor/limiter try to amplify the background noise. I've had a radio show for four years.

Always used what we called a bed: background music to accompany the talking, making it seem that the music never stops. It works great.

You can just say "white people." Dads wanting to protect their daughters from boys is not just a white thing, i.e. my dad was black.

No my point being, us white Europeans generally don't have this. All strongly patriarchical identifying do. Eu is more on the left generally

Okay, but that still leaves the issue of you identifying a father's concern for a daughter as "patriarchical possessiveness"

My theory is that the original written label meant no hair breaking but even the commercials said "TEARS" as in crying. Maybe it means both.

Except the one that OP posted said no more tears for eyes. Its in the advertisement Tear free for Eyes.

It's no more tears as in tearing or ripping. It's boasting about the conditioner. The droplet icon is, I concede, misleading.

Yeah no. In the comercial they specifically say tears as in crying. Kids dont give a fuck about split ends.

It was supposed to stop crying caused by a brush getting caught in your hair. The shampoo itself was made of ghost peppers and battery acid
Lilendae
The add shows a kid with suds on his eyes, wiping away suds, opening eyes,and voiceover with NO TEARS. You can't get a more explicit meaning
Sweetcandykitten
You do realize that it says tears like no rips. It wasn't meant to me no crying it was meant to protect your hair from breaking.

It's called 'no tears' because it contains a detangler, so they don't cry when you brush their hair afterward...

That's what I always though too. But idk now. It's sort of redundant to say "no tears. no tangles." if they meant tears during combing.
