Right. I knew that. I was just so pleased to be the chosen mirror onto which you could refract your momentary desire I couldn't help but respond with the most frothingly materialist-jargon porn to raise the level of your satisfaction to the point that you would surely forget fans even existed.
(Obviously I had exhasted my own self-irony and had only my stock of self-importance to draw on for reply--but I also think I was replying to another post near the bottom, which is obviously lost in the variety of threads on that subject of ideology and/or complex language used to discuss it as a concept.)

I'll admit I haven't the faintest idea what the reference meant. I know Jack Benny's a comedian, but if it was a joke, I didn't get it. I'm sure it was funny though.
