yes, I despise ads. It's gotten to the point where if I'm forced to endure an ad before a youtube video, I'll mute it and avert my eyes. It feels like a psychological assault out of nowhere. it's worse at gas station pumps, where I can't always mute it
Oh right? I never watch or listen to them. Given no other option I'll even cover my ears and hum. Ads breAk the soul, and I literally feel healthier not being subjected to them.
Wait your gas station pumps have ads!? Where do you live?
United States. there are Ads everywhere. for the wildest shit, too. Ads for medications and prescription drugs are the worst of them, shouldn't even be allowed... but, ya know.... lobbyist money (A.K.A. bribes)
