Oh personally I'm ok, merely insulted (by ads)!
I'm thinking ... The whole internet tech industry would be so much better to live with.
I know it's silly, they'd have found another mechanism to fuck us over with, rapacious greed being what it is and all.
Think of all the site bloat all caused by advertising.
What I find so jarring about it is the endless changing of context and ground. We're watching a TV show and suddenly we're talking about toothpaste or whatever -- huh? what crazy person just entered the room and starting blabbing nonsense? That's what advertising has always been to me, a crazy person talking crazy about stuff no one wants to hear. And so many people don't seem to notice, think it's normal. It's so jarring to me.
