    Yup. If I see an ad for a thing, it means they spent more money trying to trick me into buying the thing than just making the thing better in the first place. An ad for a thing means the thing is shit!

      Like there are some adds where, it’s like, “oh that looks slick.”

      I’ve never seen such an add on Youtube. usually it’s scams. like ‘Hey buy my magic pill and get ripped’. Or the generic car ads.

        Car ads are also scams.

        Howcome nobody in a car commercial is never in any traffic?
