Even getting ads about something I talked about is bad enough.
That's also the reason I regulary scream "hookers and cocaine" into my phone.
-
I scream hookers and cocaine into my phone too, but itโs usually because Iโm ordering hookers and cocaine.

That's good. Someone's gotta keep those CIA honeypot workers employed.

When the hands are preoccupied...

A man of culture

I just visualize someone stopping in the middle of a crowd and shouting into their phone, and then walking along as if yelling "hooked and cocaine" for no apparent reason is normal

I've been using ad nauseum, not only does it block ads, it clicks them all in the background so you send bunk data to the ad companies and cost them money for each ad clicked, it's fractions of pennies each time but it'll add up.
-
Really? Didn't know it also clicked them, excellent. It also keeps the ad machine spinning, because somebody is clicking on them - that must mean they work, no?

This is what I have lol
It's why the ads knowing anything is scary

you get ads for something you dreamt about
-
You get ads directly in your dreams...

How is "you get ads about something you talked about" ๐ ?
This should be "you get ads about something you talked about":
"You get ads about something you thought about":

So that's what it will be like when everyone has brain implants. No thank you.
-
That's when you get the ads in your dreams.

Imagine they can just adjust the price, if they think you're willing to pay more or wealthy

Excuse me, may I target you with some ads about a movie? I heard it's got some pretty good reviews!

Stop thinking

I'd have to stop thinking first.

Advertisement shit[post]s in your head. Avoid.

Iโve been cutting every piece of software that shows me ads out of my life. I basically just have Lemmy and streaming services now. Itโs pretty great, but now if Iโm somewhere and I see or hear an ad I get extremely annoyed.
The lemmy post about them feeling gross was relatable. Like everyone's so fake enjoying [product] and you're just watching asking "how does this convince anyone to buy [product]
Doesn't everyone feel this way about ads? I don't feel like the advert algorithms ever get a good lock on me. On the few occasions I've gotten adverts it has been for things like "Visit the UAE" or "Visit Dubai" and a lot of pregnancy and feminine hygiene related stuff.
I'm a gay man. Pretty sure I'd get stoned to death in Dubai/UAE, and pregnancy is just not on the menu for me.
This is me with those stupid "Dude relaaaaaaaxxxx" ads for Hello Fresh. I watch them, oddly mesmerized by how bad they are. Also some of the things they show are literally 3 ingredients (potatoes, cheese, pepper for smashed potatoes).
To their credit, they've stopped claiming they're cheaper than groceries
i love sports so unfortunately it's being injected into my eyeballs every game everywhere
Yeah, I've noticed it's gotten really bad. I'm not a sports fan myself, but I've tried watching NFL with my brother, and it's borderline unwatchable due to the sheer amount of ads.
FTFY
Bruh itโs seriously starting to look like thatโs how Iโm gonna do shit from now on. Streaming services are getting enshittified like crazy.
