Ads don't bother me. They are just noise that I haven't paid attention to in decades and are almost never a factor in anything I purchase.
There was an ad in the 80s that proudly proclaimed "up to 50% off.....AND MORE!" It just boggles the mind.
It's insulting. But then, so was celebrating "The New Millennia" on 1/1/2000. I watched as country after country succumbed to the stupidity, until it finally reached Trafalgar Square. Et tu, Motherland? *sigh*
