"watching youtube ads helps us grow as a channel"

 

[John Price]

Newspaper: "We depend on you looking at ads to pay our staff."

"I won't work for free. I'll only work by hiding information behind a paywall"

Yes, because people who work for ESPN, CBS, SB Nation et all all post content without a paywall.

And my favorite...the unsavory sites - "We need you to disable your adblocker. Watching ads supports you watching these videos."

Sure. The second I turn that ad blocker off and "support" you who knows how much spyware I'm subjecting myself to.

Pass.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

I will never disable my adblocker except in extreme circumstances, and if a site changes to bypass the adblockers I don't visit it anymore.

 

[John Price]

I mean for some options like my TV, tablet and phone I don't have the choice to disable ads.
I could pay 15$ a month for youtube premium but it's dumb. Apparently you can also alter the apk to stop ads but that's way above my paygrade.

Anyway, be watching on TV my daily gambling vids and every f***ing 3 minutes. ADS ADS ADS. And some of them are like 2 minutes too. They show you 2 ads, and sometimes it's 15 seconds each, which I don't have a problem with as long as it's not political (those get instant-blocked). But some of these ads are like 2 to 3 minutes long. Like who is watching that.

For some reason my tablet only shows them in the beginning of each video, meanwhile if I watch on TV, ads again every 3 minutes. it's insanity how much they're trying to push ads down our throats. use a banner ad like twitch occasionally does.

Seminole Casinos (including Guitar Hotel) will introduce live sports betting effective Dec 7.

Glad you finally figured out where Mar A Lago is.

Make sure you do not leave the house until 4PM today.

Youtube streamer needs to mute the music or they'll get a copyright strike

You're out in public music plays all the f***ing time. do you really want royalties off that lmao

I was driving on a freeway in Edmonton. A van changed lines almost hitting me. I was going faster so I ended up beside the lady. She mouthed "I'm sorry." I smiled and waved. #choosekindness

oui .. sorry to hear that brother.

Constantly fume at other people on the highway who won't signal when changing lanes, won't f***ing let me in when I'm trying to change lanes, etc

"IT'S THEIR RIGHT OF WAY IDIOT"

Yes, and if you don't f***ing slow down to let me pass I'll run off the road. That has happened literally a few times, when I get on an onramp trying to merge into the highway and the assholes won't f***ing let me in. I'm trying to get into the highway. Literally get driven off the road onto the shoulder and have to slam the left turn signal until someone wants to f***ing slow the f*** down and let me merge

 

[John Price]

here past 3 pm the traffic up on 28 gets really really bad for some reason, there's a huge bottleneck so when I drive that I have to change lanes like 4 times just to get to the left most lane so I can get to the ramp off

i could go earlier but I'm blocked from doing so

btw is the trash man coming today. had to throw out like 8 onions because they turned green literally. I can't cook with them, I can't eat them I can't sautee them. f***ing POS. We live in 2023 man how have we not genetically engineered onions that don't f***ing expire or turn afoul after 4 days

"EAT THEM THEN"

I DO EAT THEM

I'M NOT GOING TO BUY LIKE 3 ONIONS AND PUT TH EM IN A BAG AND WEIGH THEM

I BUY LIKE BAGS OF LIKE 10 OF THEM

HOW DO THEY NOT LAST LONGER THAN A WEEK

how do you even use 10 onions in a week. and no i'm not shopping at costco.

I'd wager you're the shitty driver in 10 out of 10 of these scenarios

 

[John Price]

I always buy my produce bagged because if you pick them fresh from the produce bin 1) you don't even know what's ripe, what's not ripe 2) you have to measure them literally to know how much they cost because they charge by the pound 3) you can't check them out easily on the self checkout. have to enter the barcode. wow, an onion picked from the farm gasp...doesn't have a f***ing barcode.

"Why don't you just use the cashier"

that's why I have to use the cashier for all fresh produce and I don't want to most of the time. I just want to scan my shit, pay and go

not be stuck at the machine f***ing entering in codes like a nerd. I don't know the UPC code for onions.

There's so much ridiculous entitlement here it hurts my soul

Just pretend self-checkout is a slot machine and I'm sure you wouldn't mind spending 5 hours at it holding everyone else up.
