I swear, I’ve seen a bunch of ads on YouTube recently that ended up just being random meme videos someone made in their bedroom and then paid to have play as an ad. There’s no product or service ever mentioned, not even a link to the advertiser’s channel on YT or TikTok. Just a funny skit.
I think I would watch YouTube ads if they were cathode ray dude/lgr style deep dives into whatever the fuck it is. Give me an hour of video delving into all the tech that goes into Bluetooth earbuds and I’ll watch your raycon ad.
I would watch broadcast TV again if all the commercials were just some dude popping up to say he saw a really cool bird today or something like that.

I once saw a nonsensical Gmod video played as an ad. (It’s a bit loud.)
