Advertisement

Advertisement is maybe the most hated thing on the internet.
Some of them are for showing products, services, clickbait, viruses, etc.

Try an adblocker if you don't want to see any advertisement.

advertising science

The kind of science where facts are invented in order to support claims that promote product sales.

Advertising Science studies show that when a middle aged man even looks at a testosterone supplement, their youth and sexual vigor returns instantly.

housing advertisings

Unlike the advertisings for many other products, housing advertisings are infamous for a) announcing impending price increase the next Monday, b) mentioning distance by travelling time (not akcual distance)

Imagine when Adrian mentions distance by travelling time like housing advertisings like in the sentence, 'I don't move out yet because I live at a multigenerational house located only 10 minutes drive from college.'

harassment by unwelcome advertisement

The legal name for the "moderate misdemeanor"-level crime of causing someone to be deluged with junk mail. Often performed by a disgruntled acquaintance of said individual as a way of getting even with the person for a perceived wrongdoing, and usually accomplished by "anonymously" contacting multitudes of businesses/organizations by phone/fax/email and/or responding to paper/internet junk-mail ads that you yourself receive by filling out the advertisers' response-forms in your victim's name, so that he will soon begin receiving tons of useless crap in his mailbox and/or e-mail account, receiving innumerable telemarketing/sales-calls, getting loads of junk-faxes (which of course will create the added headache/expense of his having to buy more paper and ink for his machine from its dutifully printing out all those useless ads!), having salespeople knocking at his door at all hours, etc.

Another sometimes-effective/successful use for harassment by unwelcome advertisement is to pressure the "targeted" person to do something you want (think, the hilariously-infamous "Taliban Hotline" animated cartoon); extra points if you also choose the types of advertisers --- and your method of sending the ad-responses --- strategically, so as to inflict maximum discomfort/humiliation on your victim, such as requesting info/offers from controversial and/or "spicy" organizations like the KKK or "adult" product/literature producers, and sending some of the requests via post card instead of discretely-concealing envelopes, so that every Tom, Dick, and Harry in the postal system is made shockingly aware that this person is apparently interested in these questionable/controversial services.
