Murphy's Law of YouTube Ads

"You can sit and watch a documentary-video on YouTube for extended periods with little or no advertisement-interruption, but then just as soon as you turn up da speaker-volume and go into da next room to take a dump, a whole bunch of ads will come along and you'll hafta endure listening mostly to them while yer poopin', rather than da video-commentary you'd wanted to hear.
Due in large part to da pesky "Murphy's Law of YouTube Ads", a few more-affluent citizens who live alone actually hire a full-or-part-time "Jeeves" for da sole purpose of being an ad-skip assistant.
