Ads

It's not an acronym. It's exactly what you think it means. "Give me your money! Meh! Don't you want this thing? Do you want these glasses? What about a nice juicy burger? Did you know you wanted it before some idiot sold your attention to me so that they could better convert your viewership into revenue? I paid him to show you this. And now you're seeing it. How does that make you feel? It shouldn't make you feel anything. Because you are irrelevant. If you were relevant wouldn't be watching this. You'd be doing something in front of a camera and I would be paying you to show the people who watch you do the thing you're doing the item I want them to see. But you're not. You're just you. So be you and do everyone else does and buy my thing. It's good. It's a good thing I promise. The guy you like wouldn't have sold you to me if it wasn't good."

Iam "Apparently, what I'm doing I derivative of a concept in the book "Cashvertisement". I don't remember the name of the author but apparently if you see ads you don't like you can email the owner of the company and tell them how to make the ads better and they give you money or something. I just heard about the book the other day. And just like that this post became an advertisement. I wonder if I predate the concept written about in the book. What effect have I had on the world? Oh God! What have I done!?"

Hym "I feel like we never use the word 'affect'..... We have to be using the word 'effect' wrong sometimes... There's no way we (in all of our writing) have never used the word 'affect'?"

Iam "Did I use it right just now?"

Hym "Google says you used it right...."

Iam "Should.... Should we start googling it every time we use either?"

Hym ".....That sounds like a lot of work..... Shit! This turned into an ad for Google! Quick! Stop referencing things! They haven't given us any money yet!"

Ad Skips

Defined as the way you can skip an ad. Example: In most mobile game ads there are small X buttons on the top right corner, this is how you skip the ad. Example 2: On youtube, ads will appear. Some ads are skippable but some aren't. Skippable ads can be skipped by waiting about 3-5 seconds then clicking the "Skip ad" button near the bottom right corner.

Person 1: "Hey check out this cool game I found
Person 2: "Its a cool game but there are way too many ads!"
Person 1: "Its a good thing that you can use the Ad Skips"
Person 2: "its still fucking annoying"

AD

"After Donald" as in after the Donald was booted out of the White House and all hope & peace feels plausible. Fun fact: AD era started right during Diwali - the Indian holiday where good "trumps" over evil.

Life is going to be much better in the AD era.
