(v.) A short, yet effort saving action that allows a view of a YouTube video from beginning to end uninterupted by YouTube pop-up ads.
The action involves pausing the video as it loads, then clicking and dragging the navigtional-tool on the video timeline past the ad (making the advertisement pop up) and then back to the beginning of the video. At this point, the viewer simply closes the ad and is now able to watch the video from the start without having to close the ad during the clip.

Davo was really baked and wanted to watch an hour long video of cats on YouTube. Just after he had pressed play and gotten comfy (the mouse far out of reach), YouTube's pop-up ad appeared, causing Davo to blaspheme as he forgot to ad scrub.
