For real though, we must have reached Peak Ad at some point, or at least we're deep into the realm of diminishing returns. This can't go on forever, right? I mean there's a finite number of things that need to be advertised and a finite number of people with a finite amount of time and patience to look at ads. How long until it all collapses?

The market can remain irrational for longer than you and I can remain ~~solvent~~ sane.

@200fifty @bitofhope

As long as companies can post chum ads that look like news articles but are completely false or imply nasty false things about a celebrity, there will be ads.

I’m always astounded by how shit internet ads are. Stuff that wouldn’t have passed muster in the Weekly World News.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
