Fun and Interesting ads are actually the worst ones, because they get you to associate pleasant feelings with their product/service/brand, which dilutes your ability to make rational, objective choices about them. That’s one of the ways that they are manipulating you.
It blows my mind that some people on my team were excited to watch the commercials during the Super Bowl.
I live my life in a way that minimizes the advertising I’m exposed to, and some people are just mainlining that garbage.
Yah but the ads during the Super Bowl are usually interesting and fun and I don’t mind them.
Which begs the question, why aren’t all ads fun and interesting? I’ve seen some YT channels make them this way and it makes them far more palletable.
