Eh. There are a lot of ads. A lot of it is nonsense.

But: there are some diamonds in the rough. Do I really need another novelty tank top? No. Would I rather have an ad for a novelty tank top versus going back to the TV days and getting an ad for vitamins for senior citizens? No—give me my targeted ads, versus ads for drugs for old people.


I found a t-shirt brand that actually has well fitting, nicely colored, comfortable shirts. They shrink in my dryer so I have to hang-dry, but I have been buying some things I find on there.


If you can't beat them, join them? I for one, welcome our benevolent advertising overloards. /s
