i am completely oversensitive to advertisement
« on: October 14, 2010, 02:51:22 PM »
especially, cus im sensitive to sound, and advertisement is
1. intrusive and lame, "Hey YOU yes YOU you need this worthless crap!" no i dont "GIVE US YOUR MONEY!!!" im on welfare "GIVE US YOUR MONEY WE NEED IT MORE"

2. its so loud. so very very loud. the "master volume" of a reel of advertisement is much much louder than normal tv.

what the fucking fuck is the psychology behind that!?
the louder you scream, the more convincing you are!?
i am insulted to the core...

i used to ignore, then tolerate, but now i cant... advertisement comes on, i have to mute it...

thats all
carry on :)

The kind of advertisements that bother me the most are the talking ones that are triggered on some websites if your mouse passes over them.
They're loud and intrusive and startling and I can't always find the ad in time to shut off the sound, so I end up listening to the whole speech.   :hair:

i meant advertisement on TV tho, those are the ones w the volume

on the internet they are much less intrusive, you can click them away, or ignore them much more easily. but on tv, the whole show STOPS

the show goes away! :D

imagine if a website did that?
your browsing some page, suddenly it just vanishes

"DRINK PEPSI!!!! NO SERIOUSLY DRINK IT NOW!!!! GIVE US MONEY!!!!!"

its just... terribly unpolite :S

its a habit that has become normal, but that should be banned

its all about phsycology. if you havent noticed what makes a movie scary isnt the picture, it the music.
people who are trying to sell you stuff know this, so they do the same trick

I hate adds that have the overwhelming volume also.  The ones that bother he even more are the ones on the radio with the car horns or sires they freak me out when I am driving

i know, i know..
and me being aspie makes me more concious about this, and all pissed off

while for most people, it works wonders.
instead of being furious, they even have award shows, w "the best advertisement"

to me its like an award show for "the best nazi" or something

but people swallow that shit whole :b

Commercials are the reason why I stopped watching TV in the first place. And yes, they are fucking loud and annoying. But hey, still too many people in the world are too stupid to realize that the personal computer has rendered the television completely outdated years ago. Why pay the extra 50+ dollars every month?

i dont  :zoinks:

somehow, ive always lived in flats, where cable tv comes complementary

and ive gotten accustomed.. lets call it accustomed, to having a low buzz on in the background. especially at night, i cant even sleep if its all quiet :I a terrible habit, cus i loathe nearly everything they show. ill often watch shows out of pure masochism, but advertisement has finally gotten to me :I
