Is Youtube's approach to get people to pay for no ads...

[Deleted]

... to assault them with the words, "BIG NEWS!" blasting at them every single time you pop open a video? Swear that annoying ad for whatever brand of cellphone that is has been assaulting me nonstop for days on end every time I start up a video no matter what it is.

They're not going to break me on this, because I'm not wasting money on something that small, but maaaan those words just make me shudder at this point. Doesn't help I'm used to Youtube having more ad variety than this. This seems more like something I would've seen on Blip.

Cant be worse than

"Here in my Garage... with my Lamborghini..."

I haven't had either of those ads, though I don't mind ads. Only time it bothers me is when it's unskippable and longer than like 30 seconds. Anything longer than that should probably have a skip at 5.

Every ad that appears on a video I'm watching is for Google.

Oh, they didn't abandon YouPorn Blue or whatever the hell they were calling it? Because it used to lurk on my YT app, just under the menu to see your History, but then it disappeared.

A while back, I got nothing but ads for Boom Beach for two days.

[A Platypus Rave]

I started randomly getting Spanish Miller Lite ads.

For seemingly no apparent reason

I only get ads in Spanish or Japanese

Shotasoco ads here

I'm not paying them a dime. The worse the ads and stuff get, the more I just try to find the videos I want to see elsewhere.

I don't appreciate Ray Winston threatening me not to push the skip button.

It only makes pushing the skip button more satisfying.

Don't f***ing tell me not to push the Skip button when I just want to get to the video I actually clicked to watch!

I imagine a few other Brits have had this one before.

Has YouTube Red even started yet?

I concur that the phrase "BIG NEWS!" annoys me, especially when it's yelled in a commercial.

[Kash Flagg]

Please don't mention programs used to get around ads on this forum. Thanks.

I get Spanish here and there. Not that often.

Yeah, Ray Winstone can f*** off. I don't even gamble, which makes it even more aggravating.

The main ad I get lately is one for Heinz soup. Probably because I watch a lot of cooking channels, I suppose.
