Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I hate ads.

That's it. That's all I wanted to say. Just loathe them with a burning passion. More than i do anything else in my day to day life. I feel an urge to scream it into the world every single day just how much i despise ads and whoever invented them.

I hate ads.

I can't escape them. I feel like i'm trapped in a sick psychological torture experiment. Can't even go outside for a walk without seeing them everywhere. This is not how human beings should live.

I hate ads.

Do the people who make ads not feel any shame for what they are doing? Stop trying to sell me your shit, i don't want it! I don't want to give you my money, stop trying to take it away from me!

I hate ads.

I don't want to make things worse for you. I really don't. But I feel the same way about billboards and posters. We go about our day surrounded by ads of all types, both digital and physical, and once you sorta snap out of the haze and notice how unsightly and annoying they all are it's impossible to not be constantly annoyed by them.

I hate that driving down a nice road with trees and fields and pretty things is just FULL of dumb ass giant billboards the whole way. Like you can't look in any direction and see something nice, only ads fucking up the view. I hate it.
