You Tube is the holy grail of self reinvention. Just a short four minute video can change your life and inspire you at the same time. Unfortunately greed has once again set in by the powers that be. Well that is the powers of the music industry. For some reason they assume they are not getting enough money for their work. So now they are proposing to have us buy subscription packages to view music videos with out ads. I know what you are thinking, damn I hate those ads however, I don't mind them because I don't purchase anything because of an ad. I only purchase items because the girl on You Tube says it works. There is nothing better than a testimony which is why You Tube is so popular. You save so much money by watching other crazy people but stupid items which of course you were thinking of buying until you found out the shit don't work. I love You Tube just for that simple fact that someone else gets ripped off and not me.
However I love to watch music videos, like for instance Nikki Minaj's Anaconda video which is raunchy but it has the best exercises moves I ever seen. So I feel dirty and educated at the same time by just watching. So before the video starts there are ads which are annoying because of their length but I have some ideas on how to avoid them. There is no reason to pull out your credit card and subscribe to just avoid ads because in the end they win, by subjecting your credit info to mailers and spam email just so they can turn a profit. Think about it!
Here are some ways to pass time during annoying advertisements:
- Go Pee: Why? because everyone has to pee
- Go get a drink out the fridge
- Go outside and get the mail
- French kiss your boyfriend or girlfriend or both of your women
- Take a ride to the stop sign and turn back
- Take out the trash
- Comb your hair, I am sure it needs it
- Call Grandma and cut her off when the commercial is done
- Check your Whatsapp, you might have a message or two waiting
- Take a sleeping pill, and just forget about videos for the night
- Read the news online and see how the other crazy people around the world are doing
- Make comments on Facebook or make comments on popular You Tube channels
No matter what, you don't have to give in because they told you so, fight back and just go find something else to do and don't submit your credit card to this kind of torture.
