    Annoying (and poorly targeted) youtube ads.

    I am really beginning to detest those freakin' "Natty" beer ads. It's also an odd commercial to keep running into while I'm watching Strawberry Shortcake vids. As an adult I can just role my eyes at them. But these are probably not the best ads to run before vids kids are going to watch too. Start them young I guess. Gotta get them kids to pop open an ice cold Natty while watching Strawberry Shortcake and the Purple Pie Man sing the Berry talk song.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    That's nuts. I had a similar encounter on TV last week. We had Boomerang on, and in-between Looney Tunes and Scooby-Doo, Dish Network ran a commercial for WWE Divas reality show. Skanky half-naked women fighting and pulling each others hair, screaming and yelling, and they actually bleeped out the F-word in that one. Totally inappropriate on Boomerang at anytime, but definitely during "prime time".

      I was just thinking this a few days ago when I was watching some 70's Linda Ronstadt videos on youtube ---- Youtube kept playing loud video game adds before them...

      Seems to me a person interested in video games probably wouldn't be watching Blue Bayou and vise versa

        Yeah, the Call of Duty guys are probably not chilling out to Blue Bayou on youtube between online death matches.
