      I can't believe how many YouTube ads are for...

      1. Things that I can't identify. Nothing in the ad tells me what to buy or do. It's just like some video of nothingness.
      2. Only states what they are selling in audio. I typically have audio off on YouTube so like... it's just some images of people standing in a field to me.
      3. Is for a product that I get the name of but have zero idea what it would be for or who could use it. I just saw one where they made the name obvious, but nothing in the ad gave a hint as to... what the product does at all. And the name means nothing to me.

      Like, I'd say more than half the ads I see can't sell me anything because it's just gibberish to me.

        I should add that of those ads that I can decipher, a huge percentage are for companies that provide the same services that I do. Things that I do myself, for free, because I'm an IT pro. So the amount of mis-targetting is crazy.

        And I don't drive. And I get a lot of car ads. Those are the "most applicable" that I get most of the time.

        The only truly good ads that I get are for subscription services... that I already have, lol.

          What is this odd phrase? Do those words go together like that? Or is this a translation of some idiom badly translated into english?

                          Glad you are okay,… not experienced one yet,, and like a tornado- no real desire to.

                              there's a new video up on Youtube about the Fukushima quake, tsunami, disaster put together from various sources by NHK.

                              I watched it the other day. some footage of the quake was horrific. it was very violent and just kept going.

                              the tsunami was just as horrific.
