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

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.
