    I’m GenX and I honestly can’t stand to watch ads anymore, they’re all so stupid and I feel like I’ve put in my damn time already with the ads. I suppose that’s why most ads are aimed at younger people until they want to start selling you catheters.

      millennial here, I absolutely hate ads with such a passion that I will go very far out of my way to block ads. I’ve side loaded a YouTube alternative onto my TV to avoid ads. My parents (boomers) have no problem paying for xm radio and still being advertised to!

      My cell phone has literally all notifications turned off.

      Silent always. Never a pesky red dot telling me where to tap. Never a push notification reminding me that I should reconsider using something I obviously don’t need.
