Thought of the day

I'm watching more shows on streaming services that have commercials. Most of the time I mute the volume to limit their impact on my mind. 

There's this one commercial I find interesting. They're announcing a new candy, and everyone goes crazy, they're afraid they both can't get enough of the new kind and that they won't be able to find the old kind. People jump out windows, put their heads into the wall, and generally go bananas. It's like reading social media. That's how people over react on social media. I mean it's OK to express yourself, and all, but it turns out most people's takes on things isn't that helpful or positive or insightful at times. In olden times people just wouldn't say anything. Now it seems they're mostly strongly expressed over reactions. Like the commercial. 

One interesting commercial out of hundreds and hundreds that are just trying to impress their product and name on your consciousness. I really find commercials distasteful, and I am grateful to Netflix for weaning me off of them. I'm pretty sure me whining about commercials is old.
