Ancient Egypt. The pinnacle of human society. Everything went downhill after
the Late Bronze Age, and I'm not afraid to admit it.
Haiku
Silhouettes from sand,
Reaching atop pyramids,
Ancient pharoahs call.
This truth has become self evident to me.
Society has become a cesspool, full of
anti-consumer practices that are becoming
more oppressive as the days go by.
A shining star example of this practice is the use of ads. Advertisements are most
likely the biggest, most constant annoyance I face on a day-to-day basis. Advertisements
are intrusive, annoying, repetitive, and ultimately do nothing to make me want
to purchase or consume anything they show.
I am not joking when I say that I have not consumed a single soft drink in my
entire life. I have tasted some, yes, but I have
never bought nor finished a single can or bottle for my entirety of me living on this earth.
Why is that, you ask? I hold an irrational vitriol for all advertisements I come across.
I go so out of my way to avoid advertisements almost to the point of absurdity.
When watching YouTube on my phone, I avert my gaze and turn the volume down
whenever I see an ad on my screen. They will not win.
I have seriously considered switching to an android device solely due to the fact
that you can install ad-blockers on it. I am not entirely sure where this hatred
for ads stemmed from, but I believe it started to show its face a few years ago.
Totally unrealted but I have the ability to make the random generating line go
in whatever direction I wish.
At every step the function either goes up or it goes down by one.
