In Three Years, The Internet Will Annoy The Hell Out Of You.
It might not even take three years. It may have already happened.
The other day we tried to click through to a news article and were brought to a Toyota website so that we could customize our own Corolla.
There wasn’t even a re-direct button or a “skip this ad” option.
No, no. We need to buy a freakin’ car to read out news now. First of all, if you’re buying a Corolla, what’s the point in even customizing it? It’s freakin’ Toyota Corolla.
Second of all, we weren’t trying to buy a car, we were just trying to read a news article about John McCain’s cheatin’ heart.
This annoyed the hell out of us (The Toyota Ad, not John McCain’s heart).
And then THIS! Ugh. Freakin’ Google. Apparently we’re going to have to watch pre-roll and violator videos over ALL YouTube videos very soon.
At least ad agencies will get to keep making 30 second spots once Tivo kills Television! Yay!
In all seriousness, how annoying is it going to be to surf the internet once EVERY site makes you watch a commercial before consuming each piece of content?
While this will be extremely bothersome, it will also significantly increase the amount of time we spend perusing the interwebs.
We enjoy our Gmails and powerful search engines, but someone needs to put an end to Google’s reign of video terror!
Where is Gary Coleman when you need him?
