Being Normal for Once.

What I find strangest of all about YouTube ads is this: Nearly every video you set playing runs for about ten seconds and then a banner ad appears on the screen, partially obstructing whatever it is you’re trying to watch. That’s pretty irritating, right? So surely, everybody but everybody must rush for the little cross in the corner and switch the damn thing off.

That being the case, why do advertisers pay money to have their ad presented that way? Am I to believe that there really are people out there in the world who will forego their chosen video and click on the ad instead? If that is the case, I defy anybody to seriously claim that I’m the weird one around here.
