I'm so conditioned by ads on social media that I automatically inspect Lemmy posts when I'm browsing.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Having experienced it myself back in the wild days of the net before I discovered ad blockers, they were so omnipresent that you just kinda ignored them. Like noseblindness making you ignore a smell you're used to, but when other people come in your home they ask you wtf that smell is.
that sounds about right. its always a shock to see non """"tech-savvy"""" or tech-literate people just staring mindlessly at ads interrupting their shows or videos at a damn near criminal frequency. i absolutely cant staaaand it lol.
