That's me
That's when we used to poop in the times before you could bring your internet connected screens with you.
Not even kidding, my dad watches YouTube on this smart TV and when an ad pops up he covers his eyes and screams until he finds the mute button. He then keeps covering his eyes until he can fully skip the ads.
I don't use an ad blocker anymore but I do pay for a bunch of services and I always pick ad free. I never see ads really.
If I were to use an ad blocker I would set up a pie hole or similar. I had that before and it worked pretty well but with the server side ads on YouTube you would still see those.
