Today, I was watching a movie online. There was a 15 minute ad. 13 minutes into watching an ad about birth control, I noticed that there was a "skip this ad" button in the corner. FML

Today, during the trailers at the movies, my boyfriend elbowed me in the ribs and smiled when an ad for a weight loss institute was shown. FML

Today, at my workplace, a TV was installed just above my register at work which plays the same mind-numbingly awful 13 second ad on loop for the duration of our latest sale. The sale lasts for what are going to be three very long weeks. FML

IT'S A CONSPIRACY

Today, doesn't it piss anybody else off, as well as it seems a bit suspicious, that YouTube adverts will play perfectly without buffering or delay, yet the actual video you wanted to watch can spend almost 5 minutes buffering, and keeps stopping every 10 seconds to buffer again. FML

Today, I cancelled out of a video chat with my boyfriend to go take a dump. I took my computer with me to look at Facebook. It took three minutes for me to realize I was still on video chat. FML

Today, I sent my boss a link to a website I thought would answer a simple question she'd asked. Turns out, yes, the site did answer her question, but it also had some very suggestive ads on it. Apparently I'm the only person in the office who uses adblock. FML

Today, I was in a business meeting. I was giving a Powerpoint presentation to my boss and a few other associates. Then a notification popped up in the middle of my presentation reminding me that I needed to renew my pornhub subscription. FML

Today, I finished watching an entire movie after boarding the plane, before the plane even took off. FML

Today, my dad asked my help with a computer problem. Whenever he logged on Facebook, every single advertisement appeared to be hardcore porn. I had to awkwardly explain that these ads are based on his browsing habits. FML

Today, I was late to a sold out movie in the theater, so I had to shuffle in during the previews in the dark. I sat down in what I thought was the last vacant seat, but I'd really just sat in a small woman's lap. She was not happy. FML

And while you're at home watching that movie, there's a couple out there using that birth control.

Even if you don't notice the "skip ad" button, do you really have to actually watch the 15 minute ad? It doesn't occur to you to get up and do something else, or just do something else on the computer while waiting for the ad to be over?

So sad... you lost 13 minutes of your life watching an ad that you could have skipped. This is truly a terrible occurrence in your existence. I mean it is so bad... pity your life that you had to watch something... on birth control of all things. I mean how heartless and thoughtless could those people be to put an ad up that is 15 minutes long that you didn't think about skipping 13 minutes into it? Really? If this is as bad as it gets for you... count your blessings. OP you deserve it cause this is petty, this is just sad.
