What’s with adverts on TV? Why do they have to be so DAMN LOUD?!?
Jeez! I just nearly got deafened by a particularly loud advert. Do the TV companies actually believe we’ll buy their stuff if they shout it at us?
Here’s a brief experiment. When someone’s about to put some shampoo or face cream in their basket at the supermarket, run up behind them and shout “BECAUSE YOU’RE WORTH IT!!”
See what happens.
It’s no wonder that some TVs now come with built in software to mute them when they detect that characteristic volume spike at the start of the ads.
I don’t actually mind the ads. They’re often for products I want. I’m not going to harp on, like that guy I once saw who said: “If you leave the room when the adverts come on, you’re stealing TV.”
Ouch.
But do they have to be so DAMNED loud???
