So I have balls and yeah they’re the first thing on my body to start to smell. I can skip a shower if I’m in a hurry and I don’t smell much. That’s with working a job that’s usually physical. I was a punk kid fucking punk girls when I was younger and we didn’t bathe every day. I didn’t notice much smell then.

Now I see these ads regularly that are like hey women you stink after 12 hrs 5/10. What’s up?

    This is on cable TV. I don’t see ads online because I’m not a fucking idiot. I think cable ads are the same across the country but I’m not sure.

      Cable ads aren’t the same across the country, and very soon won’t be the same across the city. Addressable TV will bring personalized ads no matter what you’re watching.

      As to why you may see a bunch of ads for similar products all of a sudden, there are a couple causes. When a new company/product comes on the market, they may flood the airwaves with ads to get their name out there, or they may not be familiar with how buying and scheduling TV ads works and will cluster things together so it seems like a barrage instead of spread out over longer periods. Also, when new competition comes to the market, the current leaders get nervous and increase advertising to retain their customers and try to keep them from changing brands. Lastly, it’s the phenomenon about noticing something which causes you to notice it even more (I.e. “there weren’t as many of [my car] on the road before I started driving one.”)
