Disgusting Amazon advertisement

[slo town]

This video advertisement pops up whenever I'm reading an article on the forum I follow F1 news.

Not only is this woman (Joyce Lui-City) eating like she's in a drug induced trance, the food on the corner of her mouth is disgusting.

But it made you think about it and post about it Might be a weird ad but it sure did its job! Hehe

I find this disgusting. Hey, I know, let's share it with everybody!

Mission accomplished.

People complain about Lake Speed but post his stuff almost every day (I kind of like the guy).

People complain about Scotty Kilmer but used to post his stuff almost every day. He's either dead or a millionaire, I don't know.

Posting their videos are are big wins for their Youtube channels. I don't think my screen shot of this Amazon as is the same thing - but I hear you.

I can tell you this, the F1 forum I've followed for a well over a decade has become so polluted with pop ups I've decided to get my F1 news elsewhere. This Amazon ad was the final straw. So in a way, "mission accomplished" by both Amazon and the F1 forum.

OK I'll BITE.

What are they advertising?

It's an Amazon Prime commercial, she orders things from AMZN and watches cooking shows to learn how to make her lunch. Seen it 100 times on USA TV, never even noticed she had a crumb in the corner of her mouth!

Trash social media zombies will LOVE these types of advertisements.

I don't know what forum that is so I'm not defending it, but do you realize they may have no control over what ads are shown ?

Looks to me like someone that's eating but is very, very focused on whatever it is that they're reading or watching Honest question: What is the "drug induced" looking part ?

I didn't know that. Who does Amazon pay for those adverts to be broadcast?

I miss the days of endless advertising pop-ups on websites, Youtube, etc., before I enabled an Ad-blocker...

Appreciate the offer, but I'm good.

This forum is the only one I visit that has these pop ups. It's also a forum that allows people to comment on the news story (many times the comments are more informative and amusing than the news story itself).

Anyway....there have been dozens, if not hundreds, of recent comments from users complaining about these pop ups. Many have said they are done with the forum just because of this.

I live in California. Half the state speaks Spanish. I took three years of it in high school (69-71), getting pretty good at it. I even traveled for month in Mexico as a teen, taking trains and busses all over the country. Why my parents let me do this is beyond comprehension (I returned home sick as a dog with Hep A). Anyway, it's a classic case of use it to lose it. I wished I re-learned the language when I retired, just to exercise my mind.

You are being very helpful but I'm good with what I have. Much appreciated!

I've been flirting with abandoning this F1 site for awhile anyway. Too much sensationalism for my liking. It's like reading the National Enquirer of F1 news.

Yes but still recommend it for rest of the internet except BITOG
for the most part its flawless and if you have some issue you can always turn it off for that site.

It’s a generalized ad then. Thanks
