Advertising Avoider Mugs

"I've finally reached the age when the advertising people leave me alone!"

I came up here because I got tired of being targeted by advertisers.

The things some people do to escape from McDonald's advertising.

"These targeted ads are getting out of hand."

"Let's see what's going on in the world."

"Sale. Save 100% of your energy by closing this website. Close now. No, thanks."

'So glad we ticked the no publicity box.'

'There's more information available now than ever before. I can only block out so much of it.'

'I'm going to prescribe for you to stay away from the news on TV and all social media!'

"I'm not getting out of bed. What's the point? Things keep getting worse every day. Even my toothbrush depresses me... I'll just continue sleeping until the world comes to its senses." "Amen."

"I'm doing a Kickstopper project!" "What?" "I was going to write a book... but do we really need another book in this world? So... Kickstopper—people donate money to stop me from writing. I won't write it so I'll never ask you to read it. I'd pay money to not read your book. Thanks." "You're welcome." "I'm also starting projects to not start a band, not write poetry and not tell you about my dreams."

'Every single piece of homework handed in this morning - there couldn't have been much on TV last night!'

Dream Advertisements.

"Oh good, there's nothing on."

2016 Policlicks

The Occupy a Barstool Movement.

'Oh, Goody, football - we'll be able to talk without feeling we're missing something.'

'How To Say No To Sales People'.

"I envy you, not having any idea of what's going on these days."

An agony of aunts

'I hate networking.'

It's new from British Telecom, a telephone ignoring machine.

"Oh my God have you seen this sh-"

"My insomnia is getting worse, doctor - I can't even sleep now when there is a party political programme on television."

"Must...not gaze into...his eye! For I may...never break free!"

'Vice is one thing but advice is far worse!'

"At last — no Trump."

"Now isn’t this better than that silly Super Bowl game?"

'Thurlow, the difference between you and me is that I was smart enough not to take my own advice.'

'The news on tv is SO depressing, I've decided to stop watching it.' 'Is that permitted?!'

'Okay. If this new TV's as smart as a computer, where's the 'Skip Ad' button?'

"Just more Junk Mail."

"All these ads keep popping up for the stores in the shopping center. Maybe I should run a scan for mallware."

Day two of my political diet. I haven't watched FOX, or MSNBC. I haven't read the news pages of the paper. Scribble scribble scribble scribble scrib - I also haven't had any sweats, or racing hearts or hives. Write write write write scribble write. So I can probably start watching Hannity again tomorrow! Absolutely not. Doctor's orders!

"This is where I go to get away from reality TV."
