Once had a friend who said she had 3 middle names. Then she said what I thought I heard as Julianne. I thought she was joking and laughed at her joke.

Then she got mad, called me stupid, then clarified that her 3 middle names were Jewel Lee Ann.

I still thought she was joking. She was not.

The dash don't be silent

I'm always the pink car but get cut off by car A who decides to gun it soon as I'm right where pink car is

Even if it wasn't shooting blanks, there's also wind, and trajectory and stuff like that

Huh? My s21+ screen reads my thumbprint with the screen off

Good. Fuck seagulls. Fucking pricks

Lol they're all old people

See this is a good example of when that word should be acceptible to use

Yeah but ad is short for advertisement.

Advertisements are something to make you buy something you wouldn't otherwise think of buying. They come in the form of billboards, banners on websites, commercials on TV during commercial break.

Okay yeah a preview for content that's on the same platform can be like an ad, or a type of ad, but I've already paid for the streamijg service so it's not really trying to get me to spend extra money on something else so I guess that's why I think of them seperately from ads.

As for FBI warnings and producer logos (besides displaying the logo of whomever made the thing you're already watching), what are they advertising?

Apple put some ads up for other shows of theirs, but made them skippable

TBH I don't get why we call those ads. Back in the day of VHS/DVD, we called those previews. That's still how I think of them, and imo there's a difference between that an an advertisement, which would be for a car, investment app, brand of tampons, etc that have nothing to do with the streaming platform's content they have to offer.

Why do we lump the two things together?

I get 1st, 2nd, and 3rd person, but 4th person is a new concept to me and I'm trying tl wrap my head around it given your examples. This is intersting

Edit: OOOOHH so it's like 3rd person where you're talking to the second person about another person, BUT instead of that person being a specific person (3rd person) it's more like a "they/them" kind of thing where it's not any specific person but just... Anyone at all?
