Competing for attention isn’t cute

My life hasn’t ben the same since I enrolled in this class. Listening to music is especially painful. Realizing that most of the artists I listen to don’t actually have that much talent hurts me and the commercials competing for my attention isn’t cute. It’s loud, and obnoxious. I am not buying it.

I thought what you said about the commercials competing for your attention was really interesting because it wasn’t something I had ever really noticed before. I had my first conscious experience when I was watching The Fosters on the Freeform app and I noticed that one commercial inparticular played louder than the other five that played during the commercial break. These six commercials play on repeat like every 17 minutes in the show, probably to pay for the show, but one was particularly louder than the rest. While I watch the show I am usually doing something else, like cleaning or homework, but in this time in particular time I was crafting and even though I was aware and concious that the add got increasing louder on purpose and to expect it, I still looked up every time because it was noticeably louder and caught my attention.

I was getting frustrated with the advertisements because I was annoyed at how loud the commercial was. Like who did they think they were???? They aren’t that special. So basically, in conclusion, you have ruined music and television for me. Thank you.
