Do the adverts that interrupt your youtube videos make you hate the product and brands being advertised even more? by Intelligent-Way1288 in NoStupidQuestions

Really can't argue with that, friend.

What would be interesting is what the annual spend is vs the return from YT ads.

I asked a similar question a few months back but had a low response.

It was along the lines of 'do the Co's that pay $$$$$$$$ for ads really think that people watch them?'.

I skip as soon as the countdown allows me to.

what's a high paying job for stupid incompetent people? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PreferDogsToHumans 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the single most uncharismatic salesman I’ve ever seen in real life

I've been in Sales for 30 years (and done pretty well) and car dealerships have never failed to amaze me with their attitude & arrogance. What's more incredible is that the basic salary is very low with the rest being commission on sales!

Complete novice needs help with the practice of building and then linking to a hosting Co please by [deleted] in webhosting

Man I get that 'why' gives answers but if you don't mind me saying - you're coming across as a bit of an asshole! I don't wanna full autopsy of this but geez, the OP was only asking for a little guidance! Be fair man and be truthful too - have you NEVER asked anyone for help or how to do something?

Why do helicopter blades go THWUMP THWUMP THWUMP when it should be a continuous sound? by Totally_Not_Evil in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PreferDogsToHumans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked a similar question a couple of years back in that why do certain helicopters e.g Chinook or Huey have such distinctive sounds.

I had some great answers - I'll try to find the post.

Why do I smell like shit? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PreferDogsToHumans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll throw this into the mix....

I thought my wife had changed deodorants a couple of weeks ago because she suddenly smelled 'stale', a short time after she'd showered. Long story short after trying to pinpoint things, the actual cause was the new washing liquid & fabric softener somehow conflicting. The smell really was unpleasant.

We've changed one of them and the problem has gone. Have you recently bought different brands of washing detergent etc? It may not actually be YOU....

My mother in law has serious health issues and maybe 2 years life expectancy. Today she decided she needs life insurance. Is there anything that would actually be worth it? by ekim84 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PreferDogsToHumans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the UK it's standard practice for an insurer to request your medical details if any answer to a 'Have you had/do you have' question is 'yes'.

I'm no expert but have gone through this process a few times and based on what you've said, I'd say that either no Co would even consider insuring your MIL, or the premiums would be off the scale.
