“I am furthering the ado. Pray I do not further it any further.”
Many people don’t really think about their language. They kind of snap their phrases together like a child with those big duplo blocks.
Most of the time that’s fine, if a bit limiting. But occasionally you get glimpses into how communication could be clearer, or more accurate, if they thought about their words more.
I partly blame our public education system. Not enough funding, some funding misused, other problems I don’t even know about. But it feels like a lot of people are barely educated, and don’t have any intellectual curiosity.

As I was grabbing my things, the lady ringing me up at goodwill said “last but not least, your receipt.”
I got to my car before I thought “what part of this transaction could be less than the receipt?”
When the product malfunctions.
the statement itself is part of the ado. Just say the thing you made the video to say
Ado II: The Adoening
Ado II: Ads

My favourite is a football channel who uses that line deliberately to drop additional lore about former DC United player Freddy Adu. Every 👏 Single 👏 Video 👏
It’s great!
Fuck yeah, SponsorBlock! 🤘

I love the statistics it gives you
Does this fast forward past ad reads in YouTube videos?
Basically. It’s community driven, so people have to mark sections of the video as an ad, or filler, or whatever else it may be. Then you can set it up to skip particular sections, mute during them, or other things.
It makes it really easy to mark segments too, so while new or unpopular videos may not be marked when you watch them, it’s easy for you to add the marks for others who see it.
On cable once they came out with DVRs you could skip the ado. Now there are unskippable ados and it’s much worse.
Anything’s skipable if you try hard enough
Just a lot easier on a computer than TV. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/sponsorblock/
I use sponsorblock, it’s great, but it only applies to that type of streamer content/ad. And it doesn’t have full coverage for that. It doesn’t help if your streaming service has unskippable ads. And Google is inching closer to insert ads into the Youtube video stream dynamically which will make them truly unblockable.
With Spotify you can’t even mute an ad without it pausing until you unmute.
I know it suck overall.
It’s a lot less convenient and definitely past the gray line, but I pay for Spotify premium (optional), but pretty much never actually listen to music via Spotify. https://github.com/spytify
Much ado
When the ado furthers
With only a comparatively small amount of ado…
Oh wow, little strange to see Pulsar’s account outside certain furry circles :o He ain’t wrong tho.
Also this usually follows 2-3 minutes of just waffling about bullshit. It doesn’t help if you put your ‘further ado’ ahead of that statement either, jackass, just get to the damned point.
I hated this in the early days of minecraft modding. “see video below for install instructions”. The video is 30 minutes long, all I need to know is which modloader this uses or do I dump it in the .jar
Ugh, I dunno what it was specifically about minecraft videos, maybe that’s just what was popular at the point in time where the algorithm worked the way it did to encourage it or something, but they were the fucking WORST about this.
Also, some people will type “without further adieu,” which is similarly infuriating.
