Before my uncle's funeral, an ad starts and we, the family, look at each other awkwardly. Is it rude to skip the ad after 5 seconds because it makes us look eager to mourn?

Or is it worse to watch the entire ad? What if the company is advertising a way to bring my uncle back? What if I'd only find out at the end, after the pretty people finish driving their new car down winding roads to ukulele music, hair blowing in the wind, a young woman's foot out the window bobbing in time?

@signalstation my usual approach to people showing ads to a captive audience at an inappropriate time is provide a critique of the sales pitch and then bill them at my commercial consulting rate of $250/hour, four hour minimum.

The idea is that if they're using my situation for profit, than so can I. They got paid to show me an unwanted ad, so why shouldn't I get paid to provide them an unwanted report?
