It's cool, most of their unskippable ads have a secret "skip this garbage" button of their own: next to the video timer on the ad, there's a little i in a circle, and if you click on it, there's usually a link that lets you cut the ad off and skip it, and it throws a "but why?" mini-questionnaire at you, with one of the options being, "irrelevant." Google HQ has received well over a thousand reports from me about damn near all their dumbshit ads being irrelevant, by now.

The worst part about the microsoft solitaire collection is the ads and the game have different sliders for the volume, so if you mute the game to listen to music, the ad will play at max volume as soon as it starts.

The plagiarism one can actually be so frustrating, especially in KS3 higher level, since they follow an examination boards curriculum, meaning most places with that will do the same/similar assignment questions. If you have 30 people in a course per year, and the school's plagiarism (Turnitin for me) software is connected to 100+ other schools, then as the years go on people's assignments can come up with higher plagiarism scores. My school used to just go off the percentage given, but now looks in detail at the plagiarism results, since it will literally pick up two words next to each other as plagiarism (For example, on an assignment about veterinary surgeons, the worlds "veterinary surgeons" came up as a plagiarised phrase for some people. Just that). So some people were getting like 1% plagiarised from like 40 different sources, such as essays written by people all over the world, making it up to like 30% of random 1 percentages. Like not even things people could cite, just if two or so words came up in a sentence as someone else writing the same topic? Plagiarism apparently

[@randomwerewolf1099]

Seriously? When I was at university they would only look into plagiarism cases if turnitin gave a percentage of 40% or higher (or if there were other reasons to suspect plagiarism) but suspecting plagiarism at 1% is insane, especially when you're supposed to be quoting people etc.

@Ace G I know, specially when they are implemented in a way that they dont interrupt the Game. Thats why I find it sad that an old game does it so right when modern ones dont

[@mcdonnell-douglasdc-1056]

For me, that's the first Postknight game. Free to play, doesn't require Internet connection to play (though you might need it for other game mechanics like item contributions). This game was one of the rare instances where I tolerate ads, because after watching some ads (1-2 ads, no more than a minute long, requires Internet connection) you can receive your reward, fully heal your character or skip the timer for new quests, deliveries or items in the item shop.

I can’t be the only one who gets excited when Lexi narrates just because of how pretty her voice is

[@lanaqqw]

1:27 yes yes, that's definitely how to make anybody give you their data, not suspicious or anything haha

[@-Aerox-1840]

For the first one- The game is Mech Arena and you don't need to complete it. There's about 5 of "Share this game with a friend" tasks and 1 make 1 ingame purchase. There's 6 extra things you can do that you could still complete the mission (get an Arachnos mech)

12:16 no way I've been looking for that album ever since I heard it on my iPad when I was 6 I'm am currently 13 holy shit

[@skyeandcotton8107]

12:10 This EXACT problem is on my mum’s devices and it drives me NUTS

[@cjlite0210]

11:22 It's the mobile version, it's never had the ad markers

[@GigaMoth]

Yo story time. When I was 12 I got an iPod touch for my birthday. It was the first non mp3 or Nintendo electronic I was allowed to have and I was so excited. I couple of months later I was showing my Dad something on my iPod when I accidentally opened the music app and the Songs of Innocence album popped up. Given the cover my Dad freaked tf out and took away my iPod. I didn’t get it back until I was like 16 and had a phone. Thanks apple.

[@e_hill6705]

7:47 I got an ad right after this sentence

[@thatguyondiscord]

Same

[@NekoEchoflower]

9:50 Blue Buffalo was the company who made animal food. But they basically didn't care for production at all and led to multiple fatal animal poisoning. Basically pet murderers aka Peta 2.0

[@lorincfoldesi7273]

11:28 i thought that was normal!

[@RGC_animation]

You can actually sue companies who tries to hide or disable the unsubscribe button because it is illegal.

[@stargazer1998]

Episode 13 of me reminding people that Lexi is a trans woman and her pronouns deserve to be respected

[@UntalentedBrick]

Thank you for reminding me :D

[@eddiegluskin67]

Yes, she is and yes they do. -Self-proclaimed Lexi lover.

[@InessaMaximova]

Lexi, narrating r/assholedesign? "A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one" 4:24 Me, an european: Hold on how much is Indian Rupee to dollars **google** YO 20 BUCKS FOR A YEAR FOR A SUPER DUPER ACCOUNT? THAT'S A STEAL 7:35 Man, I remember when this game was free built-in with win10 like, five years ago. Got me bored and frustrated tho as it's a perfectionist nightmare.

[@sumpyy]

11:37 an *17 seconds* unskippable ad??????????????

[@BucketHeadianHagg]

*I adore your humor, Lexi. You have a wholesome heart!*

[@Cl-2048]

this is so fucking ominous

[@ireneparkin3360]

5:17:- that's the Xbox Live store. To make it worse, Microsoft has no "cool off" period. So if you buy a game from the Live store on PC and your PC can't run it, you're going to have a bad time.

[@GhostofKittyKatDawg]

Actually they do have a cool off period, You can get your money back before a set amount of time has passed (about 3 days). I've done it with a couple of times before, all you have to do is contact microsoft

[@ireneparkin3360]

@@GhostofKittyKatDawg on their console's you don't.

[@WillARing2]

15:27 Sometimes I get apparently ‘2’ ads when in reality the first one just repeats. If this was combined with the 3 ads this could go up to a minute of unskippable ads.

[@chillcreep4926]

Everything in this video upset and infuriated me. Plus I believe cribbing content without alteration from Reddit is ridiculous. But.. I'm always so entertained by Lexi's presentation and commentary that it's an overall enjoyable and fun experience. Thanks! Keep up the good work!

[@ssps9832]

13:03 be honest, I rarely get even 10% tip on most orders

[@irminalasimin2385]

0:01 I literally played that game and stopped because of THIS ANNOYING THING

[@gigaslime3627]

0:01 that firat one was just a single task an EXTRA TASK so you could finish it faster, you could complete them for absolutely free, and the game id actually nice it's mech arena and they're not greedy at all they actually give free in game currency i even rwach the top in daily leaderboards even when I'm on the highest rank

[@LandonMcAfee]

Fun fact: “McAfee” is usually pronounced “Mack-Uh-Fee”

[@darthslain]

fun fact: the creator is a utter madman now

[@gayahhbihh]

No, i refuse.

[@tpcito52]

I've found like too many of those fake money ads, one of them was of like a 100 euro bill, then you flipped it and there was the ad. Got extremely excited as a kid, will never forget

[@leowengler6501]

The mech arena one isn’t that bad, cause you can get the rewards even without completing that quest

[@darkillusion531]

i came crossed thus quest but the only left on the Quest is the "Make any purchase"

[@junisapotato6967]

I got recommended this video and now I’m happy that the narrator is Lexi! “What’s up sexy I am lexi” I just love the intro
