YouTube has been cracking down on people using ad blockers. Now, a spokesperson says that using ad blockers could lead to "suboptimal viewing."

    I remember waiting 30 minutes for 75% of a badly compressed 1 minute pornvideo to load, I can outlast whatever they throw at us.

      Good thing you only needed 75% of that 1 minute porn video, or you’d have had to wait even longer.

        It’s the expectation and imagination in the meantime that does it.

          At some point just seeing the progress bar increase a notch might be enough.

        Please, I’m not a marathon runner.

        I only needed 3 seconds.
