Sure, because it was my friend's computer and I thought it would be funny if he got more pop-ups for boner pills and also I was 12.

Nope, I'll even specifically avoid companies that I see or hear excessive ads for. When I needed to change car insurance a while back and had a list of options going, I immediately removed all the ones I could remember seeing advertising for.
Two reasons:
-
I have an unhealthy hatred of advertising.
-
They're spending an absurd amount of money on digital spam as opposed to making their product/service better or cheaper. Some percentage of what you pay for in the product is to cover their advertising campaigns, and I prefer that percentage be as small as possible.
No. Ads are essentially scams.
I clicked on a porn add when I was a child. It shattered my world in a very good way
to provide an answer from the advertiser’s perspective, they are very aware that the Click Through Rate (CTR) is incredibly low, as corroborated by the comments, actually measured at about 0.2%.
because it’s so small and potentially difficult to track, other metrics besides CTR are used alongside by marketers, including total impressions, conversion rates between other channels and, yes, tracing your browsing history by way of cookies and other invasive digital tools.
Yeah, saw a neat looking cat toy in an ad, and bought it.
It was an ad for a motorized ball about as big as a golf ball, lights up and kinda rolls/jumps around on its own as long as the cats nudge it. Eventually sleeps when they stop playing with it.
It is exactly as advertised, but the cats are only kinda interested in it. We still recharge it and put it out for them occasionally.

Have you tried giving them the box it came in?
Sorry can't hear you over the size of my GIGANTIC PENIS
Your comment implies that your GIGANTIC PENIS makes a GIGANTIC NOISE, and that has me intrigued.
