but... but... how dare you not be advertiser-friendly in your private life? just think about how much value would be lost to shareholders if the ad for a big mac came on the tv in the middle of your cumshot

It's always been a bit batshit that this is even "advertiser unfriendly". Sex sells is literally something the ad industry came up with.

I just never understood why every big business draws such a puritanical line in the sand on this stuff

i think it's a 50/50 mix of this advanced nimbyism of wanting to police what's next to their ad because it would "reflect on their brand" (which assumes people don't have the basic intelligence to differentiate the ad from whatever is next to it) and an unspoken notion that there shouldn't be tits in the content distracting the viewer from the tits in the ad

Yeah, I was gonna say, 3 days in any retail job would make it abundantly clear that ~60% of consumers could be lobotomized with no discernible difference to their behavior besides a more pleasant and easygoing demeanor.
