Do you remember those painfully cringey mobile game ads where a miserable level 1 crook helps out a woman that's being chased by a few guys and becomes a lavish level 35 boss?

Adapt or die. This statement could be used to "motivate" everyone and everything from single-cell organisms to cassette tapes.

So we at Bored Panda decided to search through the internet and collect the funniest evolution memes we could find. The world is constantly changing and we need to keep up!

That's true! I can't seem to make out most new movies and series anymore as they've all gotten so dark they're almost black. How can we stop this stupid trend?

Not to mention HOW and WHEN they cut away for the ads in the middle. They don’t run the ads at a natural pause in the action and dialog. No. They cut, suddenly and unexpectedly, in the middle of a sentence, in the middle of a dance, in the middle of the action. That shows a distinct lack of respect for what is being shown in the video, which means a total lack of respect for those who contribute every single one of the very videos that f*****g MADE YouTube what it is! What needs to happen is for YouTube to have a viable commercial-free competitor—-one they just can’t manage to crush—-that takes all their business away.

This. Is. So. Accurate. Corporate greed. By the way, interrupt my video and I will never purchase from you.

I got an unskippable 15-second ad... on a video that was 10 seconds long. 😐

When you go watch a movie trailer on YouTube, and you get an ad before the video that is the trailer you're trying to watch: task failed successfully

I don't understand why they would harm their product by adding ever more commercials, rather than just charging more to run the commercials they already have. Clearly, there are plenty of companies willing to pay.

But first a b***h about the fact you have an ad blocker which never seems to be on the tool bar.

So true. Ads on YouTube are annoying! I once wanted to watch a quick 10 Second video or so, and it had an unskippable 30 second ad before it! Or once I wanted to put on some music to do chores and settled on a 3 hour compilation of party music. After every second or third song they were interrupted by ads!

YouTube premium, worth it. Or an ad blocker if you don't have the money for premium.

I grew up with a black and white tv with a roof antenna that got 3 broadcast with commercials and 1 public station with pledge drives depending on the weather. I can handle 15 seconds worth of ads on YouTube.

Hey, at least you have the option to pay to disable all of them! If you’re not paying, don’t expect a great service because you are not a customer. Advertisers are.

True story: Radio was originally invented to bring commercial advertisements more easily into the home, but they realized people wouldn't just listen to ads all day, so they created radio programs and music to keep people listening. They didn't create radio to bring entertainment programs into the home, and then pay for it with ads. It was the other way around. Ditto TV. The programming was an afterthought. The original purpose was to advertise.

Pandas, is this a reference to youtube on mobile device? I use youtube daily on my PC and I never see an ad unless it is part of the actual video (presenter talking about the video's sponsor). I am not a premium member. I do have an ad blocker I use to minimize web surfing ads but AFAIK it isn't doing anything to youtube. (though maybe it is?)

The worst is when they advertise as a sponsored video. 7 minute video to tell you about Simplisafe for 4 minutes.

Like going to a theater to watch a movie these days. LOTS of ads before it starts, some for TV shows.

Yeah.. And today it got to point when it is not worth it to play any online competitive game, if you are not a cheater. This is one of the reasons I left the shooter games probably forever. So sad.

The temperature required to kill the infection is way higher than the temparature your body can survive. The reason you get a fever is because certain proteins work faster when warm so your immune system works faster to get rid of the infection.
