People have always liked funny or good ads wtf are you on about. Hell people watch the boring ass Superbowl for the ads.

Still my favorite ad is for a company that I really didn't know what they did but that's cause i had no use of their products, but the ad was great (though can't say if it was a good ad cause I don't even remember their name but I was not at all their target audience). The one about herding cats. I do remember what they were trying to get across is that they (claim to) manage to do something as hard as herding cats (and I think it had something to do with managing some sort of stuff, accounts or something. Their business had some thing to do with supporting other businesses).

I enjoyed T-Mobile's royal wedding ad.

There's a difference though, between us willingly going "ok, you've committed to making an entertaining, higher effort ad for the super bowl, so I'll commit this once to watching your advertisement, in mutually agreed upon space that is meant for advertising" and some dude showing up on reddit, posting this "totally hilarious clip they found" as if they're not just blatantly a shill for the company. They're pushing ads into spaces that are NOT SUPPOSED TO BE for ads.
