Today I'd like to talk about an advertisement I didn't like. Of course, advertisements are very lucrative for companies, especially online retailers, to sell their products. We see them everywhere, on television, radio, and the internet. I remember seeing one a few days ago that really bothered me. It suddenly popped up on my screen while I was having lunch. This advertisement showed a process of cleaning, and it made me feel a little dizzy. It was about cleaning instruments, like toilet cleaner and living room cleaner. The process they showed involved using these cleaning instruments to clean a toilet and a living room. It was just too much for me to handle while I was trying to enjoy my lunch.
