Advertising Gone Wild

Now days it seems like every where you go advertisements are being shoved in your face. There on billboards, commercials (obivously), radio, movies, Internet, and every where else. When there is not obvious advertising, there is usually hidden advertisements in movies and television shows. You can't avoid advertisements! They are in magazines and newspapers too. Whether you are driving down the road or at work, you are constantly being advertised to. It seems like everything is being sponsored now days, so brands are constantly being pushed in our faces. Little league sport teams are now being sponsored and they are required to where the brand on their uniforms. It is getting crazy! On the Internet, advertisements fill the pages and pop-ups are becoming more and more common (thank goodness for pop-up blockers)! Some web pages I can't even see well because they are so filled with advertisements. I think that advertising has become more intrusive and annoying. It makes me wonder what new ways companies are going to come up with to advertise its products/services.
