If the "Raid Shadyman" sponsorships sweeping the internet didn't hammer it home yet I don't know what to tell you.

It's an open secret that all sponsored ad breaks are (hopefully begrudging) exercises in self-debasement and entirely ingenuine. They're a tax on idiots and marketers, two decidedly not mutually-exclusive groups, taken in lieu of a full-time internet videographers' dignities.

TL;DR Ad breaks are bullshit and most content creators only expect retards to watch them.
