I could be homeless and I’d still scrape together the extra few dollars a month to pay for ad-free on every platform …. If you play your cards right the only time you have to watch ads (on mute if possible) is during football season

I use the YouTube app on my Xbox in my home theater.

Well, did you mention anything about his getting a J-O-B and taking that small responsibility on if he wants ad-free content????



He was joking, but…


My exact response was screenshotting both of their texts to me and sending to the family group thread and said “if both of you can’t live with ads till I re-enter my card, mom and I are happy to buy you AM/FM walkmans and experience the 80s”

You use your phone to project browser-based Youtube to the TV? And it's legit 4k quality?
