A couple buddies are watching binge-watching Black Mirror.

"What's better than a couple of buddies hangin' out drinking ShttyBrw beer, eating BetterThanPizza, and binge-watching Netflix? This is great."

"You mean this six hour ad we've been watching?"

"What?... I thought we got lucky and this was ad-fre— Wait. This is just an ad? Why didn't you tell me? Why are we watching this?"

"There is no 'we'. You're on your couch yourself. I'm part of the ad." Disappears. And the pizza and beer are gone too.

"What the hell." And I don't think I can resist the urge to order a BetterThanPizza and drink that entire 12 pack of ShttyBrw in the fridge. Why did I buy that? It tastes like piss. "Oh, fuck."
