Have you ever clicked on an ad on purpose?

Just as the title says: Have you ever clicked on an ad, knowing it was an ad, on purpose? What ad was it? Why did you click it?

Curious because I realized I have not once in my life clicked on an ad shown online on purpose. Accidentally, and being tricked into clicking the wrong thing sure; never with intent though.

  • I have purposely clicked on ads for some video games. It isn't worth the click even then since you end up on some marketing railroad that doesn't lead directly to the steam page.

    • Same for me, on occasion I've discovered decent games by clicking on the ads on mobile. Since I know it's going to open up the play store, it doesn't feel as sketchy.

      However, the vast majority of the time I back out after taking a look at the game page.
