Am I resistant to advertisements, or is it all mirage? (sh.itjust.works)

I saw a post about how nerds are resistant to advertising, which is bs imo considering how obsessed many nerds to products. But then, I do not seem to get affected - I usually do not desire to buy a product, and only seek out what to buy when needed.

That is, I feel like adverts do not work on me. Is this an illusion? Or maybe, is it that many adverts are made to appeal to neurotypicals?

Whatever’s on sale that day at the grocery store unless it’s store brand toilet paper because I bought like a 48 pack of that once and it was truly awful. Like wiping with pie crust. So in that case I unfortunately go with a brand that advertises but, to their credit, it doesn’t flake apart into shreds just while bring transported from the pantry to the bathroom
