What do you do during TV commercials?

I just laugh at how bad half the commercials are

Cry and cry until my tears are no more (or the program restarts)

Normally I would throw away any trash like chip bags, then go get more snacks. Then watch most of the commercials because you never know what you may find!

I usually open a new tab in my computer and do some quick little task.  Post on a forum, get a game started, something like that.  If it's on TV, though, and I'm alone... sometimes I talk back to them.

 

"Do you have a bladder control problem?"

"Oh my god, yes!"

And so on.

If commercials start to really irritate me, I usually go on /r/wheredidthesodago, basically a subreddit that pokes fun at commercials. haha

I seldom watch TV, but when I do and commercials come up, I just usually wait through them or go and do something like get a snack or go to the restroom.

I look at my phone. Honestly though I'm on my phone more than I am the tv.

I used to have a DVD recorder that had a 12 hour buffer, so I just waited a while before starting watching, so I could skip over the commercials. Today I don't watch anything that has commercials because why should I pay for the channel and also pay for the commercials? There are better options. TV is dead to me!

I don't watch many TV shows these days... But I would either record the show and skip the commercials, or if I was watching live for some reason, mute them and wait for the show to resume. I find most commercials absolutely intolerable (they're loud and annoying), I don't know how people can listen to them without losing their minds.

I don't watch much tv these days, but I use to enjoy mocking commercials.

Well nothing but just watch and wait for it to be over.

I don't pay for satellite TV so I can be bombarded by commercials, When they come on I turn the channel. If there are commercials on every channel I mute the TV or turn it off altogether. There isn't enough on most of the time to interest me anyway.

I usually get up and walk around, make a cup of tea, go the toilet or something to kill the time or make use of it.
