    It’s not seeing a face in a thumbnail that bothers me. It’s when the expression on the face is one of absolutely fake surprise and shock that I take issue.

      Fair enough. Doesn’t really change what I said though. You’re very much in the minority with that take.

        I think that if you asked most people if they want advertising that centers around grown adults making idiot faces at the content they created themselves they would say no.

          Yes, I agree that if you ask a loaded question like that, you probably would get your desired answer.

          The data, however, points to people liking it. As I explained.

            You said the data shows it yet showed no data. You have explained your opinion and expect the reader to mistake is as fact.

                  You’re right. They do it for no reason, people hate it, and it costs them views, pretty much all creators just really want to put their faces on thumbnails.
