This happened to me yesterday at someones house. Was a painful 90 seconds learning about Crisco firewalls.

It's the opposite. Whenever I have to watch live TV, I get really aggressive and annoyed over the amount of ads
it was my mom who 'taught' me how to skip ads on tv. we had one of the earliest betamax when i was a kid, she recorded everything she watched and always fast-forwarded through the commercials. that first vcr had dials for channel changing and could only do one scheduled recording.. but it was used a lot
No not really, because I've also trained my eyes to immediately glaze over and flick away from any ads. It's kind of like riding a bike, you don't forget

I do watch television. The Finnish public broadcaster, so no ads. Really good use for tax money, people tend to say. The streaming service is incredible considering it's free and has no ads.

Not really, we get really mad at any a ads that are horrible. If it’s a good ad that’s a different thing ig
I actively look to ads on purpose to remember what NOT to buy anytime anywhere for all my life. I only follow ads from small creators when they are clearly not invasive or disruptive and only if they are supporting the creator clearly.
