Is it weird that I enjoy analyzing ads more than simply watching them now?

I've noticed that I pay more attention to little things in advertisements, like how they grab attention, introduce a product, or convince people to take action. Ever since I started learning about marketing, I can't help but look at ads differently. Has anyone else started doing this, too?

I've started catching myself doing this whenever an ad pops up while I'm scrolling. Instead of just watching it, I end up thinking about why they chose that opening line, how they presented the product, or what made the offer appealing. It's funny how learning marketing has changed something I used to scroll past without a second thought.
