Extension Usage Instructions

                        This extension basically automates two things for you, so you can save yourselves a few seconds of time and avoid mundane tasks:
1. Auto-skips those 5 second ads on YouTube: 
YouTube usually plays ads before the videos, and these ads have a countdown timer of around 5 seconds before the ad can be skipped using the "Skip Ad" button, which only appears after few seconds. This extension tries to skip the ad immediately and automatically for you, even before the ad countdown timer ends. This works when the ad is a "skippable" ad. 
2. Dismisses those annoying overlay ads that appear over the video at the bottom, with a remarkably small button to close them.
