OMGWTF LMAO?!?! CLEAN SOCKS!!! (final exam in approximately 10 hours)

What kinds of things do you hate doing, but do anyways because society would frown upon your actions otherwise? For instance, personally I hate doing laundry, washing dishes, general cleaning, shopping, paying bills, waking up before noon, and trying so damn hard to be sociable/personable…. [ edit: oh yea, and I hate studying too ]

So I was sitting in an IRC channel today and Dan pointed out a comic at UserFriendly and the “Link of the Day” was to a pretty neat looking site, Wrecked Exotics.

Anyways, they have all kinds of ads there, some graphical, some text, some flash. Now, I hate most all kinds of advertising and I actively block pop-ups and images coming from a number of known ad servers. Flash ads are by far the worst because they can often crash web browsers and can’t be blocked without blocking all flash from everywhere. Now, they had something new to me… a speaking advertisement!! Yes, the ad actually talked to me, and it frightened me enough to stop looking at the crashed exotic cars for a few minutes.

< psa > Please, never click on ads anywhere, if you are interested in the product, do a google search or something. If you click, it only encourages the use of advertisements, which is generally an eyesore and wastes bandwidth. < / psa >
