Orrrrrrrrr... download adblock plus and forget about ads. The only ones that bother me now are the ones that appear before you get to where you wanted to go. The ad doesn't pop up thanks to ABP, but a blank page with a link that says 'Continue to the shit you wanted to see' gets loaded up, and it's only slightly annoying. With no TV and ABP on the net, I've probably cut 90% of advertising out of my life.
@cariberry19 imho the trouble with AdBlock is that in trying to stop the people with crappy adverts, you harm those sites who do respect the user. Unless you have it all default to allow, and only choose to block some sites.
Ads also eat bandwith like no other. There is a Swedish newspaper who, on their website, has about 2 megabytes (yes, seriously) of adds and approximately 430 kilobytes (including images related to the articles) of accrual (bad) news...
I like how your reaching for the door handle at the end subtly draws my eye to the rate option. Also, this new vlog style is sweet and your points were very agreeablem. A recent advertising annoyance that springs to mind were those bloody Legion ads on dtoid, hope that doesn't become a trend.
After watching this I want to buy whatever you're selling.
