Ads

Ads on the internet, as far as I can see, have progressive got more and more annoying, and underhand, and for the life of me, I can’t work out how the FUCK tricking me into clicking on a ad that tells me I’m going to get $20 if I hit the monkey, as well as gigs of free porn, an XBOX, revive my credit rating and fee pills that will add 18 meters to my penis before taking me to a site selling custom made female hygiene products is supposed to endear me enough to the company to buy anything. The logic behind those fake message box ads is just as bad "hey, lets piss off our would-be customers so much that though the tears of frustration at trying to reach the site they wanted, the buy our product by mistake!" As a result the concept of the internet running on advertising has failed miserably and every second site is closing or going payment only. WHEN THE FUCK WILL THEY LEARN THAT YOU NEED TO TARGET YOUR ADS TO THE RIGHT DEMOGRAPHIC FUCKWITS.

Thank you.

For refrence, if UT wanted ot put slashdot-style ads at the top that were targeted i'd have no problem ckicking them every now and then to help pay for this site.
