    There is an option in your settings that will turn them back on - that's what I have to use so I can see them :D

    I hope my wife wasn't using my computer to check out what's on at the Opera House! (She takes the kids to Babies Proms and other events occasionally)

    What's a baby prom? Is that like tantrums and tiaras?

    It's called "banner blindness" - the more you visit the site, the less likely you are to click on the adverts because you subconsciously block them out as less important than the content you are wanting to read.

    WTF?

    "We do cyborg transplants - by replacing your head with a jet engine ... " - umm, you'll do what exactly?

    I just don't get it.

    I was on my phone today reading a post on here... Then there seemed to be some auto play video advertisement that made lots of noise. Has this happened to anyone else?

    You know that ads are targeted based on what cookies you have (and by extension, what sites you've visited recently), right?

    (Belkin is a tech company which makes computer peripherals - no idea why they are giving away diamonds).
