And on mobile I can’t make it all the way through a Jamboroo without a Walmart gift card phishing scam redirect.

The disappearing adds are the one’s that drive me nuts. I’m trying to read the damn article then all of a sudden I have to re-scroll because some add vanished.
34 blocked here, I’ll gladly close that fucking whitelist reminder a thousand times before I sit through one of those accidentally-rolled-over-this-and-now-it’s-fullscreen fucking bullshit banner ads.
Using the site on my phone is an exercise in futility.
Exactly. I don’t mind looking at ads (I sort of like them), I just refuse to wait that long for them to load.
The giant expanding banner across the top...the auto-play videos, the gutter ads. And to top it all off, the sponsored posts (which don’t get blocked). I’ve seen days where it’s three sponsored posts in a row on the scroll. And been tricked into commenting on them!
Deadspin and the other GawkerGizmodo sites are the reason I installed an ad blocker after refusing to use one for years because I wanted to support content on the internet. There’s “support” and then there’s “accept 11+ scripts loaded per page that slow the site to a crawl on a PC with 32 GB of RAM and a fast…
It’ s not just the videos. Load the site without an adblocker and it’s fucking horrendous. The normal empty whiteness is encased in shit. My blocker is currently showing 31 blocked ads.

I tried to read several of Simmons’ books but only managed Hyperion (which is great). Terror lost me after about half of it, it was just too long and repetitive for me.
Yeah, the book really lost the plot in the latter third. Once the mystery is revealed to be completely bizarre (in a bad way in my opinion) I struggled to finish.
If it’s faithful to the book, it will be riveting until halfway through the final episode, when it will become complete unwatchable garbage.
Four Thors and seven series ago...
Or I just didn’t feel the need to type out everyone’s full name all the time.
You were *so* intent on criticising Katharine and defending Moore that you completely missed that the quote was referring to David Eyck.
How about Kessel, who always got shit on by the moron press (and fans) in Toronto? 45 pts in 49 games these past two playoff runs, which is above his career points per game, and would actually exceed all but two individual seasons.
Pens traded up to get the first pick (from third) to get Fleury in 2004. Don’t let that ruin your narrative though.
