Agreed - and it's not just WSO - I've seen that fucking ad all over the internet. They must have bought up a big block with whatever ad network Patrick's using...

Haha oddly enough, now that the offending ad is blocked, another (not gross) weight loss ad is showing up in its place. Someone must think bankers need to lose weight...

Patrick,

I realize I'm in a vast minority of WSO users in France (probably just me and Gini), but there is an ad for VOICI that makes WSO non-functional when it comes up. As in, you can't click anywhere else on the page except the ad. It really sucks. If you could block that one, I'd be forever in your debt.

That fat chick ad was TERRIBLE! So glad you got rid of it!

maybe I'm in the wrong business because apparently these acai berry sellers have enough money to place ads everywhere I go on the internet.
