I'm a patient woman, really I am!

But I've had ENUFFFFF of The Shocking Meat Video ad(still pic) that looks like a giant penis being hacked away at!
My God, we GET IT!!! I don't know what ...IT...is, and I don't want to know...

Please, I'd almost be willing to donate to the cause if it will just go away!!!!

Or...have I just become rubber room ready???

Isn't the world bad enough without these constant visuals??

Okay, take a deep breath! And go to the happy place....

(a place that doesn't involve these mutilated meat shafts!!!)



A R G H!!!!

1. What you said.

It certainly doesn't make me want to click on the link. Nor does it make me want to be a vegetarian.

It looks like a leg or an arm to me though. Not what you said!

2. I thought the same.....

as you did, kimmer....
and being very sensitive to what I see...I find it shocking each time it appears.

I detest that ad....and I hope it leaves soon.

3. IT IS DISGUSTING, REMOVE IT

See what you started!? :smoke:

7. Heh!

Well, what can I say???:evilgrin: ;)

4. I agree -- it's a really annoying ad

But then most of the ads on the site are horribly annoying if not supporting right-wing causes and candidates.

...though the evil cannibal in me thinks that particular cut of meat in the ad would make an excellent dinner. >.>;

5. mee too!

I have to cover my computer or scroll past it on the latest page cuz i am afraid my kids are gonna see that, ewww!

It doesn't make me think any better about not being a vegetarian, either...my diet is what it is...

6. Lots of discussion in it in GD

This one doesn't bother me as much as the one about the animal farms that was shown there a while back. I had to shield my eyes every time I looked at it. Apparently there's AD BLOCK you can use in Firefox or something but yeah, lots of peeps complaining.

I'll check in on the Mod board to see what's up with it. Also, as I recall, lots of discussion over on Ask the Mods threads somewhere.

I hate ads like that, I really do. I'm with you, Kimmers.

8. Today there's 2 of those adds on DU's main page.

It's now hard to miss it--so strange to see after we have complained, as if someone is enjoying it. Don't like.

9. I just hunted down

the ad blocker in Camino (Mac version of Firefox). Aaaaahhh blessed relief. (Although I still say "Shocking Meat Video" would be a great name for a band.)

Bonus: Now E! Online loads much, much faster--they were so laden down with ads it took forever to get to their site, even with broadband.

10. I try to just block it out - some days that works better than others

It is truly icky.
