Adsense misfired shortly after going live. (screenshot)
This site has officially sold out. To whom? To the man, of course. The Google ads you see on the side of the screen are only the beginning. Coming soon: Pop-ups, pop-unders, pop-overs, pop-all-over-the-places, interstitials, eyeblasters, shoshkeles, and overlays. Also: Lots and lots of suspicious posts with content like: "Hey, have you guys ever tried a cool, refreshing Cockta? When I want to be refreshed, I only refresh myself with Cockta! It’s refreshing!" I suppose this is bad news for everyone who hates ads, but good news for everyone who loves cheap viagra and meeting hot authentic Slovenian women. (Thanks ill-advised!)
Jokes aside: I will try to keep things under control. If the ads bug you, I strongly suggest getting Firefox, which will let you block them out entirely. Otherwise, the ads will help send a little coffee-money to me and the goons who designed the site. Which is nice.

but does ill-advised have any hot Serbian sluts??? seriously,
I already have Firefox. I just use the pop-ups to practice my
maledictions and imprecations. I’m getting better all the time they
tell me.
make sure the Man gives you all your money, btw alien melons are gooney if not goons!
If it proves to be too little, I can always sell everyone’s e-mail addresses to spam harvesters. Mmmmm… classy!
FUCK the corporate world! Tito is rolling over in his grave thanks to you! What kind of hippy are you, c’mon!
I’m not even sure I would have noticed the ads if you hadn’t drawn my attention to them. Which makes me wonder: aren’t you going to do any subliminal advertising? I think that would be cool. Now I’ve got go. I’m feeling very thirsty. Perhaps a cola-like drink flavored with rosehips would hit the spot. Yeah, that’s what I want.
well, you did my computer’s IE a favor. thanks to you, i ran it once again, for the first time in about half a year, just to see this new development. anyway, unless some of those annoying java pop-ups start popping up, i don’t really care.
sgazzetti: A cool, crisp drink is always a smart idea. Especially if you’re thirsty.somebody: Java pop-ups are a great idea, thanks! But seriously, though, we may add some amazon ads on the other side, to restore balance to the page — and the force. We’ll see.
The afforementioned ‘refreshing’ drink is perhaps one of the most vile I have ever had the misfortune to taste. [Surpassed in evil carbonated flavouring only by our unmentionable diet orange concoction, banned in the US, that tastes much like how I imagine paint stripper would.] {Fructal though, mhm. Advertise away.}As for the ads in general, I too use firefox and could block them when not confined in this place, although in all likelihood would have failed to notice them for some time if you had not posted this. [Such are my powers of observation.]
Hey I’m happy. As long as no IE searchbars get secretly installed on my comp everytime I load your site. Or set McDonald’s Slovenija as my default home page. Seriously, Cockta really is the most refreshing drink of them all. *winks at Kolinska*I have to say though: I know those authentic Slovenian women are for illustrative purpuses only, but wouldn’t it be just grand if that asiankitten really was from Jarse, Slovenia?
Capitalize or be capitalized!
Mmm Cockta!! I don’t know how anybody can dislike that refreshing drink. It’s my favorite soda beverage. (Oh and I love fructal too!) Although during my vacation in Slovenia last summer, I was disturbed to find that cockta has come out with a brand new flavor, (cockta light) YUCK! It’s packaging is also suspiciously similar to the regular cockta. So if you don’t look closely enough you’ll pick up the wrong one. It may be some kind of cockta conspiracy
to slowly ween us off cockta with real sugar!!
Well, I back Michael M. on this one. Besides, he was not so greedy as to put the adsense script in the page with comments displayed.
pengovsky: Just wait!
but does ill-advised have any hot Serbian sluts???
Sanja svinja o kukuruzu :)))
Michael,….just as long as that grazing sheep in the fields
in your banner doesn’t start going around with stickers on its fur,
life will be o.k.. Do you plan on any commercial relaetd flags to
be flying about the towers?
"There are no commercials on my site" said MM for the radio interview just shy of two months ago. And here we are. Oh how the tables have turned! Seriously, what`s next? Subscription money? And if you look without paying the goons will get me and break my legs?
I don’t know if this is a sick joke of some kind, Michael, but there’s a Google add on your page that advertizes a CD of "Songs&Dances from Slovakia."
Congratulations for the bravery, Michael :)…Seriously,
sometimes one shall make a decision whether s/he want some money to
come back from his/her efforts put into a blog. Well, Michael you have
put enough into it apparently. It’s not an easy decision - I still shy to say a real yes or no! But hey there is nothing against
it. Only it is not so easy to cope with the image of the audience. I
suppose as long as it stays non-intrusive (eg. save pop ups and else)
there is no problem. Don’t let yourself be flipped, we are here on Earth in our flesh to master the matter!Good luck,
