Terrifying Advert
« on: August 06, 2010, 06:55:55 am »

I wouldn't know.
I have this thing called Adblock.
I never see any of those.

The adverts are essentially a formality. The demon is already here.

One of the cameras we sell where I work has a big α on the box. My first reaction to it was "Oh god, CARP!"
