Space Porn: WAAAY better than Bug OR Spider porn.

[Euld]

Well I did spend all those years being Christian, and now I've been out of the closet for a year or so.  Still a bit lonely, but quite happier for sure.

Interestingly enough, there is a book titled The Gay Science that would be amusing to see on my Facebook adverts.

[Mr Space Cat]

This is why one must carefully manage their google searches such that the greatest volume are always in an area which makes for unobtrusive ads.


Or just use Adblock, yeah.

Or you could search for sciencey stuff. About like, black holes. Higgs boson. Etc. See what the adtrackers come back with then.

"Searching for Christian black holes to explore? Come to Christianmingle.com for a holy good time!"

Eww.
 
I was expecting space-porn jokes though.

"Oh yeah, black hole, suck that matter. Suck it hard baby." --ok, I can't even continue that line of thought. I need to go get some brain bleach and then install Adblock on my brain.

On Adblock, though. I can't imagine internet surfing without it. I see people at my high school browsing the web without it and cringe at the sheer insultingly obtrusiveness of most ads now. all those websites with free lyrics of songs for example, or those cruddy websites with cheap cruddy free flash games to waste time. Without adblock 80% of those pages are ads, ads ads! Youtube apparently has ads on, not only google partners' videos, but on videos from free users. Also, ads in the middle of the video, or so I've heard.

I get enough advertising from TV, thank you very much, internet.

[Guardian G.I.]

YouTube ads can be removed by browser plugins, IIRC.

[Descan]

Like AdBlock!

Surprising, I know. But as it happens, we were just talking about it!

Small world, isn't it?

I find it funny how much money they're wasting. Personally myself I've never seen a TV advert since... Well, I actually don't know. Nor do I remember the last advert I've seen on the intertubz. The only adverts I do seem to recall have been those M&S postcards that look suspiciously like soft pornography, that they plastered on every single London bus. NUTHIN TO SEE HERE
EXCEPT THE POSTCARDS
Because now every time I buy a loaf of bread, the instinctive reaction is 'boobs.'

[mcclay]

Watching the 11 drunk guys play... series,soooooo funny and strange.

[dei]

My generosity towards my roommates at the cost of disadvantaging myself financially kind of makes me go "What the fuck?" in a good way. Just in the past forty-eight hours I gave away two energy drinks, split a pizza, and taught someone how to properly cook something in an electric oven without burning it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The secret is that many electric ovens are about fifty degrees hotter than a gas oven so you've got to lower the temperature by about that much to avoid burning whatever you're cooking.

Which reminds me...

Washing your clothing inside out, especially jeans, helps them last longer. Washing them in cold water also helps reduce the wear on the fabric.

...I might make a good homemaker someday.

[Lord Shonus]

The second tip comes with a caveat. You must use hot or at least warm water at least once a month, or the laundry will gain a musty smell over time.

[Aklyon]

Why does it get the smell?

[Lord Shonus]

In my experience, cold water doesn't remove everything. It does a perfectly servicable job for day-to-day washing, but bits of sweat and oils stay in the laundry. Over time, this builds up and causes a bad smell that cold water won't entirely remove. Using hot or warm water every so often clears that up. Possibly a regional thing, tied to temperature and humidity.
