Apply for a fellowship that involves a security clearance. Can't register an account because the Terms of Service and Policy Privacy are both dead links and there is a very small part of me that thinks it's a test. I'm aware that this is insane, but here we are.

I have Adblock and I still get ads.

I turn off adblock on some websites I frequent for the express purpose of seeing ads.

Part of me is screaming at me not to ask, but I will anyway. Why?

[Lord Shonus]

Ads make sites money. Helping your favorite sites get money allows them to stay around.

Support people I like without paying them directly

Web-based entertainers who get most/all of their revenue to continue making content from ads on said content?

[Graknorke]

Oh no it's not that. I just like the ads.
The ones on the MSPA site stick out as good examples, since they go through a special service whose name currently eludes me. But more generic ads can be funny to see sometimes.

[Sirus]

I've enabled ads on the LP Archive, and that's about it. Sure as hell am not going to let Youtube pester me with 4-6 ads per video.

[Wolfhunter107]

For some reason, my Kindle doesn't get ads on YouTube. Flash ads don't work either. Maybe it's Silk not supporting flash?

[Orange Wizard]

I don't know what side of Youtube you guys are on. I rarely - if ever - see ads on my videos.

Edit: Wait, apparently I forgot to disable Adblock for Youtube on this computer. Derp.

[SealyStar]

YouTube ads... meh, when I use YouTube without Adblock I get 15-second ads before literally every video. I'd like to disable Adblock, at least for the little guys who I like, but I can't put up with the nonstop 15-second ads for products I will never buy on repeat ad nauseum.

[Neonivek]

Took me forever to find out why Black Face, even well done non-racist blackface, is racist... Since I never take things at face value.

The conclusion I came up with is that it is... Insensitive

There is almost no way to do it without being insensitive (and the few ways usually involve parody or satire.. and even those need to be handled right)

UGH! Morality is hard... >_<

I drank an entire little cup of pancake syrup at work today. No thought at all behind it. Just "Better not let this go to waste!" And then I was like "Wait, why did I do that."

What decisions have led me here?

Dang that was fratty

[penguinofhonor]

I would do that if it was good maple syrup. That stuff is precious.
