The new orange underlined advertisements are awful

It makes the site seem cheap and inauthentic. Plus, they are really annoying when you accidentally scroll over them. Makes me not want to visit the site anymore.

it's sad you have to say this...
I'm ok with it...
be who you are, say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind, and those who mind don't matter

Hey Wayfarer, maybe "scroll more carefully"


Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

A little annoying, but since it benefits the site, I can live with them.  :)

If enough guys clicked the DONATE button in the upper left corner and tossed in some sheckles, the sight might not need so many ads.

An ad referral kicks back a SMALL amount to SBG.  A donation goes directly to SBG and they get the full amount. Goes a lot further. Instead of spending $25 on product and thus donating $2 (or whatever the amount is), donate $10. Skip the product you don't really need, and the site gets a lot more benefit.

Besides, I don't see an orange ad. Perhaps my content filter is blocking it? What product is it advertising?

My user name (the Razor part) is underlined when I access the site on my Kindle Fire but not on my PC. Something ti do with browser settings, perhaps?
