I wish I could remember what I wanted to rant about... it was my A material, but since I forget, I'll have to move onto some B material. Firefox is great, and when it was started up, I didn't get any popups. But now, those bastards at the popup agencies have found a way around it and now I get more popups now. Not as much an Internet Explorer, God no, but still, they're getting through. Let me ask this, what idiot had the idea, "Hey, let's throw ads at people when they're trying to do important work. Maybe if we attack them when they least expect it, they'll visit what we want them to and give that company money!" I bet out of every 100,000 people that see an ad, approximately 100 people click it, 10 people stay on it for more than 14 seconds, and about 0 people put any money into it. Then there are those banner ads for True, which always shows some half naked woman sitting there, pleading for you to visit the site. Of the amount of women that participate in that site, I bet about 0.01% are ones who look like the people in the ads. If there are women like that, they don't need to use an online dating service, so if you're planning to meet someone hot online (through a dating service), throw away your hopes right now.

Anybody who watches TV after 10:00 has seen commercials for those phone services, the main one being Live Links. After that came up, about 8 copycats emerged. You can measure how long another phone service came out by how late it comes on. Live Links you usually see at 10:00, that was the first one. As you stay up later, you see more and more, until you get so late that you see really weird ones. Personally, I HATE these commercials. First of all, it's false advertising, it's very possible no women at all are using that service, unless they are paid to do it, and if there are women who are willingly calling that number, trust me, they ain't pretty. But that's not the reason I really hate them. A lot of times when I'm watching TV and my parent(s) are in the room or watching with me. Then, one of the commercials come on, and I have to endure 37 seconds of pure awkwardness. I hate awkwardness, it's the third worst feeling in the world, the first being pain, the second being embarassement. Well, awkwardness is kind of a combination of pain and embarassement, really. That's why I hate them, and I hope they fail. But they never will, because there will always be men calling those numbers, even the ones going at around 2:00.
