I’m sure it’s no longer cool to grouse about the Google Ad stuff at the bottom of the page, but I’m wondering what counter the SDMB kicked off with all the sex related threads so the default ad is “_ **Addicted to online Porn?** _”.

And just who decided that all addictions were bad? hmmmm?

I was going to make a joke that Google might have us confused with [straightdick.com](http://straightdick.com) but then I found out that really is a site and probably not one I was to have traces of on my computer. Off to format my hard drive…

Wow. I was just about to comment on this when it came up, for some strange reason, in the Implausable Movies thread. What an obnoxious site. I’m sick of the “porn addiction” thing. I’m sure there are some people who are addicted. Like people are addicted to the home shopping network, or chapstick, or pretty much anything. But of course porn addiction is worse because porn is BAD :rolleyes: .

Furthermore I resent the implication on that site that porn addiction is a male thing…I can be just as addicted to porn as any man, damnnit!!!

So, why are the ads on this thread all about chicken recipes?

I’ve already gone to complain to Google about it. At home, I use Firefox and can block the ads, but at work I surf using IE and can’t really do much except ignore them. And even though I’m allowed to use the computer for personal stuff when I’m on break, I’d feel a bit funny having someone walking behind me and reading

**ADDICTED TO PORN???**

across the bottom of the page I’m on.

Doesn’t that go against the Google ad rules somehow?  
Can the Reader screen what ads are to be allowed on the site?

I also have to ask…“Make your mother proud”???

Son: “I’ve stopped jerking off to pictures of naked women”

Mom: “Oh what a wonderful son you are”

WTF

[With apologies to Robert Palmer]  
Your lights are on, but you’re not home  
Your will is not your own  
You’re heart sweats, your teeth grind  
Another site and you’re all mine.  
Whoa, you like to think that you’re immune to the stuff, oh yeah  
It’s closer to the truth to say you can’t get enough  
You know you’re gonna have to face it, you’re addicted to porn.

Addicted to porn? Finding the right amount of porn is like…trying to find the right amount of air. You can’t have too much air, dammit.

Well, right now I’m getting this one:

**We Found Your SS# Online**  
You’ll never guess who put it there. We’ll give you their number.

Hmm. Phone number, or SSN? An eye for an eye? Goofy.  
I did see those Porn Addiction Ads earlier. I thought “they” had found me and were coming for me.

Just for me. No credit card needed!
