:eek: Thanks. My bowels are a little quivery from that. I saw, “stretching the skin from the shaft of the penis over the head of the penis” before I read the part about it taking 42 months. Still, yikes! ---

Again with the pronouns? 😛 If you’re talking about the SDMB, we’ve notified them. They told us [The Reader has no editorial control over what Google displays as ads](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=7697105&postcount=5). Unless the SDMB has some special set up with Google Adsense that no one else seems to have, that’s incorrect. I’m just speaking from my own experience, of course. I have no first-hand knowledge of how this place is run. If you’re talking about Google, there’s no point reporting most of the “offensive” ads to them, as they’re not technically offensive. Insulting to our intelligence and against the supposed mission of the SDMB, yes, but not offensive as far as Google is concerned. ---
