Is this add on the bottom of every thread for everyone now?  
Either they bought a ton of advertising space/time with google, or it’s something on my comptuer, I just want to make sure everyone else is getting as well.

I can’t see it on the bottom of this thread, but I’ve seen it in others.

It’s not on mine now but last night when all the hamsters except the ones responsible for posting thread titles fell into a coma, I got that one every time. Did Underbelly have anything to do with that?

The hamsters being in a coma, that is.

Thanks to all those who helped revive them, by the way.

Firefox alone won’t stop Google ads. You need an extension such as Adblock.
