My Pet Hate Again.

Something I’m curious about:

You know all those ads which proliferate on the internet like pustules on a leper? Does anybody ever actually click on them? (And isn’t the invitation to ‘Go to advertiser’s site’ just the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever read? Who the hell would want to?) Surely, we all go straight to the little cross and close the damn thing, don’t we? Please tell me we do.

I remember back when I was a naïve new user of a pc, I would sometimes click on the cross and discover that all it did was take me to the full ad. That is so dishonest, but at least I learned something about life and the human condition from it.
