How about I sue your ass for wasting my computer's resourse?!

I also have an experience where I entered a site, and then BOTH my optic disc drives ejected. THEN a popup comes up that says "if your cd tray is open it means your computer has been attacked by a virus. DOWNLOAD XXXXXXXX NOW!!!"

What jackass!

[HernetheHunter]

I just find it funny how half the pop-ups i get now are for pop-up blockers.

[PterodactylFace]

just get a pop-up blocker
no more pop-ups
problem solved

oh and woot for your 6000th post heinousdude

[Mr-Destruction]

theres been a few that have made thier way past my google blocker, i guess theyve got some new way to defeat the old blockers...time to update?

[IonBlaster]

the popup i really hate is the "If you CD rom opens up, then you probably got spyware on your computer."

One of 3 things happen...

1. My virus scanners go off and cut off my internet for fear of trojans.
2. The CD i'm listening to gets cut off, then virus scanners go off and cut off my internet for fear of trojans.
3. My cd rom isnt hooked up and my computer crashes, then when it's rebooted, my virus scanners go off and cut off my internet for fear of trojans.

Funniest add ever, was the fake Macintosh switch one, where he does almost nothing but bash the Mac.

Huh, didn't even notice that. Glad I read before replying. Thx

Is 6000 posts something to rejoice about, or is it just a meaningless milestone?

You seriously have no idea what's going on?!

Every 2000 posts, you get a secret. Sorta like the secrets you get from leveling up.

For the 6,000th post you get an edit button, which shows up on the right corner of every post you made, next to the reply buttons.

So often the ones selling the the cure have distributed the disease beforehand...

If popups were made of cheesecake...

...Well, I don't really know. But I do enjoy myself some mighty fine cheesecake. The really good kind with like the strawberries and shit on it. Yeah, that's good.

Yeah, strawberries taste very good when covered in shit.

Anyway, I had the CDROM thing happen when I had crap obstructing the drive door: The thing still works but I kinda felt like suing them for vandalism or something.

One particular TV commercial I find ridiculous is the one with the twin midgets that sell real estate. I mean c'mon...twin midgets, selling real estate. Give me a fucking break already.

[JohnnyWang]

I had a popup blocker that worked OK, exept it blocked the sign-in screen. Thats a bitch innit, I got rid of it the next day.

Yah, that one is on right now. They use to own a car dealership or something and they would dress up in bee costumes. Talk about humiliating. I thing one of them has a hot wife though.... lucky little bastard. It’s gotta be the cash.

At least it’s better than that freak Tony Robins. That guy’s head looks like a prize wining watermelon. He could probably fit a normal persons head in his mouth.

Edit button was cool, but I heard I get free nekkid pictures at 8000.

I've been getting 2 pieces of addware minimum per week. I have a firewall and an antivirus program but they still manage to get in there.

Its starting to really piss me off!

[KuroiNeko]

I just go old fashion and use the all natural anti-popup ad software. My hand. It's almost an instinct, as soon as something pops up, it's gone. Sometimes it gets annoying, but if I got a real popup blocker, I'd find some disadvantages like blocking the stuff I want (like the sign in page or a HTF episode), so I just close them with the mouse.

I think he's the prototype for Bucks Bigg in that '2 Stupid Dogs' episode where they need a quarter for the phone, so they get a dollar, and then get ten thousand dollars, and trade that in for five thousand dollars (and a gold-plated walkman), and then uh, stuff happens. And they make a phone call. (?)

[GR67]

i got this pop up once it was like blocker zilla and i clicked it and it led to more pop ups and my comp froze i was angry very angry
