new guilty pleasure: killing Facebook ads

Although I realize that by interacting with advertising is *still* providing valuable marketing data, I love describing an ad that says I can "Win an Eames chair" as pornographic. Those chairs with their suggestive modernist lines offend me, begone Eames chair.

The new Facebook, a difficult transition but not without its rewards.

That's funny. I hadn't noticed that the new Facebook has ads. Is that good or bad?

I'm gonna submit your entire blog as pornographic - you don't want to know what "flink" means in Aramaic.

Dr.Al,

The fact that you didn't notice the ads is a sign of your single-minded focus, or your absent minded nuttiness, in any case it's the result of you becoming a Dr. The important thing is not to stop 'noticing' things like traffic lights, directional indicators on roadways, and 'best before' dates on meat and dairy. But by all means ignore those ads my pointy-headed friend ;)

Steven, if you know what Flink means in Aramaic, then I can write sonnets in Hebrew ;)
