YES!!!  very annoying and mine started just a few days ago.  I don't mind the little ones on the bottom left hand part of the screen - and it just moved down and covered what I was typing.  I too have tried to figure out how to get rid of it, but can't.  My ad is for high-speed internet... ????  I've also noticed that it seems to be more so when I'm replying to a post, not just reading.

I think I figured it out!!

I do believe it is a Google thing, not an OH thing.  Go to the top of your screen - and on the right hand side is in the blue OH bar is something that says "Ad Choices".  Click on it.  Read the screen and click on "Ad Preferences Manager".  Then the next screen you can "Opt-Out".  You'll need to download the Google opt-out software so the opting-out stays permanent, then you need to reboot. 

I'm going to see if it continues to work!!  So far in my reply, I'm 3"x3" ad free!!

Personally I think it's on OH to block out Denises giant head.


(I've been holding that one for 2 days I was ready to burst)

No you di'int!!! That's it! You are going to need a support group for guys that get their asses handed to them in a public forum by giant-headed girls, in addition to an "I don't have an original thought so I have to steal your idea about starting a support group so I seem witty on other threads" group! Oh yeah, you've rattled the hornet's nest now buddy! My motto: Don't bring it I'd you don't want it brought back, and you, my friend, just brought it! I was already pissed about you holding out on the honey peanut butter details and making me waste 5 bucks on second rate honey PB, but now you've really gone and done it!!!!



Expect it when you least expect it.



BWAHHAHAHAHA (wrings hands menacingly!!)

Edited to add: I see you edited your original note. I'd think that having time to rethink it you'd have thought better of commenting on my cranial girth, but alas that was not to be the case. Big mistake!!!

Pour some more gasoline on the fire it's gettin cold round these here parts. I knew this one might get me in a little trouble BBBBBZZZZZZZZ.
 
Before after all of this is said and done, I already signed the book deal and a movie is the works. I just have to figureout who is going to play your part in the movie. I have it narrowed down to 2 or 3 actresses if you want to now who they are.

For the record, I had to go back and check on page 10. Thread two down two to go, I did say freshly ground honey peanut butter. Sorry if you bought some from a container, it's no particular brand just something you grind  up yourself. Now I will have to send you popcorn and Honey PB your getting expensive and all I get is insults.

Despicable Me trying to make poor Lizzie's day a little brighter and you want to bring what was never broughten in the first place. (Think bring it on without cheerleaders) I do like Gabriel Union she's from Omaha (On a side note you said you like Bradley Cooper, the actor or Bradley Cooper 360?

I'll just keep my head on a swivel that is if I don't doze off waiting for what it is I'm waiting ZZZZZZZZZ

I'm actually enjoying a nice Capital One Bank ad right here on the left side of my computer. Fortunately,  I was still able to see my beautiful face despite its presence.  I'll be watching the Washington Capitals in about a 1/2 hour.

So it appears I've hit a nerve. Good. The voodoo doll is working. You are not despicalble, just short on material. Poor Lizzie--she needs all the laughs she can get right now. That was really scary for her! She has a great attitude. Sadly I can't say the same for some people. I can't fault you for trying to immitate the best, but it was fun to slam you for it!! I can't wait to hear who you've got waiting to play me in the movie. I'm coming up at a loss for giant-headed actresses, although Star Jones has a inordinately large head compared to her body.

So I missed the freshly ground PB reference. My bad. Still gonna cost you a vat of that and a trough of cheesy popcorn!

I think broughten is my new favorite word. Awww crap. Trying to pretend to be mad at you is too hard. Just get me my popcorn and no one gets hurt! 

I was watching a show yesterday about how much real estate you can get for 350K in different areas of the country. They showcased Omaha, Nebraska. There was a very cool, contemporary house with tons of square footage for 329K. That much money here would buy you a shoe box with a dented lid. It sucks living in such an expensive area. On the topic of money and IPO's--did you see Groupon launched today? I have a Groupon addiction. It's bad. I need a 12-step-program. My brother-in-law was going to buy 200K worth and it went up like 35% (50% at one point I heard). Guessing he had a pretty nice pay day. Do you play in the stock market? I'll tell you all about my Wall Street prowess when the time is right. Much like the rock is right. Damn, old and big headed. I think I need more surgery. Sigh...
