Date: 2011-12-12 12:46 pm (UTC)The thing I'm currently finding most annoying ad-wise are the ads on The Daily Show on Comedy Central; when I first started watching it there, possibly because I didn't allow the ads bit of the flash to save any data to my computer, it didn't show me any ads. Now it shows me the same two every ad break (currently Captain America and Harold and Kumar). I mute it and do other stuff, but it's rather annoying and I don't know if it'd be possible to block it with adblock without blocking the show itself.
