Digital news websites that stop you from viewing content if you’re using an adblocker
“We see that you’re using an ad blocker”
Yes that’s right. I’m sick of feeling like I just got into a lift on the 1st floor going up to the 28th and someone just farted as I got in and I have to endure their stench for the 27 floors.
I usually don’t bother with them after that and they can right royally go and fist themselves wearing a pair of “Hulk Hands”.
If any folks want to get around it by the way:

I always use at least 3.
As a special Fuck Off to ads.
Any and all bossy Karen type websites can simply get fucked.

If I wander onto a site that refuses to let me view the content without turning off my 2 ad blockers then I simply leave. I have no idea what they hope to gain by alienating any potential viewers but they don’t seem to understand that the reason I have ad blockers is that I don’t want to watch any adverts, the name sort of gives it away.

Fist themselves with hulk hands? Royal arse kisser and notorious bum bandit paul Burrell would love a pair of those! I smell bandit.. morning all

“Fist themselves with Hulk hands”? I think Rylan may already practice this judging by his splayed gait and perpetual toothy grin on that Cinch TV ad.
Great nom, yes those fucking adblocker flash messages get royally on my tits.

The Daily Mailicious is virtually unreadable due to the amount of ads…luckily I still have The Guardian available to get my balanced point on current events….I.of course,make a regularly make a contribution to help pay for it’s fair and unbiased reporting.
Frankly Harold, I’m rather appalled at your cavalier attitude towards contributing by merely watching a few ads…besides,how will you know that there are “15 bored housewives looking for naughty fun in your neighbourhood” if you block the ads?

Perfect analogy Harold, pop ups are just like having to endure a rancourous cheesy cabbage egg bomb and have the opposite effect by discouraging me from ever purchasing productsor services offered.

The cookie permissions really piss me off, I’d prefer it to have stayed the way it was and simply put the fucking thing on my device. I clear all cookies regularly anyway so it was never a problem. I refuse to open an account for what I know will be a single transaction and look elsewhere. Lost revenue for cunts.

Oops, wrong place, should be a reply to Cuntybollocks below. What a twat I am this morning, obvious aftereffects of half a bottle of Woods rum last night.

Fuck me, I got that wrong as well! It should be a reply to mikdys much further down!

So that’s the other half done too!

Even worse are the ones that don’t pick up you disabling your blocker and want you to delete the fucker, or follow a complicated set of their own instructions in order to view their hallowed material.
Since then, if I see the ‘We see you’re using an adblocker’ I simply go to a different site immediately, with a view to never going to the cheeky cunts’ site again.

And YouTube are cunts with their forced ads an all. It means I now have to use Jdownloader to download cricket matches on there (some very recent full tests and ODIs are on YouTube).
These are 8 hour+ videos and take up a lot of memory and take a while to download. You can’t stream on the site you get ads every 5 minutes (and I watch through the TV and need to get up and click the adverts off after they finish sometimes). If I download the game or day’s play though, there are no ads.
Just s bit of a cunt that you can’t use the site itself though. I’ve tried some YouTube ad blockers, but some ads get through or they stop working after a few days.
YouTube has been fucking shit since that greedy woke bitch took over. Any channels to the right of Owen Jones are banned without being given a reason nowadays and it’s full of shitty ads.
The bitch in charge is even going to ban the ‘downvote’ option, so it’ll be the final nail in the coffin for democracy over there. Leftist shitebags will only have their 50 upvotes showing and not the 259,000 downvotes .
That woman is a cunt! Ruined a great channel.

The first few Tests from India on Ch4 were mercifully free of ads at 4am and what an old school pleasure that was, especially when Sir Jimmy cleaned up the cream of their batsmen in ‘an over from the gods’. Not that I actually got up at 4 but thanks to the DVD Fast Forward I usually worked through the day’s play by lunchtime. Cutting out all the punditry dross and drinks breaks etc I got the Over Rate up to 20+.
PS Graham Swann is a complete imbecile and fully merits a Nom all of his own, which I promise to draft later this summer. With another about The Hundred to follow.

Ok I give up editing my post. It keeps fucking off (doesn’t even say modded). 6 attempts – no banned words I know of or links to cause spam etc.
Gist of it being, ‘Yes, Graham Swan us not a particularly good commentator.’
Maybe this will get through?

If you’re using browser you can get a YouTube adblocker as an extension. A world without Grammarly ads is slightly more pleasant.

Great nomination 👍
These things are almost as irritating as the infernal “cookie notices” and “having to sign up for an account” when you buy one item from a supplier that you may never visit again (and resulting in avalanches of spam and physical junk mail).

Need one especially for the Lathwaite’s wine ad. That drumming…. love to punch that stupid bitches lights out.

If you understand how to do this then modify your PC now!

Somehow they know I’m about 50 so most ads that target me are for products to become young again with a raging boner and full head of hair.
Fuck right off!

I use Adblock.
And will not use any sites that insist I accept their propaganda.
