Place to discuss anything, almost. No politics, religion, Microsoft, or anything else that I (the nazi censor) deem inappropriate.

Void Main,

Yes, they are annoying. But what made them particularly annoying for me was being curious enough to click on your link.... then realizing that I had to install the flash player plug-in... downloading and installing that... then downloading those annoying ads... all with a lousy 56K modem. Took a good half hour.

The worst part though is that they don't even sell Quiznos subs around here :)

Oh ... There was something to see, I thought this was just another Anti Flash rant? As Adblock has *.swf in it I have to unblock that and then if it requires the Macromedia junk I have to go and get that and install it. Not going to happen. So I'll just have to miss whatever was disturbing.

For those that don't have flash installed (and I don't blame them for not having it installed, it's anti-open) the two disturbing things I have linked to are the two latest Quizno's commercials with those guitar playing rat-like things with the freaky eyes and teeth. I would imagine that these are only played in the U.S. or North America so if you want to see them you will have to have flash installed unfortunately. :( Maybe we should send Quizno's a note and say if they want us to continue to give them our business they should provide the commercials in other formats. I did say they were disturbing. They happen to be disturbing in more than one way I guess. :)

Don't worry about it :) Actually there are those who claim that I am a seriously disturbed person. And how many *normal* people are up at 2AM looking at stuff like that and then posting about it :)

I used to stay up that late every night. I am having a much harder time doing that lately as I've been feeling like and old man. It's funny, when I look in the mirror lately I've been seeing an old man in it. Time to get a new mirror! :) Now I can only stay up till 2:00am 3 nights a week it seems. :)
