I have read over those lists a bunch, its no wonder everyone is such a fat slob. Not to mention most of this drinks are sweetened with HFCS.
I read one article about the worst appetizers, Chilies spinach artichoke dip was over 1200 calories per SERVING .Usually there are around 4-6 servings in a app, so imagine if you share that with one or two friends you could easily ingest 2000+ cals and still have your main course to eat. Frankly, it's ridiculous and way out of hand.

Bleh..I refuse to read sites that are formatted like that just to feed you advertising.

Firefox + adblock, Bedlam.

Mmmmm, that ice cream looked delicious.

I read an interesting article about people using adblock...

It was something along the lines that you guys fuck websites that have no real income due to being blog sites, info, or other forum that doesnt bring in money other than you being subjected to ads. There are a bunch of those websites. Someone has to pay for bandwidth and storage.

[john]

If people get paid on an ad simply showing up vs it getting clicked on, there are plenty of people who will be seeing it. Me - I'll adblock as much as possible.

[Conrad]

People do get paid for views on an ad... They dont really think people are going to click every link they come across.

Not that I honestly care but if a big site like wiki or hell even HAI did... when you dont contribute would you still deny them income by adblocking?

I would, and I do.

Well then sites like that will go away if everyone adblocked... just sayin..
