The "GET RIPPED" ads are embarrasing. It's one thing to have DU on your desk and someone walks by, but when there are muscle dudes all over your screen, people start asking questions.

1. Let the admins or mods know.
They have no control on ads,but they can get ones that are complained about removed.

2. If the boss walks by and complains, demand a raise so you...
can afford to donate so you won't have to look at buff dudes while you are supposed to be working.

5. Second this. Every time I see one of these threads I'm like "there are ads on the internet?"
I probably go a week without seeing one. And when I do I just add it to my filter and go about my browsing.
