Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Google Chrome + Ad Block. Problem solved.
If the site is slow I'd guess you have either an slow, old computer, a fast computer infected with something or without the memory optimized or you're using a slow web browser. Firefox being the worst of the. In my experience but it's been a few years since I used it.
Once I switched to Chrome the difference was night and day.

Maybe he's on the net with a TRS80 and a 300 bps cradle Bell Laboratories 103 modulator/demodulator utilizing acoustic coupling from 1962? (I'm teasing, by the way....) Actually, we need the ads to pay for the bandwidth and infrastructure to provide these forums. The money has to come from somewhere, doesn't it?

The closest thing to an "issue" I had with the adverts is in the joke forum. I just wanted to point out the irony of two Chevys and a Hyundai on a bicycle discussion. I never looked at cars on the internet though.
