Vague "Click Here to Continue" ads that take me to a virus warning page that freezes my browser.

OK, the malicious ad links are still happening. I'm going to make a thread in QS&F about it.

I used to like Etsy back when they were actually focused on handcrafted and vintage goods, before all the commercial sellers with mass-produced AI slop "art" prints and such.

Only one? They should at least give you a selection.
This:

I don't know what it is, I don't intend to find out, and I haven't needed one in over 68 years, so I still don't need it.
And this:

I'm not going to Oregon this weekend.

LOL. They do give me options, sometimes it's a different car. And I think that thing is a multi-tool with binoculars???

I see. That way, you can poke your eye out with a multi-tool when trying to look through the binoculars at the air show planes. So, less useful than a car for someone who hasn't started driving yet.

And this:

Wow, are those the Snowbirds? I didn't realize they performed outside of the country, cool. I've seen them a few times, when they've performed at our local airshow. (I don't even *go* to the airshows, I just live near the airport! )

It's getting ridiculous. I don't think I've been advertised anything but cars by the TBBS in weeks!

...Of course, now that I say that, I'm being advertised largely unremarkable Temu dresses.
