Hmmm, where previously there would be one "Continue to The Onion »" advert on first entering the site, I'm now having to click through this on every link to a text article. I understand they need to advertise, but this really annoying. (AV Club is affected by this too).

I clicked the last 5 links above here and did not see this - I'm using Firefox & Adblock Plus
― StanM, Thursday, 9 September 2010 13:57 (fifteen years ago)
Yeah - it's ok again on mine too (Firefox, no Adblock though). Must have been a glitch - every ad was for the Onion Store, and whilst I love the "chocaholic but for booze" t-shirts it was a little grating.

ok lol
i started to read that in the paper version the other day and stopped about a third into it because i was like "i get it, cyclists are gear dweebs who believe in special socks" and figured it would do the usual "onion spends a lot of column inches on a joke that works better as a headline" thing

e.g. we did a cover with the headline "The Reform Party's Quadruple Threat" with pictures of Ross Perot, Pat Buchanan, Jesse The Body Ventura and Balki Bartokamous (I mean it was Bronson Pinchot, but the names read "Perot // Buchanan // Ventura // Bartokamous"
