Zoo-Sized Pet Peeve

You know, I really hate when advertisements in online papers require an additional download to view. For example, in the stories today on StL Today, the online arm (complete with swinging arm flab) of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, an in-article advertisement needs a plug in and instead of displaying with all its clock-cycle-grabbing beauty, overlays the actual text in the story.

Here's a quick word to you online marketing types: I am not going to download a plugin to see advertising. What were you thinking? Pinheads.
