Too much crap tries to load and now 'stinking badges' interrupting the front page from loading. Turn off scrips and java, block quantserve, doubleclick and scorecardresearch cookies, the site still crawls like crap.


It just isn't worth visiting anymore.


Does Ariana even have a clue?

1. I will not go there because of it's OTT crazy ass special effects.
Even with a decent DSL connection, it's just more shit than I want to look at or wait for.

2. The only time I ever go there...
...is when someone HERE posts something from there that looks interesting.
I'll click the link, and then go back and read things in 3 or 6 other tabs while it loads.
It really is a pain in the ass...

10. americablog.com is terrible too, too too many links and 'shares'
social networking shares are starting to piss me off. EVERYONE want YOU to share their shit with someone else to get more click throughs for advertising dollars. No way, I just stop going to these site.

9. I'm surprised it doesn't cause photosensitive seizures.
I like the content but the look and navigation is annoying.
