EBAY, PAYPAL ... part of the naggy, naggy, NAGGY INTERNET

Why is it that the Internet is more annoying than your parents?

It's not good ENOUGH that you visit some website, one out of a MILLION?

The website should be flattered.

Instead, the website "helpfully" starts flashing shit at you. Like a parent.

It might as well be, "Are you wearing your galoshes?" "Are you having REAL food for dinner or some junk food?" "Have you added money to your I.R.A. account recently?"

EBAY.

They aren't content that you actually decided to try and find a used book or a record or a piece of clothing on their site. They have to instantly blast you with a revolving Carousel of Greed.

Didn't see anything?

Don't worry, this is a CAROUSEL, and it keeps going and going.

SPLASH. FLASH. SPLASH. You keep getting a NEW set of moronic ads shoved in your face.

Their twisted half-sister Paypal?

Go to THEIR website, and they're gonna stop you from checking your account.

They always have some reason to pester you first with a flash ad:

Yes, PAYPAL, I Photoshopped your ad, just to be HELPFUL.
