i think we need Cracked-style articles back. desperately. or like, a guy doing a weird thing and writing a piece on it. sites like those are declining faster than the glaciers.
If there were adverts, they were single still images that you could scroll past and forget.
I keep seeing this sentiment. Am I the only person who remembers pop up ads? Was that a fever dream? I remember those being all over the place in the late 90s and early aughts. All with geocities style colors.
