Like most advertising on most sites I go to I ignore it... It is necessary and some people must actually click one of those banners from time to time otherwise the advertisers would not spend their money supporting the site. A more interesting question is "who ARE these people" and what did they actually buy from the site linked to the banner?
On my morbid site, for example, I did a test of Google Ads and because I mention so many different things in my Morbid Fact Du Jour newsletter, I found that it would bring up things that had nothing to do with morbidity - but had to do with items mentioned in the postings.
You are not alone re: the Poly dude!
I like Morrissey's getup but I think he needs a belt I must say he looks very fit and trim here.
Oh my gudniz, I have a pair of trousers just like this - with the pleats and everything
That's your site?!? I've known about that for years, but I must confess to reading it only occasionally.
/whoops--that's 1000. I promised to stop at 999. Damn!
It's interesting that the sleek look he had during the Maladjusted tour was so at odds with the scruffy photo on the album cover (possibly the worst publicity shot of Moz ever taken).
What is truly unfortunate is that the rear sleeve photo from the LP version was not used as the front cover. Morrissey still looks somewhat disheveled and unshaven, but he had a smoldering look of defiance on his face that fit the title quite well.
I actually liked the attempt to remove himself from the quiff image, like he refused to be caricatured any longer. I can recall being very shocked when he went on David Letterman, which was the first American appearance with the short 'do. I think he gave up on it too soon.
Cheers,
Jamie
