  1. Me says:

    I have NO clue what this means. I guess I’ll just wait for other people to post and just make fun of them.

  2. Stardrake says:

    AdBlock Plus.

    It’s Firefox’s friend.

    And yours.

  3. ANGRY says:

    Dame you! You spoiled it for me! Now all i see is a half naked transvestite where the half naked girl use to be…

  4. Ali says:

    haha! i totally agree, its getting a bit ridiculous, especially the advert when its just a bra

  5. Infelice says:

    Haha, class…apart from now there is some scary pirate chick with zombie eyes XD

  6. aaron m says:

    Hmmm I’m gonna start a new spam! What ads r on the side of your screen! mine are: kitty food!, verizon, some scam, another scam, one more scam, and another IQ test!

    • Rohvannyn says:

      And the IQ test is a scam, because if you get the results you sign up for a premium text message that will cost you $9.99 per month on your phone bill unless you reply with the word “stop.” I work for Verizon…. I hear about them all the time.

      Why is Evony a scam, and why do people say the person in the ad is a transvestite?

      • lettertjes says:

        you don’t suppose they would say that because there’s a person with a firm chin, a large nose, a high forehead and low eyebrows, dressed as a woman?

      • EHW says:

        whats a transvestite???

        • Rohvannyn says:

          EHW, a transvestite is a man who dresses in women’s clothing.

          Definitely not to be confused with a transgendered person, who has the body of one gender but is born with the brain structure of the other gender, and undergoes various medical procedures to be restored to the gender they feel they should be.

          • bentheimmigrant says:

            “brain structure”??? Science fail.

            Genders are decided by more than brain and physical structures. Go look at genetics on wikipedia or something.

            • Pencilsharpener says:

              They have conditioned Rohvannyn to be exceptionally “understanding.” Now if someone had only conditioned them as strongly…

  7. that guy says:

    not better than the german-id ads,this laughing skull drives me mad,just glad they fixed that goddamn thing

    • blubb says:

      Yes, I hate that thing too! Now as it’s gone here, it’s all over YouTube, which is even worse when watching videos with low volume…

  8. with_Apostrophe says:

    Those Evony ones drive me mad! They seem to be everywhere on this site. Of course, to prove me wrong it’s been replaced by erepublik right now.

    • Trelior says:

      The Evony ads are EVERYWHERE, not just here… I can’t go anywhere on the internet without seeing at least 3 different ad banners for that site.

  9. bookenout says:

    ZOMG… THANK YOU!! I was looking for that advertisement because I couldn’t remember the name and I wanted to play it. I couldn’t find the ad anywhere then I gave up and started my daily lol’s. Next thing I know I’m rofling all over the place because of this gigantic coincidence. =)

  10. Sunshiner says:

    I’ve discovered really cool sites via the ads for cute vintage clothes! For that I thank this site. It’s very odd for me to actually click on a sidebar advertisement, but I’m glad I did. (Plasticland, ShanaLogic, and ModCloth are awesome!)

    The Evony ads are ridiculous, though. These “half-naked transvestites (ha!)” do not appeal to me.

    • Poptart says:

      Yeah, I <3 ShanaLogic! I gat me some really cute earrings from that place.

      I was watching a video with my friend, and there was a Evony ad next to it…. We had to cover it up with a sticky note 'cuz it was, well… yeah. -_- '

  11. Askalton says:

    AdBlock Plus FTW!

  12. Kelly says:

    right next to this is an ad for some anime looking game.

  13. Linds says:

    You forgot the guy from Dirty Jobs hocking some ugly little Ford car in an annoying drop-down ad that covers up the top nav menu. Thing drives me nuts…

  14. Infelice says:

    I did once see one here that was for a fat gay man dating site….never lol’d so much in my life. Unfortunately never got the screenshot ;o(

  15. Gliiidter says:

    Hahahah…. best GraphJam yet….

  16. Igor the Vigorous says:

    I tried that game…. It was way too basic- wouldn’t even get a positive response from me despite the fact that it’s FREE.

  17. Daedalus says:

    What? I have no idea what ad you mean. Never seen anything about Evony or whatever.
    It also just doesn’t make sense, the ads are quite regional, I see mainly Dutch ads because I’m in The Netherlands. So yeah, I’m looking at a swine flu ad right now (or some ripoff to test how vulnerable you are), is that the one you mean?

  18. helmut says:

    haha i ignored that evony ad for them starting it being douches.

  19. gwyn says:

    I play evony all the time, love it. the ads are stupid though, they have nothing to do with the game at all!

  20. Matty says:

    Ye, those ads annoy me

    And that new OXO ad >:(

  21. procrastinating says:

    This literally made me laugh aloud for a bit..nice x]

  22. Pants says:

    it’s…so….TRUE D8 THAT “CHICK” SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME

  23. John says:

    You forgot “Obama asks mom to return to school” with WTF picture.

  24. pimmydis says:

    i guess i am stupid because i just signed up for there site today. I was a “Civilization” junkie years ago and a free online rip-off sounds appealing. I am not stupid enough to give away a dime to scamming gold-farmers or even an e-mail address that isn’t already overrun with spam but I think there is harmless fun to be had in their game.

    • Igor the Vigorous says:

      Pimmy, you know that UMGC (the creators of evony) is a well-known company and that their owner also owns gold-farming companies, and that they’re being sued by Google and Microsoft for click-spamming and email spam?

    • McFreddie says:

      Civilization pwns. Just sayin’.

  25. forge says:

    Forgot “cute little female zygote in microscopic shorts advertising some t-shirt site and she doesn’t actually appear on the site”

  26. Kendra says:

    The thing is..is the game is nothing like the adds..You build a town and build up resources to make an army.The add’s are freakin retarded.Just to try and get men to play it.Of course that’s bait and switch cause the guys that play it to see those women are getting hosed lol If it had not been for a friend telling me about it i never would have started playing and there is no way im spending even a penny on that game.

    • Luc says:

      The game is free so you wouldn’t spend a penny on it. I signed up to it because a friend of mine recommended it. Beforehand I had ignored it due to the ads. Happy to say that the ads have absolutely no connection to the game at all. I’m guessing that they just use those pics to lure in the men.

  27. Roflsneezia says:

    yes.

  28. RB says:

    I’m pretty annoyed with the boob ads on this site too. Glad someone found a way to rip on it!

  29. Nikki says:

    Thanks for the info on Adblock!
    Also, best graph ever…. perfect!

  30. varta says:

    Damn! I am not able to understand this graph because there is no mentioning of what this shades are belong to and this makes me really sick!
    I will for other’s to comment on this.

  31. Laura says:

    Funny, this graph has been blocked by my Adblocker :D

  32. Crowbar says:

    I play evony and it rocks It’s a awesome game

  33. Yoshermon says:

    Free or not, scam or not, I wouldn’t play Evony to save my life. I don’t care if it’s rated the most awsome game in the world, I would never give in to such shameless and pitiful advertising that the creators of Evony do.

    On a different note, the creator of the graph forgot those sodding “Stay-at-home mom finds cure to yellow teeth” ads. Those are so annoying yet the only thing that keeps me from clicking on them out of sheer curiosity and annoyance is the possiblility that it might be a scam or something.

  34. Emma says:

    Urgh. I’m so tired of the Evony ads. I always get the “Mom finds cure to [yellow teeth, wrinkles, fat, etc.]! As seen on [every major network and talk show in the world]!” and the ones that really confuse me are the “Obama tells moms to go back to school” and it has a picture of somebody doing pushups or something.

    Let’s see, right now I have: Newtek Web Hosting, a Verizon ad about Blackberry’s, some t-shirt company, something called Jing, I can haz tees, and an AOL ad with some cheerful looking people on it. I have an AOL email and they make me feel everything but cheerful.

  35. BronL says:

    I _love_ you stardrake! Adblock has changed my life.

  36. Yoshermon says:

    If I remember correctly I have “won” 73,000 dollars in Walmart Gift cards and 167 iPods since I started counting a few months ago.

  37. 11bravo says:

    all i have is imvu adds and of course 2 travian adds, i looked at that site and decided that it would have to be a no go for me. My add blocker chosses when it wants to work, much like everything on my stupid laptop, but hey, its better than those little adds that pop up after seeing your browsing history, those just confuse me

  38. Bruceongames says:

    Be careful what you say about Evony, they are saueing me for telling the truth about them: http://www.bruceongames.com/2009/09/14/evony-press-release/

  39. Fish says:

    you forgot world of warcraft. I see that one ALOT.

  40. 0-0 says:

    those adds are EVERY. WHERE. all the people that would want to play that, have fallen in love with runescape. (once my friend made a runescape to stalk her geeky boyfriend) anyway. but still its stupid!

  41. rambow says:

    its called firefox. it blocks all the retarted ads. fail.

  42. Ishkabibble says:

    Is this graph true or true?

  43. f1shsticks says:

    LOL……there is an “EVONY” add to the right of me.

  44. jamesbob006 says:

    its actually a good game

  45. the random jack says:

    THIS IS SO DAMN TRUE! i look to the right guess what i see? `play now,my lord’ this person is god!

  46. evonyplayer says:

    Although I agree with this graph, I must add that Evony is a pretty fun game, even without the scantily clad women.

  47. adm says:

    Im seeing TShirt sites and eRepublik ads atm, but I take your point.

    BTW, you sure that’s a transvestite? It IS computer-generated after all…

  48. Yogi says:

    Speak of the freakin’ devil there’s one now >=(

  49. Rachie says:

    As soon as I saw this, I burst into giggles. That is completly true.

  50. Savato says:

    So true… so true… *wipes tear from eye*

  51. Rainmaker says:

    ad block saves me every time……

  52. blueskies says:

    I just ran across this website and am at a total loss at what it’s supposed to do for people. From all the comments I’ve read, it sounds like almost everyone must have little to do to given what they are posting as nothing seems to make any sense. There appears to be nothing helpful for anyone that would like help on advertising, how to write ads, etc. I would appreciate it if someone would tell me what this site is about.

    • It is supposed to be funny you moron! Even if your humor is different from that of the people who go on this site, you should at least be able to tell what it is about! and by the way, if you have been on this site for at least 5 minuets and have not lol-ed once, than I am afraid you have a horrible sense of humor. And why are YOU on this site? you are saying that people must have little to do on this site, but a least they know what site they are going to end up on! You said it yourself that you just “randomly” found this site!

  53. It’s funny how true it is! :)

  54. InconspicuousBarrel says:

    This graph is very true, the ads are just plain retarded, I hope it means that Evony is getting more and more desperate, and soon they’ll be out of business. Unfortunately, from what I’ve heard, their ad campaign is working. Even with Adblock, I can only block about half of their ads, the rest are flash animated or something.

  55. nice girl says:

    i hate those too! they are practically R-rated! I look at the ad and what do i see? ‘Save the queen! Come play my lord!’ I also hate these:
    1. Obama Encourages Moms to Go Back To Work
    they always have some sort of stupid vid on it! like a dancing silhouette or something! weird!
    2. YOU ARE THE 1,000,000th PERSON TO VISIT THIS SITE! THIS IS NOT A JOKE! PLEASE CLICK TO RECEIVE YOUR MYSTERY GIFT!!!!!!!!!!
    3. Stay at home mom finds way to whiten teeth! Don’t use bleach!
    4. I lost 10 pounds of belly fat by obeying this 1 old rule!
    All five (Evony, Dancing Woman, Millionth Person, Teeth Whitening, and Belly Fat) are super annoying!!

  56. Cougar Whacker says:

    Hooray for add-block. I don’t have to see any of those anymore.

  57. RiceCakes says:

    Dude, this made me lol really hard because its SO TRUE

  58. jiyuukage115 says:

    Evony was the ad that surrounded this graph when I clicked on it. That’s not even funny.

  59. Evergreen says:

    Its CHEEZBURGER not CHEESEBURGER!

  60. Igor the Vigorous says:

    By the way, nobody should be playing that game. The graphics and game ideas are mostly stolen from Age of Empires and Sid Meier’s well-known Civilization series. In fact, up until the release, the project was supposed to be called “Civony”. A lot of the ads they use are lifted from different lingerie magazines, they have been spamming blogs on google with MOUNTAINS full of spam, and it’s run by one of the leading barely-legal gold miners/spammer (The guy who owns the company that does these things) in World of Warcraft- and many other games

  61. JULIO LUGO!!!!!!! says:

    That’s what made me play Evony!

  62. Dr. Epic says:

    Don’t I know you from somewhere?

  63. Kitteh says:

    (first comment on this site i’ve ever done, so if it screws up and/ or blows up, i am extremely sorry) …seriously, at first, the woman actually looked like she belonged to the game, and there were like, three of those… lady with knife to throat, twins, and lady nearly exposing her titties, but looking like she belongs to the time period. i know once i saw a woman on a bed, wearing only panties, and the matress was only covering the very tips where the color changes O.o” how the hell did they go from noble looken women of the past, to your average strip club worker?

  64. Seruna Kanus says:

    I half expected some sort of mmorpg. Turns out it’s an mmorts. Tis fun to play since it doesn’t require too much attention at some point.
