Please, please, please can someone get rid of the new mall-wort advertisements????

Black guy, a comedian I think is playing the piano to shoppers, and I'M VERY TIRED AND SICK OF THEM. They were kinda cute when I first saw them, but now, AND they're on tv. Sorry to make it sound like it's on DU.

I assume they are auto generated by Google and based what I had been looking up.

Did you go to walmart.com just before you started seeing the ads?

Block ALL ads from ALL sites.

Stupid whining from people who think that blocking ads is akin to stealing in 3...2...1...

People might not know what you're talking about if you use your own lingo and nicknames. It's confusing and there's a lot of it here as it is.
