I've been informed that adblock plus sort of sucks now. If you're looking for one, go for UBlock Origin.

A diamond store in Canada has horrible ads with a man screaming in them. (all Canadians know who I am talking about already) I turn their ads off or switch radio stations when I hear them. If I was going to buy diamond jewellery I would go out of my way to buy from the store that is the furthest away from any of there stores even if it cost more. I would buy any mineral other than diamonds though.

    I guess I'm the rare lucky canadian who has no idea what you're talking about.

    I haven't listened to local radio in years but you have just unlocked that yell from my memory.

    I guess it's good in the sense as they have been able to cut through the mass volume of media we are flooded with daily.

    I'm sad to say that those advertisements worked on me. When a young man needs to buy an engagement ring, name recognition, albeit in a negative light, got me to spend money with them. I just went to the first place that popped in my head.
