Sour grapes, et al.

To all those of you enjoying a happy, fulfilling Valentine's Day with your sweetheart, thumbs up to you. Despite the anonymous (and amusing, and hyperbolic =P) efforts of my (eventually-busted) friend Jael, I'm not. So for those of you in the unenviable position of being single on Valentine's Day, chin up: it's just a damn consumerist holiday, created and marketed by folks whose sole interest in the holiday was financial! True story. =] (We now have a non-confabulated holiday to celebrate: Feb. 14th is forum-hound Karmwarrior's birthday. Happy bday Karm!)

Self-proclaimed lazy, unregistered forum-hound "LazySlacker" lit a fire under my ass today about the google ads on my site. A bunch of them are always for gold-selling companies. Now, I've made it clear since the beginning that I think buying gold is a nasty habit which does harm to those around you, but saying "Don't buy gold from the companies advertising on my site" is a little like fighting the drug war by telling kids to "Just Say No".

So I set up a thread on my forum called "Report Gold-selling Ads Here". If you see a gold-selling ad, hit up that thread. And don't buy gold. Also, don't do drugs, and stuff.
