No offense taken. Unlike my childhood where I used to navigate via webrings and questionable search engines, these days I rarely visit anything but HN links. So I haven't had much of a need for an ad blocker. Occasionally I'm surprised links like these get to the front page, even with all the ads and horrible UX. I must admit, I too wanted to believe so badly we can communicate with whales, that I managed to scroll down to see the first paragraph below the fold. But quickly closed it shortly after to read the HN comments.
