Stop using that Snap.com preview crap. It's ugly, it wastes bandwidth, it interrupts the regular flow of reading, and when you say "disable for all sites" it doesn't really do so.

Quit it.

Ah, but if you use Adblocker, you can set up a rule that says *snap.com* and block it FOREVER.

It's lovely.

Yes, but some people include the javascript for the fecking thing directly in their pages, so I get the AJAX popup, but none of the content.

Stupid bloggers.

Ugh. UGH.

What really drove me up the wall was when Vitamin had them. "Ooh, ooh, we're a magazine for special web people! So here's some really shitty advertising!"



Fucksticks.
